Well, it IS that terrifying time of year...

The spider I just killed: This picture is the exact same as the spiders we've been finding in our apartment at the rate of about 3 a week. I think there is cause for some alarm here...uterdic?

In other news, Oxygen came on cable tonight, so I checked it out. I can't quite describe what went wrong with this movie, as it is a good story told with some fabulous performances. Then there are some parts of it that just suck. But this is a great film for Adrien Brody fans if any...I like him in this film a lot. Happily, lickingtoad and pak_man78 were onhand to join in the watching of TV and the eating of pizza...and the other kind of pizza too. So in short, all was right with the world.

It turns out that The Village is actually NOT paying $6 an hour across the board. For whatever reason people decided to keep that information from me, knowing full well I would never go work there for such low pay. I guess that's why I get for taking someone's word for it instead of going there myself. Of course, I did fill out an application and they never called me, presumably because I asked for a reasonable wage and/or a management position. I'm just not clear on why people are such selfish bastards when they know how shitty it feels to be out of work. Oh well...I guess I should know better than to rely on other people by this stage in the game. It's just that on top of hurting my feelings, it makes me damn mad.

Am I insane or did the opening credits on SNL tonight include Wil Ferrell?
It was very wierd, not that I watched for long, it's not so funny these days.

That makes me want a Foster's.

[itches]

Fosters. Beer that isn't sold in Australia.

I can't for the life of me imagine why you would want one.

[wednes.livejournal.com]

It isn't?

I feel so...disallusioned.

[itches]

Export only. You've been had!

[wednes.livejournal.com]

Oh man...I haven't felt this bad since finding out those two geezers weren't really Bartles and James!

[itches]

Any other myths about Australia you want me to forever destroy for you?

[wednes.livejournal.com]

Um...do dingo's take out a lot of babies there, or is that just in the movies?

Kidding!!!

[itches]

Oh no, that one is true. Yep, totally true.

I might be remembering this wrong, but I think the guys pretending to be Bartles and James were Earnest and Julio Gallo, who make B&J. When I learned that, I felt I wasn't being as ripped off as I should be. But then again, I might be way off base. If only there were some thing that I could look up all this information with...

[wednes.livejournal.com]

I don't think that's true. I think they were actors.

[uterdic.livejournal.com]

So I looked it up (this time), and you are correct, they are actors. When I heard it, I suppose I wanted to believe it because I was disappointed too.
