constance: (*assumes spurious air of boredom*)

I got a parking ticket today, parked outside my own house. I mean, yes, I was breaking the law, though I didn't realize that having two wheels up on the edge of the sidewalk was illegal here. But! A ticket! Outside my own house! From a police force which doesn't bother to ticket speeding in school zones! O, the humanity, man.

At least I wasn't the only one on my street to get one, though; the whole length of it, you can see soggy strips of yellow carbonless paper stuck under people's windshield wipers. And there's something else, too, that makes me not care so deeply about my parking ticket which I will pay immediately because I do not want to spend another night in prison ever again, and that thing is that I HAVE A JOB. I got called for an interview from my new best friend Tori this morning, went into the office this afternoon, talked to them for 45 minutes, and within a half hour after my return home, they'd made an offer. I start Monday, can you believe it? I HAVE A JOB. Let me say it again, in case you've forgotten: I HAVE A JOB.

:D:D:D:D:D

Congrats on the job!!!!!!

(and boo for the ticket, because...yes, I received a ticket in front of my very own house once, on the same night that the front door was left unlocked and open. Like...you'd think the cop - who lives a block away - might have checked to see if somebody was, you know, dead before worrying about the ticket *g*)

Congratulations to you! Give your new best friend Tori a hug for me and tell her she made a fine decision. Boo on the dumb ticket, but that really only diminishes the overall :D :D :D :D :Dness by :D or so.

Eek! Yay! Congrats, you!
Although I must admit a pittance of sadness at the fact that you won't be moving to DC. Although, now you will have outrageous amounts of cash to come visit...happy all over again!
Yay!

Congratulations, poppet! I am looking forward to the details. From what little you've said about it, I suspect you are absolutely the perfect candidate.

I know two people who got jobs today -- Jen S. just got a designer position with Whole Foods. I hope she doesn't decide to give up her PT w/ Apple before I take advantage of her employee discount.

That's wonderful news! Yay! :-D

The ticket? Bah, police! They must have been told they needed to up their revenue from fines for this month or something. (D works for the police while not actually being one: this is his view on such matters. *g*)
