Still no pics!

I was really hoping to post pictures today, but MW still isn't feeling well so she hasn't been over here with Rufina. I'm not feeling so great myself- a sort of ears, nose, throat and weird cough thing. I hope it goes away soon. As I mentioned in an earlier post "At least I have my health". I hope I didn't speak too soon.

So... what did I do today? I talked to Chigger and Coriel for a while, which was very nice, got to catch up with them. Then I went into town with B's former roomie PW and applied for a job at the print shop. The lady said that she had fifteen applicants for the job, though she dismissed some of them out of hand. I apparently look younger than 16 because she asked how old I was... That was kind of strange. What else? I followed up on the job at Martin's. That was interesting. Here follows a dialogue-

Me: Hi, I applied for a job here a week and a half ago, I haven't heard anything. 

ShopLady: Oh. What job did you apply for?

Me: The application only let me tick one box, so I ticked 'cashier' because that's what I have experience with, but I'll do ANYTHING.

SL: 'Cause I think they're only hiring baggers right now.

Me: I'll take it.

SL: Write your name, ssn and phone number down and we'll get back to you in a day or two.

What a dumb application! Why couldn't I just put down 'any/all' positions? Argh!

On a plus side, the RPG tonight was fun- for me anyway. I'm not sure about the players...

On a negative side, I'm sleeping on the sofa tonight. And there are loads of flies in St. T's because no one believes in shutting doors.

Another point for the plus side- I have my dictionaries on hand so tomorrow I can work on translating a poem. So far all I know about it is that it's probably iambic... I think.

What else? I'm forgetting something, I'm sure.... Argh. Oh well. If I remember it, I'll post it tomorrow, whatever it was. It's really annoying...
