You Got To Have A J-O-B…

Posted By on May 9, 2007

If you want to be with me.

Which is good. Because I? Am now gainfully employed. Or will be in a few weeks time.

Aiiiiiiiieeeeeeee!

I was offered (and accepted) a job today! That’s about all you’re getting. (It’s not consulting. Or mulch.) I’m going to be a Marketing/Event Coordinator. It basically sounds like a great job. (I say “sounds like” because, well, I thought the last one ruled. I was all kinds of wrong, wasn’t I?) It combines all the things I enjoy doing into one job – writing, marketing and event planning.

So yay to me! And I’ll be celebrating with my girl Haro tonight at the Cubs game. Which will be my first of the season. And I’m sure my presence will send them into quite a downward losing spiral. Seeing as they have done a whole hell of a lot better so far than I imagined they would.

So yeah. I start on the 21st. As long as the background check and drug test go on without a hitch. So no wine the night before that test. Must. Remember. No. Pot. Brownies.

And now commence with the well wishes, bitches!

    See, that’s karma’s way of saying that what happened to you at [redacted] was a bunch of bullshit. I’m really psyched for you. You gots to bring me lots of free … steel?

    Oh, and I’m serious. You better rock the “Blue Steel” tag. If I’m gonna be in grad school, I need the residuals. 🙂
