F*ck You

I had a job interview today. It was at a location that wasn't ideal, but hey a job is a job right?

I went in all chipper. I'd even joked with a guy at the elevator who had a Hydra decal on his laptop. "Hail Hydra!"

Oh yeah. Then it went to shit when I walked in and saw a name on an office who was someone I used to work with. Someone who was an incompetent tool who threw me under the bus to save their own ass. I turned around and walked out.

I wanted to leave altogether, however, I did manage to go back in and complete the interview altho it was not one of my finer ones. I don't know if I want the job if I even were to be offered it.

Happy Birthday to you

The best worst part of a kids birthday party is when you get stuck at one for hours and all you want to do is leave, but you have to give someone a ride home.

Chillin at the playground

Babysat the little one tonight. She's adorable. Tried to convince me she was going ni-night and then I'd catch her jumping on her brother while he was sleeping.

Best part of the night was after I'd left and I got a text telling me that she was crying at the front door for her "Mimi"

Our house

More housecleaning today. Dusted the ceiling fan and washed the inside of the front door. I tell ya, I may pass out from all this excitement.

Radio silence

The most exciting thing I did today was vacuum and febreeze my couch.

Throw it in the bag

Went wandering around the local mall with a friend today.

We're both out of work, looking for our next gig. Call ourselves ladies of leisure.

Take this job

Went back to my old work today.

It was really nice to see old friends and to have everyone tell me how good I looked.

You've got a Friend

Netflix has Friends.

I've been binge watching. I think I've watched over 30 episodes in the last 24 hours. 

Someone help me.

I Love college

6000 auditions for 300 spots.

Sheesh!

Goodbye to you

Wrapped out on the movie today. I'm so ready to go home, but I was a bit sad too.

Here's to finding another project soon! (One that's awesome would be a bonus)

Ultimatum

The problem with throwing them down is that you don't know what the other person will choose and then you have to follow through.

The Cold Swedish Winter

http://www.jenslekman.com/records/smalltalk.htm

I'm a few days behind, I'd checked his website, but got consumed with leaving out of state for work and missed this.

52 new little Jens gems?! I cannot contain my glee!

Oh my little Swedish Hipster, how I adore you.

All the small things

That time you found out the talent is well endowed.

It's totally a worthy conversation of having while at lunch in a crowded restaurant right?

Length? Girth?

On the road again

Back in Louisiana for a week. I'm so ready for this show to be done!

I'll miss the sweet tea tho.

Feels like the first time

Do you have any idea how long it takes to set up a youth on the Xbox One?

Forever.

And they generate usernames, but not like Gamer59746. The Boys had something with Fungus in it.

We got it changed, he is good to play now. Hopefully this will serve a dual purpose. His eye specialist uses gaming as part of vision therapy. The Fiance is just glad he can play Assasins Creed.

Someday I might attempt to set up my own User Account, then again, ain't nobody got time for that.

Cracklin Rosie

I went to see my ankle doctor today. I haven't seen him since before my dream trip, over 7 months ago.

He told me about a new injection we can try, gave me a new scrip for a non narcotic (yay) pain med and a pain cream.

The best part was that as he examined my ankle he said there wasn't the obvious crunching sound that he'd always hear. He also noted that it isn't as swollen as it usually is.

Why can't I be you?

I went to IKEA with The Teen and Fiance today. I noticed her hair is getting longer. She always complains that when it gets long, she cuts it and it takes forever to grow out again. I joked she should cut it. She said if she was going to cut it, she would get and undercut. I asked what that was and as she went on to describe it, I realized it was a style I'd had for many years of my life. I told her that and she said "So, why can't I be you?"

Which only prompted me to start singing The Cure in the middle of IKEA.

Less than amused, she told me to stop and began walking away. I took it as a challenge and looked for opportunities to make the visit more "enjoyable."

Like pointing out every time I saw something with an owl on it and calling her name over and over. Seeing a sign that said "Dansa" and singing "Dansa Queen, young and sweet only seventeen." Taking a plain place mat and moving it under a sign that said "Blanda Mat" 

It was when I took the brightly colored funnels and acted like a FemBot that she took my arm and escorted me from the store.
