The other week at the job, I got the word I've been dreading hearing for a while now: my boss's term is almost up and by extension, so is mine. Eek. To say that I've been stepping up the job search will be one of the last great understatements of the year. I made a pact with myself about a month ago that I unfortunately didn't fulfill, but the motivation has been there. Or rather, my biggest complaint before was that I didn't have money and couldn't get whatever that I needed or some shit (read: Candice stonewalls herself with ridiculous excuses for being lazy) and now that I do (or did until I took care of things that asked for it), I needed a way to keep myself in money.
PrincessNella threw me a bone after months just realizing that I'd be interested in working in magazine once I said it, despite being you know, a writing sort, that's umm...working at a freaking magazine site and in the ten years or so we've known each other, knowing that this kinda thing is up my alley. Geez. Apparently a sister of a friend works at the same magazine that my boss used to work at. So, I got the girl's email and now I'm fretting nervously about exactly what to say in it. Perhaps I should follow P. Diddy's example and just unabashedly namedrop. I mean, fuck, what does it matter? Gotta pull out all the stops. A kid wants to move in February.
