What I'm trying to say

I have an interview! For an internship! In LA! It's with a production company that, in and of itself, I've never heard of--but they have some kind of association with Radar Pictures, which seems to have released every movie my junior-high self ever loved. I mean: The Cutting Edge! COME ON! I interview Tuesday, after which all my part-time working- ( Read more... )

Sends tons of good vibes and prayers your way for your interview and the speedy healing of your sun burn.

Also, I have always kind of wanted to read Julia Child's My Life in France because (1) it's Julia Childs and (2) it's Julia Childs IN FRANCE. Glad to know I would not be disappointed if I did so.

Thanks! I really do want the internship, and could use the prayer--personally and professionally. It's a super-exciting step forward, though it comes the need to find a sublet, the reality of moving, the reality of LA, etc.

As for the sunburn, it's not the worst I've had, but it's pretty pink. Boo.

OMG, Heather. As a Francophile, you would love it. Beware, though: you'll be pining for Paris like no other. And, um, fatty food. Just saying.

Internship interview! Yay! Good luck!

That's so cool about your dad. Mine has been talking about retiring soon, possibly next year. I'll be interested to see what happens when he does.

I've considered the 30-day TV meme too, but I definitely don't have the patience or dedication for posting thirty days in a row. I was playing around with doing it all at once, like a meme with thirty questions.

Thanks! I'm excited.

It's such a crazy thought: you work for like half your life, and then one day, you just...stop. I think it's a big life adjustment, but how exciting must it be to suddenly have all that free time?

Now that's an interesting idea. It might take awhile, but at least you wouldn't find yourself slacking. Hmmm.

I (heart) Julia Child, as you know.

I do know!

And make a buerre blanc saunce.

I'm surprised you're not throwing mayo down the toilet yet.

But still avoid aspic for the disgusting foulness that it is.

Ugh! Gross gross gross. Every time she mentions anything even remotely aspic-like, I feel like shouting, "No, Julia! Not the savory Jell-o!" I can't believe aspic was A Thing.

I loved My Life in France. It's making my mouth water just thinking about it. I want some delicious chicken now (preferably with a lemon up its butt. /Toby Ziegler)

Sending you mucho good vibes/thoughts about the internship!
