I apparently have an "interview" at a hiring event for Amazon. Kind'f excited.
I WILL TOUCH ALL YOUR THINGS!
I am suddenly glad I don't order at Amazon
Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!" Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh." Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."
I start my third -Technically- Semester on Monday. Nervous as hell, scared I'll screw it all up, but so glad I forced myself, and pushed myself to get this far. I've made nothing but A's in all the classes I've taken so far. -glee- Lets keep this 4.0 average going!

I think one of my cats is pretending the floor is lava. To get from one end of the house to another, she'll go all the way around the edge of the rooms, jumping along the table, desk, couches, chairs, and whatever else she can use, instead of walking in a straight line across the floor.
This isn't exactly a rave, but there's no "OOC Memorable quotes (which aren't actually quotes because the real world isn't all text)" thread.
I will touch the multitude of things that pass through my station. I will caress them, and wonder who they're going to. I'll question each piece as it passes by, "Where are you going, little piece? Small box, what do you hide from my curious eyes?" I'll let my fingers brush softly across the cardboard, savoring the feeling as the pads of them make that soft, sweet tapping sound when I reach the corners. Once I feel comfortable, I will slowly insert each and every item into that nice, tight brown box, padding them with the proper wrap, and then sealing them away for the next person to touch their beauty.

... that's... really bizarre, because I've got a cat that's suddenly doing the very same thing - avoiding touching the floor however he can.

*in a soft voice* I will touch your things.
this is just about the creepiest thing I've ever read.

For the past 4 months or so I've been looking for a painting for my bedroom. I looked all over and couldn't find anything. Then I got talking to @Rip who as fate would have it, is a very talented artist. I was able to describe what I was looking for and he took the idea and ran with it. He also did one of his awesome videos for it:
In short I am super happy to finally get what I was looking for AND it was done by a super awesome guy so I have a cool story to go with it. Figured it was only fitting to brag about my ig mentor here. Thank you Rip!

My day has been made. I stopped by the Circle K that I used to work at today to get a drink. Was talking to one of my former co-workers and she mentioned the other assistant manager was gone, so I of course asked what happened. She was busted trying to cover up 1200 dollars that she had stolen, in the paperwork. They linked all the money that we had popping up short over the last 6 months to her. Fuck yes!
Hi guys. It's been a few days since I last posted, so here is something fun.
I have an interview for a place an hour east of me that I have to go to after I get out of work on Friday.
lol how hard can it be to find a job?
All the best and good luck. I'm in a similar situation. After almost 9 years at the company, I was handed a letter of redundancy and now I'm scrambling to find work before my last day next week. The rave in all this is the reactions I've gotten from all the other people in the office to it. It has been really touching.
Janeway: Tuvok! *clapclap* Release my hounds!
Krenim: Hounds? How cliche.
Janeway: Tuvok! *clapclap* Release my rape gorilla!
I just got a job offer yesterday after a whole year of rejection after rejection after rejection. Good luck to everyone in similar situations. It's brutal out there in jobland.
For context... I'm broke as can be, literally in debt trying to just get basic food stuffs.
My neighbor is a sweet, sweet old man. Went out and bought my mother and I mac n cheese, some ground beef, and tons of canned food. Someone remind me to pay him back or pay it forward sometime.

My dad's old clothes may fit me, which is amazing because I've needed new clothes for a couple years now. Here's hoping.
We've not taken even a day trip since last October, so to commemorate Labor Day @Kaie and I took a mini-vacation. We went to nearby Frankenmuth, MI where we ate large quantities of pizza and sorbet, shopped, and went to Bronner's Christmas Wonderland (the World's Largest Christmas Store -- over 7 acres of decorations, collectibles, trees, lights, creches, etc.) to start planning this year's Christmas decor (1970's retro!).
Don't judge us: There are only 11 more Fridays until Thanksgiving!

See, now I'm going to start ordering from Amazon for the same reason.

Shit, what do they know?

Okay. While I realise this technically belongs in the music thread, this is just generally raveworthy.
0:44 is a game changer. I have a new hero.

I was being a bit pissy this morning and @Taraus reminded me of this... DAY IMPROVED.
That tambourine player is just marvelous and joy inducing.
