Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Other stuff not to waste precious resources on today:

  • loss of all data entered since July.
  • help desk that instead of saying "no, that's not possible", escalates things to me so I can be the one to say "no, that's not possible".
  • help desk software that doesn't exist for the Mac, and the web version repeatedly crashes the only one of my five browsers it will play in after any one action. Read case log. Crash browser. Change status of case to "work in progress". Crash browser. Send email to client. Crash browser. Change status to "resolved". Crash browser. Bang head against wall. Crash browser.
  • George Bush.

Hey. New board.

Cute AND fuel-efficient.

Okay, that's bad.

Boy, I need a new tag! Stat!

If I only had a brain...

. Looks like I'll probably be taking the Research Assistant position that I was offered yesterday and letting down the Center for Women in Politics and Public Policy.

You are a job hunter. You are not letting anybody down.

Turning down != letting down. Letting down is when somebody was entitled to depend on you. Somebody who is interviewing is not entitled to depend on you.

move out and draw fire

I have no energy, or I would send you some, vw.

Here is how much energy I don't have: the church about 5 blocks away is having some sort of shindig, and I am pretty sure that I saw Mary and Jesus icon snowglobes for sale at one of the stalls...and I don't have the energy to walk over and buy one.

I may be dying.

So, then, why does it feel so shitty?

Always Anti-fascist!

Because they get all excited and tell you you're great as they're offering? Or possibly because culturally we still don't accept "No," as a complete sentence? Thoughts?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

vw, remember, the job you don't take goes to someone else who has interviewed and is sitting waiting for the phone to ring and is going to be very happy to have it. Nobody loses here.
