Anyone else want letters? :D (...please give me something to do?)
In other news, getting a job with Amazon is a pretty slow process. My application was successfully processed and they will "get back to [me] with a start date in a couple weeks." They had told me at the application/drug test session that it takes 3-4 weeks for Amazon to process on their end and get people started, so... here's hoping it's fewer weeks rather than more. In the meantime, I think I'm good re: unemployment since I get 26 weeks of it, and that should go through the new year unless I start this job. So I think I'm financially stable for the moment, if not in the greatest of shape -- I'll take stable over uncertain anyday.
Unrelated, I kind of love Google Books. I can get epubs/pdfs of books they have on full preview. So I can read things googlebooks offers without having to squint at my screen and fail at avoiding other distractions. YAY FOR KINDLE. (I download the epub and convert to mobi, rather than the pdf. I find epubs convert better than pdfs, and my Kindle's screen is generally too small for unconverted pdfs)
