As a fellow member of the contraband coffee brigade (seriously, I troll our conference rooms with my giant travel mug at 9:05 every morning) I'm vibing interview~ma to you in bushels, shrift.

Thanks, JZ. I'm trying to get through Christmas without going into credit card debt, and things aren't looking so good. Whee.

And if I totally bomb the interview tomorrow, I'll just go apply at Borders. They're going to need part-time holiday help, right? Right.

I'm glad that my dogs are happy to gobble up IAMS.

Kathy, did you find your info? Apparently the NY ballot question "passed overwhelmingly."

THANK YOU, JESSE!!!! That totally saved my ass today.

I'd get over there today if at all possible if you're serious about this. At B&N, we've got just about all of our holiday hiring done, except for maybe another position at the cafe. They've got the schedules already written for Thanksgiving weekend, and we're having our holiday meeting on Sunday (frickin' 7:00 in the frickin' morning, and that's after going to a party the night before!).

Oh, great. One more thing for me to freak out about.

Punishingly Intricate

We thought dog-specific food was the neatest shiniest thing, but they wouldn't touch it and wanted their hot meal instead.

Who could blame them?

What will I get for lunch today? I don't think my breakfast took. I've been hungry since I ate it. And it was normal-sized for me (two slices whole wheat baguette toast w/ avocado & lemon yogurt w/ handful of raspberries & sliced banana & glass rubyred grapefruit juice).

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Holy crap holy crap holy crap.

Um...I'll be needing a bunk to be in in New York in August or September.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Without clicking, I'ma guess that link has something to do with nekkid Daniel Radcliffe on Broadway.

You might be okay on holding off until the weekend, shrift. It's just that when I was hired at Waldenbooks back in 1995, I had applied at just about this time of the month and got the last open position there. (I didn't start until after Thanksgiving because I felt it necessary to give two weeks notice at the Avenue I was then working at, even though the manager didn't do the same--she walked out on Black Friday, leaving the asst. manager she couldn't stand in charge, with the district manager coming in to fill in).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

THANK YOU, JESSE!!!! That totally saved my ass today.

Woo hoo! At least I've accomplished something.
