Speaking of jobs...If any of the DCistas know anyone with wait-staff experience who is looking for a job, Starfish is desperate for help. Patrick, the bartender (and possible owner, not sure) tried to recruit everyone at my table last night. He also mentioned that you get a 'shift meal.' The food is pretty good!
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Oh- I also never heard back from my student worker so I guess she has "quit" or "been fired" or whatever. Thank god!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Re: Andy Rooney
I've been lucky most of my life, but I've been out of work a few times too so I know what it is like not to have a good job or enough money.
When, exactly, the fuck was that? When he was 5?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Maybe I'll just get this and send him over the edge: [link]
Gnaaaaah.
Why the hell is Andy Rooney still on the air?

Thanks for the advice, bonny!! I put that into an email to Mom.
They are being strict about not feeding her human food, although she was really begging when they had pizza last night.
Any advice on dog food options? The foster family had her on Iams, and I told her to check with her vet on what he thinks might be a good brand.

He's totally turned into the "Kids keep the hell offa' my lawn! And eat your goddamn oatmeal" guy, huh?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was just saying that I could totally be Andy Rooney for a new generation. I'm cranky about all kinds of things! "I was reading this blog the other day..."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Rooney should talk to plumbers and electricians and then he'd discover that they're out of a job, too. Jerk.
and seriously, does he not understand that to be a good plumber, electrician, or brick layer are skilled jobs? On a construction site I am qualified to pick stuff up. Even with the home stuff I've done. DH can do more, but he has experience. No one that has been middle management can instantly become a plumber

Yeah, that was pretty stupid. Actually, I bet he did have some struggling reporter years, but when you have to reach back forty years for the memory...not so much with the relevant. Go back to the fruit stand, AR.
