silveradeptToday, I called back on a job... the people took my number and said they would call back, probably sometime in the evening. Well, it didn't happen. I'm not mad at the moment. I'll give them some time, probably, before asking again. By the end of the week, I'm probably going to aggravate all the places that I've put applications in for and tell them that Yes, I'd like a job, thank you very much, now please give me one.
However, today was also a good day in other ways. I wished a friend a happy birthday on her 21st, walked another one home after that (chivalrous instincts working on me) and had it confirmed yet again that Divinity has a sense of humor. A very prominent one, in fact.
So I said to the friend of mine that I walked home that "self-inflicted silliness is of the best kind". As I was walking away, I began to think aloud, but I stopped when I noticed the couple that was on their porch, probably in the middle of saying cute things to each other. I think we both startled each other, and then, naturally, because I felt silly, I apologized and said "carry on." I made it to the end of the block before I laughed at myself. Self-inflicted silliness is always the best. It's another one of those things that probably wouldn't be funny to many other people, but I find hysterical. And, as I said, it confirms that Divinity has a sense of humor.
By the way, am I allowed to complain about my current lack of a girlfriend, or do you, my quasi-loyal readership, think that the LJ area is already contaminated enough by those sorts of things, and that my adding to it would be akin to throwing toxic waste into a lake where an endangered species breeds? Somehow, I think that if I were to let on that I'm aggravated by such things, my opinion would be lowered somewhat. Either I would become more normal to the people I'm trying to make believe that I'm special, and I'd probably become closer to some sort of 16-year old angst machine to those that think I'm kinda normal. (You're both wrong, by the way. I'm none of those things that I've mentioned.) Plus, when one part cries for a mate and the other has perfectly legitimate reasons why I shouldn't have one, I don't think I have the right to say anything either way about it. Oh, well. (Is this the part where a cute girl conveniently says that she's looking for someone like me, happens to live in the area, and that we should meet each other? Or is that leaning a little too much toward a plot contrivance?) However it decides to work out, it will. Who knows? Perhaps Divinity's sense of humor will get me in the end anyway...
Enough of this useless knowledge. Probably too much information anyway. So, to distract you, I go...
Look! Shiny Memes!
Sweet! I'm apparently very in tune with the Force. The red lightsabers mean that one of my friends who I fondly call my Padawan is really my Apprentice. Doing the Dark Side thing with good intentions, probably.
I can imagine myself being a bit lazy as a dragon... and this one fits me fairly close to the mark.
And now I make my sneaky escape... for the hunt continues tomorrow.
