Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The next job I want is, I'm pretty certain, the one I interviewed for this morning.
Which was a subsequent round for the thing I asked for ~ma for a week or so back. And I think it's all gone well, except that I'm exhausted and brain-fried enough that I don't really know anything for sure. Except I'm sure that I went yarn shopping and had tacos on the way home. That's the right answer no matter how it went, yes?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Holy moly, I have to put on a dang conference tomorrow. Please lie to me and tell me there's plenty of time between now and then to finish everything that needs to get done. Argh!
Also? TGFCoffee

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Plenty of time, Burrell!
I'll need to remember that paragraph for my next application. Though I'll remove the word grok, though that's a surprisingly useful word.
Maybe leave in grok and take out dick? But I don't know your audience.

Good point, I should probably remove the colloquialisms and up the business fluff factor.

Well, bless a duck. Just got my rental renewal notice. They want to jack up my rate by $220/month. Over the past 7 years I've NEVER had that much of a leap in rent.
Underlines why I'm buying the townhouse. (still no word on the appraisal). From the estimates from my loan officer - mortgage, insurance, taxes, and HOA come to less than $100 more than I'm paying now. Then there are the non-monitary pros of owning my own place. I can paint. I can change anything around that I want. I will live in a neighborhood where neighbors know eachother. I will have a back yard. I won't avoid inviting people over.
Everytime I have the OMG am I doing the right thing, I think of those things above. I think of not worrying year after year over what I'll need to pay. I think of having buffistas visit.

Absolutely! And good luck.
You can do it, Burrell!
Have we already made fun of the NY Times "Unplugging Without FOMO" article?
Is that the new "I don't even own a television"?

Hey! Bay Area peeps! I'm trying to plan for our knock-wood-will-happen vacation in July, and while plane tickets are cheap, I'm stymied by lodging.
Where would you guys recommend? I swear, it's more expensive to go to SF than it is to Hawaii...
