I've also learned that Matt Bomer (from White Collar) was in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2: The Beginning. The modern version, not the original.
Neither of them could elevate the pain parade movies they were stuck in, sadly.

I don't know why, but organizing and labelling the scarf section at the shop made me feel quite accomplished. It was a big section! And I organized it and labelled it and restocked it and made it look tidy! Apparently I'm now in charge of the scarf section and keeping it stocked, as well as in charge of the Facebook page! FUCK YEAH I AM THE BEST EMPLOYEE EVER.
Which makes me feel kind of terrible about going to a job fair yesterday and actually having people ask for my resume, establishing contacts et al. I've been working at the shop for over a year now! I've got more responsibilities! I'm good at what I do! Oh, wait, you say there's a full-time position somewhere else? Okay bye guys. Don't forget to say nice things about me to prospective employers!
I know there's no real reason to feel guilty about this - I had never planned to stay at the shop forever - but I don't want to just jump ship when I'm good at what I do there. Maybe I can volunteer on nights and weekends.
Or maybe, just like every other time, no one will hire me and the point will be moot. But hey, there were some organizations at the job fair who were actually looking for communications people to translate medical literature! That's pretty much what I do and they seemed pretty excited about my applying, so. We'll see what happens.

So the "DVD Commentary" fic meme is going around, and while normally I skip it because I don't write nearly enough to justify using this meme, but it's been a while, so:
Pick a one-shot or a single chapter from one of my multi-chapter fics and I will do a DVD-style commentary on it. You know, writing process, places the story might have gone, scenes I ended up not writing, stale jokes...you know, stuff.

Sleeping time now. I'm actually getting back on track with schoolwork! It's amazing. Everything feels manageable.

(I would steal the meme, but I think I have to update my AO3 first so my fics are actually all findable... I do like the way you phrase it, though. "You know, writing process, places the story might have gone, scenes I ended up not writing, stale jokes...you know, stuff.")

But, yeah. I've been getting more hours, and the people I work with generally like me, and I'm really good at selling stuff! People have told me so! I'd feel really bad just leaving them, even if I couldn't live on my current hours and salary. Maybe I'll see if I can work at the shop after my day job; they do stay open till nine...
