Tom:
I'm sitting near a Texan who's skyping to a friend back in Austin. He keeps talking about how tanned he is. He is not.
Rizzo:
Interview went well this morning. Only took 15--20 minutes though. Feeling pretty hopeful, not 100% sure though. Also got a callback from submitting some of my writing to come in for a second interview at the software company. If I get the job today I will call and cancel the interview but if I don't get it I guess I'll go along and see what's on offer.
It's hard to weigh up cause given that the software company said it was down to me and another dude and given they responded within an hour of me submitting my writing I'm fairly sure they want to offer me the job. But I don't really want to work there. It sounds like it'd be stressful, minimal/no room for growth, pay isn't as good. However, pros - closer to home, better hours, possibly more challenging work.
ARGH!
Also, I am an idiot. The modem here keeps dropping the connection, which is mildly annoying. So I went to the computer shop today to pickup a specific modem I had been recommended. Ended up walking out with another router since they didn't have the particular one I wanted... Do you see the problem here?
So now I have a useless router that I need to return. Oh well, gives me something to do tomorrow.
Edit:
GOOD NEWS EVERYONE. I got the office job, working with Jimmy. Huzzah!

If his definition of a tan is like my definition of a tan, then what he really means is he doesn't have to worry about blinding people as much with his skin. Lets put it this way - one summer one of my friends said that I could use the underside of my wrists as a self defense mechanism to blind attackers. When I "tan", I don't blind people as much.
Unless he's still blinding people with his paleness, then yes, he would be sadly misinformed.

I very badly want to go back to school and get my Master's in Forensic Accounting, but I would more likely than not have to take a year off from work to do so. I can't afford to do that. I have roughly eleven months to figure this out/win lottery.
Verergoca:
Right, today my basement went from this:
to this:
.
Took 2 trips with a van filled to capacity (and i think i went over the weightlimit on the last trip. Loads of wood!). Tomorrow, one more trip, and then we can start making something out of the thing.
Im tired now :)
