It might be nice to think of a gap as a break.

Yeah, except I want it to be MY gap, chosen because I've set the date for my new job to start. Not because I just don't have a new job. That kind of gap isn't restful at all, you know?

In other fabulous news: [link] My favorite bit is how the Oakland PD has one part-time investigator for over 10,000 burglaries a year. According to another article I saw yesterday, Oakland's robbery/burglary rate is the highest in the country. Three times higher than in Richmond.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That kind of gap isn't restful at all, you know?

Well yeah, I do. The summer after I got fired, even though I knew pretty quickly I'd be going to grad school in the fall, I had to work to make it close to a vacation. I was pretty depressed, though.

Not on, Boston drivers! (World infamous for their rough rude ways.)

I almost don't blame them, because what else were they going to do? But STILL.

Right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just saw an ad for FarmersOnly.com, a dating site aimed at farmers and ranchers.

Compassionately intolerant

I first heard about Farmersonly.com on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

They pointed out that, not only do that have a very niche client base, but also a groovy jingle.

It really is quite catch.

Please tell me it said "Territory Folks Should All Be Neighbors." PLEASE.

But the rest of the traffic was going that speed? I feel like suddenly slowing down before a green light is more dangerous. Memorial Drive.

Damn it, I just earwormed myself.

I deserved that.
