Obviously.
Warm enough this evening?

*quirks eyebrow*
That sounds like a dodgy chat up line. But yes, I mostly am: hands are cold cos they're out of the covers but I've just turned the electric blanket up and the rest of me is toasty.

It isn't a dodgy chat-up line. It was a genuine question regarding how comfortable you are!
How is the prep going for the interview?

I know it wasn't!
Nobody ever chats me up, not even online. Prep is, erm. Well, I've done about 10 minutes of work since arriving home 90 minutes ago! I'll get it finished before I go to bed though.

I still think it'll be worth taking the panel some cake, just to break the ice.*
*break the ice, as in your initial introduction, not to help them clear frozen ponds.

BLOWN AWAY as I'm sure they would be
by my awesome cake making skills, I rather think they are interested in my science skills and will assess me only on those. Cake would be both redundant and unprofessional.

Do you reckon?
I think you under estimate the power of cake.

I'd be impressed.
Especially if it was nice cake Bob.

Day one when you're hired maybe
at the interview it just says 'hello I'm fucking weird, don't hire me'

It would display charm.
I once interviewed a bloke who'd bought his guitar to the interview (to be fair, he had called me previously and said that unfortunately he'd need to have it with him as he was playing a gig later and it wasn't something he normally carried).

I made him play me a song.

Au contraire
I just don't think it has a place in the interview process.

How you worked out what you're going to wear?
A sports jacket with leather patches on the elbows suggests 'academic' to me.
(, Thu 9 Dec 2010, 23:21, Reply)
Male 40+ academic, sure
I shall be suited and booted. Well. Suited and heeled, technically.

Do you wear glasses?
If not, get some. It'll make you look dead clever.
(, Thu 9 Dec 2010, 23:30, Reply)
I do wear glasses
albeit infrequently. But I shall be wearing them in my interview for precisely that reason (and also that I want to be able to read the damn paper I have to present)
Anyhoo. I have to go sleepytime now. Night!
