the suffering masses yearning to be employed

Sep 11, 2003 19:30

I had a job interview this afternoon. I left early for it, because I am a paranoid, avoidant person, and I loathe driving to places I've never been. I don't know why, because I've obviously never gotten permanently lost. But phobias aren't rational, otherwise I'd be able to explain the nightmare about spiders I had last night. *twitch ( Read more... )

If anyone would like to write a spy crossover while I'm gone, please feel free!

I love those crossovers. Has anyone considered Oliver Sampson from VR5 as a spy, yet? That was back in pre-Buffy days for Anthony Head and he was one hot ear-pierced dude.

VR5, eh? Don't think anyone's mentioned it, but I'll add it to the list.

Mmm... Tony Head...

That would have been me, exactly. And, yeah, I don't get it either because I have rarely actually gotten lost, and the times that I have could not reasonably be considered traumatic in any way, so what gives? *g*

Either he knew me, or I looked super hot in my suit and sunglasses, long hair lifted up by the wind.

I don't know, Shrift, that sounds pretty hot. *g* It sounds a lot like a still from a commercial for some new women's cologne, actually. Like, for hot businesswomen on the go. And, dude, you have a suit? Suits are hot! *g*

Also, I adore your icon!

I wish you much luck with the job, and I hope the martinis were fabulous! *g*

so what gives?

Dude, I've got no clue. Even when I get lost, I'm only a little lost, and always backtrack to where I need to be. I've gotten better about driving to new places over the years, but damn, is that paranoid worry always wiggling around in the back of my head...

Bwahahahahahaha!

And, dude, you have a suit?

Sort of a suit, yeah -- three piece sleeveless suit. I was wearing a beige shirt under it, so I wasn't showing skin. No short skirt, just pants. So I was totally confused by the honking guy. Normally, when guys honk at me, I'm wearing leather pants or something that deserves the honk, y'know?

Also, I adore your icon!

Muchas gracias!

The martinis were fabulous. And I have the mild hangover to prove it. ;)
