Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I had a job interview today! I presented myself as a professional!

Excellent! They should hire you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do you want the job, flea?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

There's an A Winter's Tale joke here somewhere ("Exit, pursued by a bear), but I can't quite get there.

I made a bear once. They bought a giant bear, unstuffed it, and couldn’t figure out why a person could not get into the destuffed bear. Please note that people have shoulders and stuffed bears do not have shoulders.

DCP, despite all its problems, that is my favorite episode, Or perhaps Espensode, because I think it is a Jane one

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Great minds, DCP, I flashed on that scene too. *g*

As of today, I am considered fully vaccinated! I will be celebrating this momentous event by getting a haircut from my erstwhile stylist, Curtis, who just opened a new salon in Hayes Valley this week. The last haircut I got from him (or anyone) was in August 2019 so right now I'm deciding if I'm going to get it cut for Locks of Love or similar or not.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woo megan walker!

This was a first round zoom interview, and I liked the person who interviewed me and what she had to say about the organization. There will be a second round of interviews with the actual supervisor. So we’ll see. It’s with a grant-making nonprofit, as a program manager.
