ring…ring…
“who’s calling?”
…look at phone…
“it’s steve!”
…yes!…
“hey, steve!”

those were the beginnings of a big phone call; a call that i’ve been waiting for.

when we get to phoenix i’ll be working as a field service engineer. my boss will be, ted. ted’s boss is steve. steve called me because all of my peeps (love you guys!!!) in phoenix have been telling ted and steve that they would recommend that i be chosen to fill the open requisition in phoenix for a hematology engineer.

well, today that paid off. steve got down to business and asked me if moving to phoenix to take the open position was what i wanted to do.

ummmm, yeah!

i told steve that if it didn’t work out that it wouldn’t be for lack of effort on my part. i told him that the house was for sale (and has had two showings already!), and that we were prepared to go. he let me know that i had his support and that he would be meeting with his boss in brea, ca; and that he would also tell him about my interest.

ted is on vacation this week, so when he returns, i’m hoping that steve will get a chance to talk to him about it. ted, steven says, will make the final decision, but i’ll tell you; i’m pretty encouraged so far.

i won’t be able to breathe a sigh of relief until it’s officially official that it’s officially official, if you know what i mean. sooo, it’ll be a long weekend and i’ll be anxious at the start of next week until i have the chance to talk to ted about it again. today was a big day, and that call was a very. big. phone. call.
