Dream Journal: "The Job Search"
I was dropped off, by a friend in their car, at a local elementary/middle school to see about a job. I had the phone number scrawled on a notepad, but I didn't call ahead to arrange an interview. I forgot. Yet this didn't discourage me ( Read more... ) -

MC: "I'm going to voodoo Aaron"
B: "How are you going to voodoo Aaron? He's not in the country. Besides, he's a good person."
