"I trust you."  Why?  What's the basis?  The statement was made by a co-worker when I asked if he'd like a verification e-mail for a meeting I set-up for him.  Keep in mind that this is the first time we've spoken- I might've gotten two, "Hi"s from him during the 3 months I've been there (can we say, "shy"?)  I don't know if there is even a basis, or if he really cares or what, but it's crazy to me that some people trust so easily (at least with small things like that that don't matter too much in the long-run), and others don't trust someone who's more than proven themselves...  As far as trusting me to do what I've said I've done or will do at work goes, it is a pretty sure bet- I hardly make mistakes there- but there are some important things going on, so if I make a mistake on one of those things, then there is reason to be iffy or not trust me.  Especially if you don't have any experience with me going-through on my word, because you've never dealt with me before.  Maybe I have a good reputation ("HA!" to that- I know there's mixed reviews- with one vocal woman at work trying to drive me out)...  I don't know how much I trust/believe others.  Ideally, I'd like to believe what they say, but usually it's based on whether I believe it's plausible more than anything else.  As far as Amber goes, when she gives advice, or something of the sort, especially about hair for some reason, I give her a "look" or am not convinced until I go out in the world or try it out for a few days, and then think it's good... One of the things that she says too often is, "See, I told you..."  This often has to do with guys, too- one thing that she pointed out is that even though she's never dated, etc., God has given her insight or words into mine and others' situations.  I think that's cool, and shows that God does reveal things, and it's not just all our own doing and scheming and reflecting.

The interview went well yesterday, and I'm excited about it, but they do have a second interview with someone else Monday, so I'll be contacted Monday afternoon/evening about whether I get a second interview.  That's kind of hard to accept, but just because I had my heart set on it- I think my steps are guided, and if I don't get it, there's a better and more perfect place I'm supposed to be at!

It's sunny and beautiful out today, and the flowers (especially irises) are bigger and more healthy-looking than I've seen in the Midwest, but they do have milder winters here...  It had been rainy and cloudy all week, so that makes today extra-special.
