Just got off of the phone with Books-a-Million. After three weeks, two visits to the store and more days of phone calls or attempted phone calls finally have an answer on my application.

I go in tomorrow at 2 to fill out paperwork!

The as promised pictures (two because, well...we're all very good at reflecting sunlight in some very brilliant and sometimes blinding ways. ^__^ And you see more of their sign in the second one.)
