Are you going to attempt to be the Chocolate Mistress then? You could always work to the end, then take the unemployment and use the semi-paid time off to look for a joB in the field of that fancy degree you went and got yourself...

I applied to Godiva last night. Dianna told Ale who called Bill (the DM) and said to look out for my application. I also found 3 or 4 jobs this morning I wish to send my resume to.

Bill's a...Dungeon Master? Huh. I never would have thought you for a Dungeons and Dragons type.

Oh ho, little did you know that I played a text based RPG for probably close to 3 or 4 years (rifts mud).
