So, I applied (internally) for a new job where I work.  I had the last of three interviews first thing yesterday morning.  I know for a fact that they made a decision yesterday at lunchtime.  Now I'm waiting to hear something.  I am horrible at waiting.  I keep looking at the clock.  Even if it's to tell me to go jump off a cliff, I with they'd just call.

Waiting is the worst!!!!!

Ugh.  Good luck!  I'm sure you wowed them!

I'm not sure why they do wait so long.

I went to Chicago this weekend and fell in love with the city. I had such a good time.

Turns out Chicago Pride was being held this weekend also, which I wasn't aware of at the time the trip was made. Ping Ping wanted to go so I went with him and some friends of ours and was, of course, amused greatly by the glaring hypocrisy. One section of the parade had people marching with signs denouncing intorlerance and urging acceptance of all people from all walks of life. Right behind them marched a group with a big red sign that said "Death to the GOP" with a picture of the republican elephant with its brains blown out.

Peace, love and tolerance for all unless you don't vote the way we tell you to vote. Then we want you dead.

Why is it called a "five o'clock shadow" when I can see new stubble already at noon?

Maybe, in the olden days, it took people from Sun up till five to grow their facial hairs partially back?  :|

I never knew that smiting a dead user could be so much fun.  But I've given Asterisk a butload of smitings over the past few several days.

Do you happen to be the one who smites me three times daily regardless of whether I post or not?

The most egregious error was subject verb agreement.

That, my good man, was a typo.

Ok, no I didn't. Apparently I'm the only one in the whole internet who read it right.

Speaking of which.  Getting oil based primer on one's nipples is not that pleasant either.  I could kill Sandy.  She can't paint since she's with child, so I'm stuck doing the painting for our kitchen remodel.  Well, she bought oil based primer instead of water based.  Well I was painting in just my boxers, since it was still pretty hot and I was too lazy to put on work clothes.  Well I'm still quite spotted today, including on my nipples.  The acetone didn't work too well and burned like hell so I guess I'll just wait for it all to wear off as I replace my skin over the next couple of weeks.  FEH!
