I just got hired as a research assistant, which is both good and sad.

Good, because I can really use the $25 a week the job will provide me.

Sad, because I can relly use that $25 a week the job will provide me.

Whatever, I get to help write an article on romantic comedies.

Sign my guestbook if you've recently heard a wankier phrase than "I teach a martial art." I have been to Hot Dog City, and I have the nicotine hair to prove it.

What I'm wearing: White shirt, pink circle skirt with terriers all over.

What I'm reading: Crickets. Aw.

What I'm doing after this: the "I'm hired" dance.
