Okay super uber quick pre-SPN update on the state of me.
Kitty - whose name is more or less officially "Bean", though I'm still clinging to Freyja as a "formal" name. Whatever that means.
Anyway, she's groovy. Fell asleep with her paws on my face last night. She has also sworn blood vengeance on anything that performs the verb "fasten". Buttons, snaps, zippers, etc - she must eat them to avenge some ancient wrong done to her and all her kitty line or something.
POINT OF THIS POST!
OMG, people.
Today I went to the interview for the (2nd) job I wanted at the same law firm that canceled my interview re: the "will train" legal secretary thingy and then ASKED FOR ME in particular a few days later when another position came along working for the head of the paralegal dept. Much more straight up admin/exec asst type role, lots of editing/proofreading and an opportunity to pick up a lot of her drafting/writing stuff too.
I was not out of the building yet when my placement agency called me and said - "how was the interview? you feel good about it? you still want it?" and I say "oh yes, bladiblah, the more I hear the more I think it'd be a great fit, etc" and she goes "good. because they've made an offer to you of [insert figure that was at the upper range of what I'd DARED HOPE]".
Then I almost -- only due to the grace I'd put on my body to perform the interview did I not -- got tangled up and knocked to the ground by the revolving door. I wasn't out of the building yet.
I am agog. I start on the 13th.
I also am going to watch SPN right now.
And my tummy is EXTREMELY FULL of really awesomecakes celebratory Indian food.
Wow you guys. *beams, blinking in stunned-stupid shock*
ETA:
Check Jared there in the background, to the right of Jensen's head.
mona1347: DUDE, they are PIGTAILS
They are the best thing in the HISTORY OF EVER
poisontaster: THEY TOTALLY ARE!
WHY IS IT HE CAN MAKE FUCKING PIGTAILS HOT??
mona1347: I want a bendable, pose-able, action-figure!Jared with shades and fucking PIGTAILS of my very own.
poisontaster: That's NOT FAIR
mona1347: I HAVE NO IDEA
It's the amazing power of his hotass
poisontaster: FOR SERIOUS
mona1347: it's the fact that he's just rockin them
poisontaster: He totally is. With the Jaggeresque sunglasses.
mona1347: the confidence. his fabulosity quotient is OFF THE GODDAMN CHARTS
poisontaster: FOR SERIOUS.
mona1347: yeah - dear god
poisontaster: He wears a lot of shit I'd look askance at with any other man.
mona1347: I know I KNOW *holds head* and it's just because, like, he DOESN'T CARE. And that's the sexiest thing ever
poisontaster: YES.
mona1347: I think Jared's like one of those guys who couldn't manage to put together matching socks and might forget his pants because his new underwear are so snug and warm and comfy when left to his own devices.
poisontaster: YES
mona1347: So he's got PEOPLE now to do that shit for him and he's just like "*big, puppy shrug* Sure! I mean it's you guy's job to make me look pretty. What the hell do I know? *BIG JAYRED GRIN*" and puts the freaking shirt on.
poisontaster: HEE. Yes.
