I am back from my interview and, basically, it went...  I think that after every other interview that I've had in my life I've felt really good about it; this one not so much.  The guy I was interviewing with was very aggressive, not mean, just aggressive.  He kept harping on how my most recent job was basically backsliding from my previous two jobs.  I was honest and didn't try to talk the job into something that it wasn't.  What I did say was that it was only 9 months out of a 13 year work history.  I also said that, although it wasn't an ideal position, the job market being what it was, I was glad to have found a job in my field at all.
I think that most people who have done this, but pre-interview I had imagined my whole life working for this guy.  I had come around to the idea of working full time.  I would rather be working than here at home.  I'm disappointed, because even if the interview went better than I think that it did, the guy isn't moving very quickly.  He said that he's looking to fill the position in the first half of the year.  I really can't wait that long.
I'm going to lay on the couch and watch the Food Network now.
UPDATE:
I decided to look on Craigslist to see if there were any jobs for today.  BCFG has a job posted (it names the company, so I know that it's them).  It looks like K was promoted to R's job and now they are looking to fill K's position.  This really feels like kicking a person when they are down.
