Congratulations!

Now you can start looking forward to recovering your freedom in 25 years time.

Congrats, BeoPuppy! Aw, he's so cute.

I went to an interview today for a volunteer thingy and they asked me which website I would want to be. I hate getting questions like that, which could have so many potentially awesome answers, in situations where I don't really have time to think. Especially situations in which I am nervous, and thus tend to blank easily. Anyways! No idea how it went. I won't know until September 15th. It would be a pretty substantial amount of work, so not getting it means more free time and time for another potential, paying job, but getting it means relevant experience and social stuff. Both things are kinda okay, so I'm not fretting it. Much. However, one question: Is it normal to immediately come up with better (still not great, but, you know, not sucky) answers to every single question once you're out the door? This has happened to me on both the interviews I've been to (yes, I've only been to one job interview and one volunteer interview at the age of 23), and it annoys me so much. Even the most basic questions! I suck so badly at this.

All those who said it would be weird living with my younger brother? Can suck it, basically (no one here, I think :p). It has been pretty good so far. No arguments, no awkwardness, not even discussions about who does what. We just take turns doing the dishes, cook together when it makes sense (and share what needs to be done pretty naturally), agree that we want the kitchen to be tidy, but not extremely so, share food when it makes sense, but more or less keep track of who owes what. When we had a water leakage under the sink today, we (after figuring out and fixing the cause, obvs) just figured that was a good reason to wash the floor, so we ended up cleaning the kitchen pretty thoroughly. With no discussions or arguments about who did what! That is fantastic and would never have happened with my other brother. People were all "You'll end up doing all the housework, he'll be a slob, you'll regret it after two days, it'll be awkward, he'll never do the dishes, he'll mooch off you" etc. Nope. So far, so good!

I just saw an Hannah/Eris doppleganger just then, and since I've been in Ottawa I have also seen not one but two JohnnyC dopplegangers. One guy didn't look like him so much but he was wearing flannel and carrying a guitar and had the same haircut, but the other guy who is a Mexican dude who works at the hostel we are staying at, is an absolute spitting image, really quite freaky.

Hi Blog Thread, I am in Ottawa! I have a long, harrowing, crazy story to tell you but I am too lazy right now and it's probably better if I hold off a couple of days anyway, because then I can provide some resolution to it as well. I hope I get some sort of happy ending.

Oh man, I've seen about four doppelgangers for non-forum people over the last week or two.

Guys, I think humanity's running out of faces.

Or we're taking over the world with our genes. Which may or may not be a bad thing.

I saw Patrick's doppelganger on a street corner busking and I was super confused for a while until I realized it definitely wasn't Patrick.
