I'm posting this from work, because I'm supposed to go out in a bit, and don't feel like going home in between. So here I am, killing time. I guess going home and writing after a day of...writing...just hasn't been too appealing to me, so I haven't been posting ( Read more... )

I put up a birdhouse on Thursday afternoon. Got up on a ladder, reached up, hammered that sucker in, and came inside, not thinking too much about it beyond how I hoped that we'd get some birds living in there ( Read more... )

I'm posting this while I wait for FrameMaker to utterly crash on me. It takes a good five minutes for anything to load from the school's server, which usually leads Windows to say that it's crashing, rather than admitting that no, it just sucks ( Read more... )

Okay. -42C/-44F.

Last I checked, it was March, weather! We're spinning back toward the time when we're facing the sun, right? Right?!I have an interview in an hour and a half, and my hair looks like a rat crawled into it, played around for a bit, and died. I should probably do something about that ( Read more... )

I haven't seen five minutes of Bram Stoker's Dracula (the movie, that is), and it makes me nauseous with its stupidity. Good lord. I can't believe this is for real.

When did Dracula become a tongue-slitting, compulsive, hideous, old homosexual man-whore?!

Oh my god, that's Keanu ReevesI've now watched it for about ten minutes, during which I ( Read more... )

I went into the office, and bleunuit was there, but he wouldn't talk to me. I wasn't really upset about it though. It was like he was there to observe ( Read more... )

Cook for Kelly Done. They got a bonus beef stew too, when I discovered that Kelly was thawing a roast in their fridge for no apparent reason.
Don't make ass of self Check! Can you believe it? A couple of minor errors on my part, but the interview lasted two hours, so that can't be helped ( Read more... )

Two interviews so far this week, which is great, except that I only have one copy of my portfolio because I knew my Monday one wouldn't want a copy. I sure hope Tuesday doesn't, but I suspect that they might. They're new to the program, and might want to ooh and aah over our mad writing skillz in private ( Read more... )

Monday morning, and Fortin's back! Thank goodness. I missed having someone to make inappropriate jokes with.

I let her know that we're both in the running for at least two open positions with Open Text. I'm excited that I might get to work with her, plus it's in Kanata (or K-Town, bleunuit) which is all of ten minutes' drive away for me. Open Text ( Read more... )
