Unplugging the Virtual Torture Machine

blimey (BLY-mee) interjection

An expression of surprise, dismay, etc.

[Contraction of "blind me" or "blame me", from "God blind/blame me";
sometimes heard in the form gorblimey or corblimey.]

It's increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of humor about this waiting game. At this point, based on a fairly recent (probably ill-advised) email correspondence, I'm certain the committee held many sessions of interviews; I simply attended the first round. That being said, I must now begin to accept rejection. From this day forward, I will no longer check the website for an official rebuke, but, in its stead, assume it. If they choose me, I will receive a packet by mail and that--that ghost--would arrive just days after an online decision.

Now I must find a new job before it elicits a psychotic break.
