GOOD JOB JESSE

OK, I'm trying to be calm, but it's hard.

Their hire decided that she couldn't handle the job *physically* (?!). They are paying me less than I wanted, but I will have 100% free health insurance.

Admin assist at a law firm, but they said that it will turn into a legal assistant, and they were supportive of my plans to go to school for paralegal studies while I worked.

Why bother being calm? This is a good time to flip out.

I actually squealed in Argo Tea.

When do you start?

. . . and once they see how awesome you are IN ACTION they will want to throw more money at you.

I have to go to work. I am...ebullient.

Funniest sentences on this thread today:
1. I know a baby with a fake iPod.
2. I actually squealed in Argo Tea.

THANK CHRIST. Now that Jesse's gone to work we can FINALLY talk about something other than his AMMMAAAAAAZING NEW JOB.

j/k

I am going to be the best, sharpest little assistant this city ever saw.

That wasn't as funny as it seemed in my head.

The Best, Sharpest Little Assistant This City Ever Saw should be an animated musical or something.

OK....

Off to sling chum.

Once I clean all this feces off the walls at Argo....

Bye lovers!

Their hire decided that she couldn't handle the job *physically* (?!).

^one million joeks in here

Congrats, Jesse!!

congratulations!!! please don't shit in my pants!!

My mom insists on answering, "Hello?" even when she sees my number on the phone. When she types "phone" she puts a little ' in front, so you know she's abbreviating "telephone."

JITTERBUG.

I sometimes answer "hello" even with caller ID because I get a kick out of people saying "Dan?"

I don't understand. I always answer the phone "Hello?", even though I only ever answer calls from numbers I recognize. Sometimes I will say "Hey," but I don't think "hello" is so weird at all.

OK, so I think I can start Thursday. I will have to work out a short notice at the restaurant, though I really hope I can still work 2 shifts per week there, both for the money and for the funny.

YAAAYYY, Jesse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(By the way, I got your letter! THANK YOU)

USA v. BRAZIL @ Soldier Field!

Katie, Matt, and I are going. It's a little pricey but... BRAZIL! Supposedly they're bringing all the stars along, too.

Will they be selling novelty bottle openers?

lol Here's hoping

speaking of allowing extra travel time, did anybody else have to sit on a dead train for 20 minutes this morning? They said something about "police activity" at one of the stations.

But then the train went express and I made it on time anyway.

Are there any good online crosswords out there? The UI on the AV Club's xword is great.

This has been bothering me for a while since it's at the top of the screen, but what is "UI"?

Oh wait, "user interface"? I just googled it. I thought it was a crossword term, haha.

I am craving some of those maple candies that you can get in New England or at Cracker Barrel.

this kind:

I guess I will just have more coffee though.

You could get a maple-glaze donut at Dunkin' Donuts.

Eh.

We haven't had any office coffee at our office for like 6 months since our last coffee maker broke and the bosses didn't replace it. However, one of my coworkers just contributed her old coffeemaker, and bought coffee and creamer too. Is it wrong for me to be annoyed with her because she only bought Sweet & Low and not sugar?

Answer, yes it is wrong.

I'm going to buy a bottle of maple syrup and chug it.

I could send you some, Nick. You can get them in MN & I haven't sent your wedding present yet . . .

i'm currently sewing the short dress w/ the tie sleeves from this pattern:

does anyone have any ideas for what I can embellish the pockets with? the dress is currently close to this color:

which is fun, but it needs something to break it up . . .

p.s. I may wear this dress to our chicago party!

Exciting!

I'm totally addicted to sewing clothes!!
