So I've been sort of absent lately, even though I've been reading my LJ every day. I've been doing that thing where I write a massive LJ post in my head, and the longer I wait to actually write it out, the more stuff happens that I feel I have to cram in. But it's becoming way too much, and if I don't just post already, I'm worried I never will ( Read more... )

The Bad* News: As of Thursday, I will once again be unemployed. SIGH.

The Good News: ... I can go to the midnight showing of the new Harry Potter now?

The OMGWTFPIGINAPLAYHOUSE News: True Blood is some cracked out shit, you guys. Like, they're crazy, but they OWN IT. I sort love it. (HI HOYT HI! ♥)

The OKAYTHATISPRETTYAWESOMETRUESTORY News: ( Read more... )

Oh, my intertubular friends! I fail so hard at internet! /o\

Um. I went to a Torchwood con last weekend? Correction: I went to a CURSED Torchwood con last weekend. Kai Owen (Rhys) had to pull out for personal reasons, John Barrowman hurt his ankle and couldn't fly, and Tom Price (PC Andy) was run down by a dude on a bike and his arm was broken! I ( Read more... )

Please allow me to demonstrate the difference between normal people's friends and my own, via text message:

Me: OMFG. Some dudes just walked by my office talking - loudly - about beastiality and golden showers. IDEK.

scrunchy: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

And that might be were a normal person's conversation would end... but not with my friends:

scrunchy: Wait, ( Read more... )

• I went home this weekend for Mother's Day, and even though I was basically only away from home a day and a half, it felt SO MUCH LONGER. I feel like I've been on vacation for a while or something, and I'm sort of bumbling around, vaguely out of touch with everyone. I do not approve.
  
  
• I also have this job now, which means I'm slowly growing more ( Read more... )

Thing One: I FINALLY HAVE A JOB!! \o/ This is all pretty crazy, because when I woke up this morning, I still didn't have a job or any real promising prospects, and then TWO separate temp agencies called me, and one offered an interview and one a job, and because I'm a smart cookie, I took the job! It's a temp accounting position - 3 or 4 months, ( Read more... )

So, I just went to what I thought was going to be a job interview, but turned out to be a pitch for jobs as insurance agents -- which, no offense to anyone who might do that for a living, but... no. Not for me, thanks ( Read more... )

I feel like I've been in Merlin fandom all of five minutes, and already people feel the need to aim their stream at my Cheerios. DO NOT WANT. Why can't I just enjoy the silly, adorable, shiny new thing without making it into something all MEANINGFUL and IMPORTANT? *long-suffering ( Read more... )

So, I'm probably heading up to Chicago tomorrow to start looking for a job; I'm looking for something in an office, or possibly front desk/reception. I've got an appointment Tuesday morning with a temp agency, but I'm totally open if anyone has any leads or suggestions.

(Feel free to drop me a private email, if you'd rather.)

So. In an interesting turn of events... Bossboy just gave me two weeks' notice.
