evilhippo and I were out way longer than I thought we would be with the job hunt thing. We tried the little Italian place and they were like LAWLZ WE'LL BE IN TOUCH which is generally bullshit and makes me wonder why they had a sign for hiring in the window... or maybe they just hated us. *sigh* So much for that. We also hit the Lego store in the mall thingy and I tried this one fancy restaurant, the Grand Lux that would be alright, I guess. I'd be working the front desk which sounds okay if not massively dull. We rendezvoused at Trader Joe's down the street for minor grocery shopping complete with peer pressure, and ended up chatting with out check-out guy about bean sprouts. Conversation topics ran amok and it turns out they're hiring. We both filled out apps and took the scary scary math test and interviewed, and hopefully one or both of us will get a call back in a week or so. Which I hope happens, because of everywhere we looked, it seems the best by far. And HEALTH INSURANCE AHAHAH. But yeah, everyone there we talked to seems to love working there. And mmmm grocery benefits. Anyway, here's to hoping.
I've gotten a fat lot of nothing done for NaNo, save creating my profile on NaNoWriMo.org (Kilauea, for what it's worth). Now I need to make a LJ writing journal and actually bang something out. I'm just so tiiiiired.
Edit: My NaNoWriMo LJ username is
pumpkinmuffins. Feel free to friend me, I just make no promises in the area of quality. :D

I always thought it'd be fun to manipulate the blood away from the heart entirely, or else like, make it flood the heart or lungs or brain. Or something. But that episode just made me so dang happy. I can't wait to see if it's used in the final battle.
