Sabotaging my own job search

On Thursday I had an interview for a visa and passport processing job. It pays acceptably, is full time, and is somewhat related to my future career. The interview itself went well but afterwards I felt I hadn’t conveyed a sense that I really wanted the job. I think that’s because I subconsciously don’t. Right now I play with my little girl, read, and bike. If I took this job I’d be processing paper work for 40 hours a week. Do we need the money that badly? Isn’t this a time with Aydan I’ll never get back? Or is my responsibility to suck it up and earn us some money?

On Friday I interviewed with a temp agency. They call me with short-term jobs and I decide whether or not I’ll take it. That sounds like a better recipe for an enjoyable family summer.
