I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

If I only had a brain...

Also, if you have a sweetie, the sweetie will glitter, very likely in embarrassing places.

The shower of glitter when I take off my nightgown in the morning is either magical or weird; haven't decided.

How resourceful of Kat!

Cool, Deena. I'm glad you can get your own copy. All this Lush talk, I feel all glittery by proxy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

if you have a sweetie, the sweetie will glitter, very likely in embarrassing places.

And if you have a groundfighting partner, his wife might ask strange questions.

I love the shower of glitter when I start jumping jacks, and then there are the rivulets of glitter, and how they get on your gear, and your partner's gear, and then you're faced with a student you've not been near yet, and they're glittering too.

Do they have any products with silver glitter? I only use the jasmine thingie with blue and gold, but I'm much more of a silver sort of girl.

There was a silver glitterbug, I think.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Argh.

My machine got a call today while I was at work. Robert Half, Inc needed a Mac tech support guy.

I'll try and call them back tomorrow morning and explain I am at a temporary job and that I might be interested, as the temp job was supposed to only be 3-4 weeks, but was swapped to a 6-8 week.

I doubt it will still be open, though. Sigh.

Not only is new job boring (I got 12 calls in 8 hours), they have removed windows games, internet access, and printing from the NT4.0 they are running on Pentium II machines with 64 MB of RAM.

I will endure new job, as it may pick up, but I regret missing the call.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Kristin has a new old tag.

I am zonked.

Also, I finally saw the new Alias.

The hell?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

ita, I'd be glad to make you some bombs with just silver glitter, if you like. e-mail me.

It's time for me to go to sleep. Love you all.

Night!

There's no need to grovel, Deena, although it's fun to be begged. Just sent me an e-mail so I remember.

Daniel--if you get the better job, quit the temp job. It's a temp job. They wouldn't hesitate to fuck you over if they suddenly didn't need you.

Or maybe I'm just in a bad mood because there is something seriously fucked up about the new glasses I just picked up, and it's not something hugely obvious like "everything I look at is blurry". It's just when I look at things not straight-on...

Thrive to spite them

Take Meara's advise, if something better comes along jump ship, especially if it could turn into a permenent position. The second place I temped at (for only one day -- thank god) I was told I could leave early if I wanted, but I was being responsible and said no. I was told that no one had worked past noon, for some reason they always left and didn't come back.

After one day I found out why. MY GOD! It was horrible and disorganized. Blech.
