scared

I had a scare today. I got a letter in the mail from UCLA. From the looks of the envelope, it was a rejection letter (yes, after a while, one can sort of tell). I was so nervous that I couldn't make myself even open it for a while - the UCLA job is at the top of my hope list.

So eventually I did open it, and it *was* a rejection letter, but *not* for the position I relly want. It was for another UCLA thing that I applied to a long time ago, and since I really didn't think I had much chance, I pretty much forgot about it (until now).

The whole thing has left me quite nervous and in need of some sort of voodoo or otherwise magical spells for good job luck.
