I slept all day Sunday, basically, and I'm still tired. Had interesting apocalyptic dreams, at least.
Oh well, another day in the expense report mines.
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Completely trivial hivemind question - this ad has been showing up constantly on Hulu, and the guy who plays the dad is giving me such Hey-it's-that-guyness it's driving me bananas. I can't find a cast list for the ad anywhere, and I'm seeing the damn guy every 12 minutes every time we go to Hulu. I've seen him before, in an actual not-a-commercial performance, I'm positive; I just have no freaking idea where or when! Someone help? Hey, it's that guy! I think. Who?

I've been assuming that he just looks like Whatshisname in The Expanse. Amos.

I have no idea what The Expanse even is, so I'm pretty sure I don't remember him from that!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Husband talked to recruiter for over an hour.
Good: Has the potential to be husband's dream job. Would pay well and cover relocation.
Weird: They're still weirdly coy about not only the company name, but also the location, but he was willing to say it was within 100 miles of Louisville. So.
Waiting: Gotta see if husband makes it to an interview with the actual company, at which point I presume they'll admit who they are.
I'm still trying not to stress about the unknown.

Huh. Well, good luck. Dream job would be nice, wherever it is.
I forgot to take all my meds the last couple of days and I hate everyone and everything. Just have to say that somewhere.

It sounds like Homer Simpson's dream job that turned out to be for a megalomaniac trying to take over the world. Homer resigned while his boss was in a firefight with people trying to stop him, but his boss was very nice about it all.

I'm wondering why they wouldn't reveal the name of the company by the point they get to requesting interviews. Do Amway or Scientology use recruiters to fill corporate positions?
