Will sign book for food.
This whole business of trying to secure book signings is a fucking drag. I got turned down by a Mystery book store because my book isn't mysterious enough. Borders is just dicking me around between their website and the store managers who won't help at all. When I finally get a person on the line, they refer me back to the website I just came from. Bastards! I'm not giving up though.
Work busted me down to three days a week without an explanation. We've been pretty slow and it's not the busy time for another month or two. Still though, I do have some small measure of seniority since I've been there almost a year (seriously, turnover is pretty high). I can't really afford to work only three days a week. On the other hand, I'll be glad of the free time to work on book and writing related things. Since a hefty chunk of my flist just got laid off and/or fired, I should be glad of just having a job at all.
BattleStar Galactica was great this past week. We always watch on the following Monday after it airs, because H works on Friday night. I think Tigh will do a terrible job commanding Galactica, his cylon ways not withstanding. Conversely, I think Little Adama will do a swell job as president until Roslin comes back. I do feel bad for all the Sixes that keep dropping dead though. They are so pretty. ;-]
I've taken to reading Wikipedia at work in between calls. We have a lot of down time at my work, and reading the LOST wiki made two whole days go by lightening quick. Yesterday I started reading about Simpson characters. It's good stuff, some of which I've forgotten over the years. Simpsons has been on TV for a long ass time. If it were a person, it'd be old enough to drink, now that's something.
The commercial is going to run for five weeks. They are giving us a pretty good deal, and it is only costing us $400. I may pay for some product placement during a skit as well, as that is just another $100. I really hope this helps.
