My niece's SO has a three-day interview, starting today, for a tenure-track position at the University of Georgia. I was astonished when he told me, because he only has a Master's, but the field is so new, nobody has a PhD. Man, I hope he gets it. This position would be amazingly good for both him and my niece.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Teppy, this house is at the way other end of that street from the urgent care - literally 6 houses off the square just where Dewey's Pizza is. Through traffic is something I wonder about, though.

Oh, that's way better! For some reason I think of Markbreit as being that 2-block stretch that dumps into 71. But I suspect that end sees its fair share of through traffic, especially since it's so close to the square.

Oh, sure. That's what tomorrow needs. Yet another deadline that I don't have time to meet. Especially when I'm taking acetaminophen and can't drink.
So much NOPE.

We discovered this morning how to get my boss doing actual work: have our events manager argue with her (yell at her).

I looked over and caught Ply mid-yawn. Seeing your cat staring at you with a gaping mouth full of sharp teeth is disturbing, to say the least. It makes me leery of her intentions towards me.
ION, my neighbors finally Gave me their insurance info so I can get their daughter off of mine.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Going to see Book of Mormon tonight...for the second time. Going with a friend and her teenage son. Like most 16-year-olds, he is never impressed by ANYTHING, but he's a die-hard South Park fan and I think he's going to be blown away. Fun to share that with experience with him and his mom.

I like Scrappy's night the best. Me, I'm not going to a networking mixer on the basis that I don't have any business cards printed up, because my printer is screwed up.
Still have the rental car. I should hear back from the garage tomorrow, I hope....
