fuck working for the man

i am always very very tired now. this is what staring at a computer screen and three hours of a comuting will do to you. it will make you want to eat twenty dollar dinners because you "deserve" it and pass out at midnight. it will make whole days slip by in which you accomplish absolutely nothing for yourself and it will make you live for the

How'd it go, lamb? The testing. And the interview you described last entry.

[raspberrylemon]

luckily, i didn't have to get tested. taking the much more casual, much more mom-and-pop-owned job means that i could smoke my little self silly, which was nice.

PS I suggest you move to New York. I'm working this angle on Diana, too. You should move to NYC and get a job as a proofreader, assistant editor, or a fluffer. har! Seriously, though, at least when you're "making it" in NYC you have a greater sense of accomplishment. Oh, and have you tried getting work at the Reg? I have a few connections there due to my past as a library assistant, if you'd like me to see what I can do...it's actually a pretty great place to work. But you probably have heard that already. Oh, and another piece of advice, no matter how much they promise you, AVOID THE SMART MUSEUM!

Also PPS

does my memory deceive me or have you worked at the reg already?

[raspberrylemon]

no, i haven't worked at the reg before (though i have heard it's a great place to work). you worked there? when? nyc is tantalizing and alluring (as are you) but i feel like i need to regain my balance before i make any big moves. (and, dorky as it sounds, i feel like having at least a full years experience on my resume will make the next job easier). but soon as my "performance evaluation" is over, i'll come out to ny to visit.
