Well, for the past month I've been intensively searching for jobs...it hasn't been easy, since I wanted something out of Albany-Troy area, but not too far north. And...it's hard to interview for a job, knowing that you will be leaving the country for a month and will only be able to start working 2 months after accepting the offer. When mostly they need you to start working yesterday. :)
When I saw this ad two weeks ago, I really went for it; I got the interview, was very confident and forward, it went well and we've found some common ground; at the end of the interview I was bold enough to pop the "May I have the job?" question. Two days later, while driving to Boston I got the phone call from that office; before I answered the call, I was sure they just wanted my references, but when they said that they were offering me the position, I almost went off the highway. Good news. Full-time position, good hours, nice benefits and the pay seems to be competetive. Yesterday I spent the day at the office, shadowing the hygienists, getting aquainted with the staff and the office. Hopefully we'll all work out for each other. My start day is October 1st.
Now...I only have to get my last Board results and the license. By rumors, the results should be in the Office of Professions by the end of August. Keeping my fingers crossed.
On September 2nd I'm flying to Russia to finally visit with my family and friends, whom I haven't seen since 2005. Will be back on the 30th of September, if everything goes well. I'm a bit vary of the situation with Georgia, and tightening relationship between the states and russia. Let's pray, everything is going to be allright. For everyone.

So...that's where I stand today. Full of hopes and emotions.
