Yeah, so I didn’t get the job… I’m pretty darn disappointed at the moment, though supremely confident that it will pass eventually. In the meantime… yep, still disappointed. But they basically told me that what I lacked, and what the other candidate possessed, was “experience writing about really arcane industries” – so that’s not exactly… Continue reading Blogs: “Bad News Made Easy”

So, it’s still a sick cruel world, in some ways – but in its less cruel side, both of the two people who were waiting for some piece of good news got it. And good things always come in threes, right? C’MON!!!!! Plus, congrats on all the good happenings. I think I might take a… Continue reading Sick cruel world, pt. 2

So I almost asked in the beginning of this post (i.e. this sentence right here, yes, the one you are currently reading) what the damn difference was between “miscellany”, which seems like a fake word designed by idiots too lazy to type out the full “miscellaneous”, but then I decided to look it up (online,… Continue reading Miscellany, apparently

This is such a tease. I mean, whose sick joke idea IS this? I’m going to go check my email now.

Yep, it’s been a fascinating less-than-twenty-four-hour period since my last blog posting. Allow me to enlighten you as to some of my activities and goings-on: 1) Still don’t know if I have the job. 2) Dined purely by happenstance with a local celebrity last night, whose name shall remain unmentioned as I’m sure he would… Continue reading Ten interesting revelations

So I mentioned (once or twice) that I am becoming seriously obsessive-compulsive. Perhaps, even, I’ve mentioned it in the past couple of days. Well. There have been some recent activities at my place of employment that have brought out my most direly obsessive compulsive tendencies to date. Allow me to expand: We have a new… Continue reading OCD (yeah you know me), Take 2

…that I’m still checking my email compulsively? Just FYI. I am.

Yep, today’s spam email subject lines in my “Bulk” folder are by far the best, particularly because they came in succession. The names are just likely names of real people (well, I don’t know how likely, but they weren’t Cialisss4uxxxx or some variation thereupon) but the sujbects, aah the subjects. At least spam is getting… Continue reading Ladies and gentlemen, we have four (4) winners!

Yep, OCD, yeah, you know me. I cannot stop checking my email every 3.78 minutes. And the irony is, this is the ONE email account to which I have no functional messenger program linked that might notify me of the arrival of new messages, and yet it’s also the one account to which I am… Continue reading I have become deeply obsessive-compulsive

I went to my first spinning class this morning, and it was AWESOME. Not only did it give me a great workout and help me feel better about cycling in general, but she did it to kickass classic rock tunes instead of the usual cheesy aerobic workout-techno type stuff. So cool! I’ve been singing a… Continue reading spin, span, spun
