Having fully given in and submitted to the growing power of the “blogosphere”, I have registered here at wordpress and gotten myself a blog. At least wordpress seems slightly less evil than many of the other blogging sites. I mean, the Green Party uses it; they’re pretty benign, right? Oh well. Regardless, I hate the word “blogosphere” and I hate Anderson Cooper, who I believe has actively used the word “blogosphere” without rolling his eyes or smirking.
The Job Application Gauntlet began today. It required an entire revamping of my resume, a revamp of my revamped resume, numerous cover letter rewrites, information compilation, and the blood of a Hestial virgin. I just want a job that makes me WANT to drag my sorry ass out of bed every morning… is that too much to hope for? Probably.
I’m so excited about Christmas, and ultimately I’m excited that I have no job for Christmas because it means I can actually spend a significant amount of time with my family. Every family member I want to be there will be there. Even though something horrible will probably occur in context to much of my immediate family being in one place, that’s ok. It’ll be another horrible holiday story to add to the pile of broken celebrations. That sounds much darker than I intended it to. Take it with a tongue-in-cheek, despondent Parker Posey in The House of Yes kind of humor.
I know I should be sleeping, but I’m very jazzed right now. That’s probably part of what made me do this, but I’m glad I did. My sweet Marlowe is lumbering around the apartment, trying to find some way to amuse himself until he falls asleep from boredom. I wish there was more I could do to make him happy. All I can do is snuggle him, feed him, and give him nice long walks when I feel accustomed. I was devastated after the biting incident at my aunt’s house, but time has somewhat healed those wounds. As well as the wounds of being unfairly fired, which, as I’ve already insinuated, is an unquestionable blessing. There’s no way I’m ending on that note. SAN DIMAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!
