Tuesday With Myself

So I woke up rather early again this morning. For some reason, I've only been sleeping about 6 hours a night. I'm unsure if it's because my sleep cycle is still screwed up or my allergies haven't adjusted to spring pollen yet or maybe both. Oh well...

I went downstairs and saw mail that apparently I wasn't given yesterday at my place at the dining room table. It was a rejection letter from that university in Scotland. Honestly, this isn't surprising after getting more info on exactly what the job entailed. I don't think I'd want to work for them if they thought I was qualified! OMG!

So now that I'm less interested in pursuing anything, the woman seems more interested. For now, I choose to interpret this as her wanting to remain friends with me which we all know I could use as well...I think I've said this at least once before but this would be the first time something like that has ever happened, really. I mean many have said it but they have all gone the way of the dodo so time will tell where this goes and for how long. (Aren't I the pessimist?)

I'm glad you're glad Scotland isn't for you. What did the job entail anyways?

It was basically a library director job. When I applied, I thought it was a lackey position. If it was a small library, I think I could handle it but not at a prestigious university...

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c

Reversion To The Old Ways

Since there seems to be no rhyme or reason to which of my posts get comments and which don't, I'm going post whatever I feel like. Sure, I love comments but I must face facts that I'm not going to get them. No, I'm not going to review every episode of every TV show I'm going to watch this new season again simply because it doesn't appeal to me any more. To be sure, I will write about some of the new series since that does still interest me but not every episode... I am going to go back to complaining about my love life occassionally though because, if I can't discuss it here, where can I? Remember that workstudy student I mentioned being interested in? Yeah, well she's married apparently and I think even has at least one child so even if she didn't commute from such a long distance, nothing is going to happen with that. (Boo!) This is the first time I've discovered information of this nature before I made a complete ass of my self so this is go

This Was Supposed To Be Titled "Brooms and Baseball" But, Now, Forget It...

Saturday, my aunt and roommate went with me to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix . Overall, I loved it but I'd be lying if I didn't have quibbles but there was much I enjoyed about it. In the book, I found the character of Luna annoying as all get out but she totally rocked in this movie. "I'm hungry. I hope they have pudding." Delores Umbridge was also great. I did, however, miss the heavy Scottish accent Cho had in the last movie. (My cousin pointed out that she still had one but from a different region. I say it isn't the same.) I actually approved of them cutting the Quidditch stuff out of this movie but the OWL scenes, including the studying, being cut was disapointing. They had the scene with Fred and George but they didn't make clear they actually left school so what really was the point? Speaking of confusion, how exactly could the students ride creatures only Harry and Luna could see? I'm pretty sure it was explained in the book b
