So, in lieu of "Race to Beat Jon," we played this mess tonight:

Maybe I'm doing it wrong. Maybe it's the squeaky wheel thing =p but at this point, I really couldn't jinx myself any more than I already have been. Jinx away!

So, the Internet Archive[!] has a position for someone to scan in books. Yes, that's it. I actually really want it, despite the commute,* but I have no idea how long it will take them to ( Read more... )

I put off the usual BGN report for a number of reasons, including 1. there's still that dark cloud of unemployment hanging over my head that keeps me from enjoying my extended vacation and makes me feel as though any time I spend even rightfully taking a break from ameliorating my lack of income is only digging myself deeper--but mostly 2. it's a ( Read more... )

A cursory browse* showed that scholarships [i.e. don't need to pay them back] are more for recent high school grads, while financial aid for someone like me would be in the form of student loans. Besides having no support from Char in the matter, that's pretty much the last nail in the coffin for returning to school for me, since I'm really not ( Read more... )

[Sloth will do that.] That is, the problem with getting a graphic job, for instance, is I'm too removed from school and haven't had significant experience with the one place that gave me a chance. Besides the friends who actually know me and ( Read more... )

Do you know how Avery and such label people make their money? THE LABELS DON'T MATCH THE MS WORD SETTINGS THEY SAY TO USE. Every time--every single time--I print a whole sheet of a label, it gets like one row lined up, then the rest shift completely off the page to where the full address is on two different labels ( Read more... )

If it wasn't evident, I like to chronicle things of interest, but my biggest problem is doing so in a manner that's easy to manage and navigate. Quotes, especially, are in such abundance that I'd need a database to compile them all, and the folks I know I've bugged to make one for me [for pay, even!] haven't followed through =/ but perhaps that's ( Read more... )
