Keep on Truckin'

Life putters on at a breakneck pace for many folks, but for me, it's still crawling. I have a couple stories in my pipe at the moment, and some checks came through, finally. But mostly I'm being ignored by my editors, by the folks I've sent resumes to, and by my cat.

Kyle is still a bastard. but he's at least capable of showing some forms of affection. Currently, he has taken up residence on a Villains bag that lies on the floor next to the television.

And speaking of television, V and I went up to Lori and Paul's on Sunday and sipped Margurittas and watched the Simpsons. It was the first televisual feast we've had in months.

No matter what company you're in, people always respond the same way when you tell them you don't watch TV. They always say, "Oh, well, that's great. Awesome." Then they look down at the ground and pause for a moment before they pick up their conversation and tell you about whatever show it is that they're telling you about.

The ratties are still very stinky. I cleaned their cage yesterday. . See, this is how exciting my life is right now. yippy Kayay!

I have two jobs that I feel very qualified for at the moment, but I have not heard squat from either since I applied. I guess I didn't get either, as usual. THere's something seriously wrong with my resume, or with these HR people. Same shit, different week.
