By "long day," one of course is speaking of working for twelve hours in a row. That's way more time than one should spend working, especially at a grocery store. I have to say that I do not approve of it at all, which is in part why I am looking, ever looking, for another job ( Read more... )

It was not an idea as much as it was a list, a list of ways to kill various denizens of the Night. I am not talking about hookers, because that is a really damn long list without even getting into the really inventive ways.

I really need to get that second draft of my thesis finished. Ain't gonna happen tonight, which means that I got to bust my ass tomorrow and Wednesday, it seems. I was going to write more, but honestly dudes I have to poop pretty urgently and then I am going to sleep.
