harness time

Status report: They've decided to hire someone else for the job I've been doing for the past two months, I got a B on the first paper for my class, and I'm wearing an unsightly posture-correcting deal over my red pajamas. I don't understand how potential employers/suitors are not beating down my door!
Seriously, though? This posture-correcting thing? Looks almost exactly like one of those harnesses people put on their kids in malls. Or, you know, dogs in general. It's an awesome look. I got the super-cool harness at the As Seen On TV store in the mall, in case anyone else out there would like to correct their posture (something I really should work on) and look kind of mentally challenged while doing so.
I kind of actively don't want to be at work right now. Well, obviously, since it's midnight. But during the day -- most of the time, I'd gotten to the point of benign annoyance, but now I'm bitter about having to go and cannot get myself to do anything while I'm there. This may be because they totally dissed me and hired someone else to do my job after semi-offering it to me. Whatev! I don't want it anyway.
Today I had to go in to discuss said dissage with one of my bosses (further proof of Office Space's scarily accurate brilliance: At Acronym Company, I report to four bosses), who went into a long, "Really, you'd be bored here" discussion about why they weren't going to hire me. It was totally an It's Not You, It's Me breakup discussion modified for the workplace. Good times! Good times.
It really wasn't so bad.
Anyway, other stuff: The goal for this week is to NOT FORGET MY HAIR APPOINTMENT ON SATURDAY. I write it in caps so that I DON'T FORGET. I'm beyond overdue for a cut and am developing disturbingly frizzy triangle head because of growing-out layers.
Also, I forgot to do laundry! But I have a clean bra and underwear and everything else can be improvised, really.
Am I the only one kind of sucked into the One Minute Soaps on Soapnet? I was totally into the last one, but I've missed GH a lot the last couple of weeks and so I'm kind of confused about the background of the Current Cafe Couple. Oh God, how sad is it that I (a) think about this and (b) share the fact that I think about it with others? I did catch GH today, and am I the only one who's pulled out of the whole GH story by Nikolas's tattoos? I mean, I can watch things with amnesia and lookalikes and deaths that are never permanent, but for some reason my willing suspension of disbelief starts to become grudging when it involves body art for Nikolas Cassadine. It just doesn't seem right, you know!
And ooh! Ooh ooh! Incredible OC fic! Incredible OC fic everyone should read!
Summer
It's so fantastic.
