Whew!
I got up crazy early this morning so I could take the bus to my appointment with my fetching employment counselor. It went well, they are going to give me a voucher so i can get a new outfit for job interviews. What should I get? I guess some kind of pants and a nice blouse. I could get a nice skirt, but then I'd have to get nylons and shave my legs and crap. *shudder* What kind of shoes should I get? Are flats okay? What about loafers? I have no clue what the protocol is these days. I'm trying to get a job in high end customer service or reception. My plan is to pay on my loans for a year, get out of default and then off to grad school. That's if I'm not a famous writer by then...actually, even if I am.
My internet has been off all day, until about an hour ago. I thought I was unplugging it and plugging it back in like you're supposed to. It seems, though, that I confused the airport with the router, so I was doing it wrong. I can be remarkably stupid when it comes to computers, it seems. Stupid Ryan, not living here to constantly help me...
Anyway being offline I missed a few things. Everyone thinks it's okay to spam communities with Katrina/help posts. And of course I am called unsympathetic when I suggest that anyone who gives a damn would have already found that information by now. Plus watching the news is making me so upset and emotional that i just need to limit my exposure to it. I don't mean that people shouldn't write what they want in their own journal. Obviously, they should. But when I go looking for Sopranos, Law & Order, or Calvin and Hobbes news, I'm annoyed to see it spammed with some crap about some guy who will give a dollar per click. Are we really still fooled by junk mail that promises to give anyone money for clicking links?
Plus, it seems that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rjwhite pokes the fun at those of us who prepare for zombie holocaust. Fie! Don't come asking to borrow my battery operated CB/am radio, shaky flashlights or various choppy devices when the time comes, Mr. Mock. That's all I'm saying...
