I sent a thank you email for today's phone interview, and the committee head responded by wishing me luck. This doesn't seem like a good sign.
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Hil, think positive! Of course it is a good sign!

I shall try to think positive.
Considering the number of applications I've sent out and the number of applications that each job has been getting, the odds work out pretty well that I'll get a job somewhere. Just not sure where yet.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Continuing job~ma, Hil.
Off to Nottingham to look for houses. *Again*. This is turning into an almost-weekly thing. The things a disabled prospective grad student has to do in order to move. Meanwhile, England is confusing me:
Me: Does Derbyshire exist? Did I make it up?
The Girl: No. You're going to university in it.
Me: OK, then does Nottinghamshire exist? Did I make that up?
The Girl: No. That's the county council that will be paying for your PCAs.
Me: You're sure Derby isn't in Nottinghamshire and I didn't make Derbyshire up?
The Girl: It's in Derbyshire.
Me: And you're sure Nottingham isn't in Derbyshire and I didn't make Nottinghamshire up?
The Girl: *goes away*

Our wings are not tired
I'm floating somewhere in the Caribbean on a cruise ship reflecting on the fact that I lead a very fortunate life. I have a beautiful, intelligent, sexy wife that I met because of this community. I have the best friends I could ever ask for. I have a career and work I don't even believe sometimes.
It is good to be in wonder of the good things sometimes.

Yay wonder! Then you have to go punch someone in the nuts. It's the ebb and flow of life that makes it so amazing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
The cock punch is a magical thing.
You read a very different Harry Potter from the one I bought.
