friday the 13th

i didn't even realize that it was friday the 13th until about an hour ago. blissfully oblivious... such is how i try and lead my life

i had an interview on thursday. it wasn't for an actual job, but i did get offered a very awesome (paid!) internship. so i'm pretty pumped about that. now i'm in the process of trying to figure out when exactly i can start my internship while still getting the credits that i need (now? summer? fall? who knows) as cheaply as possible. and, i still need to find some real work in the meantime. but nonetheless, it's nice to have that ever-elusive diploma seemingly within reach. at least for now.... until the s.p.c. realizes that they've been slipping as of late

andrew's answer to one of the questions i recently posed:
"yes the lobster would eat you, because you ooze lobster stank from the lobsters you have eaten in the past."
i never even considered the revenge factor. it's obvious now that lobsters could pose a serious threat to me whenever i venture into the ocean (unless i always arm myself with a stick of butter). and the phrase "you ooze lobster stank" made me laugh for about a half-hour straight. instant classic

i just had another realization: it's friday night, and i have nothing planned except doing some (more) reading. one of the benefits of being unemployed is that you have lots of free time. oh sure, i check for job postings online and in the papers, send out the occasional resume, and stuff like that. but i'm still left with vast quantities of free time. thus, i've been trying to get as much reading done as possible, not knowing how long this golden opportunity will last, or when it will arise again. even so, my life has dwindled down to a seemingly pathetic level of existence. i fit the stereotype of "unemployed 20-something still living at home" to perfection. it's disturbing at times... but then i just eat some more ice cream and pick up another book at the library


big game tomorrow night. and if you have to ask "what is it?", then don't bother asking

Ohio has paid internships. I looked. We do. You can have one. All you have to do is come here.
