Can you tell I don't want to work today?

The job that I do already is being spun off into a more specialized niche, one that I want. The job was posted internally today, and now I have to apply and interview for it. Oh joy. I'm not looking forward to this, because the last time I interviewed for a job (this job) was 25 years ago, but on the other hand, I want to get it over with. Application is due by next Friday. Wish me luck!
