Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

And in chinese import places, especially ones that somehow are in Hong Kong immigrant neighborhoods

I'd check Indian groceries, too. That's where I go when I need Bird's and can't access Canada.

A cheap local supply of Rogers, and I'd be golden.

(Of course, I bought a few of the Costco sized jugs two years ago, and am set for the near future.)

I'd say a local supply of Shreddies, but I mixed them with morning sickness last year and lost my taste for the things.

It's the ex-colony thing.

'Zactly. And unburdened by the weird bonus price inflation. I like cheap.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

So, had my interviews today. I'm really really hoping for the first job. Not great pay, but the job itself is right up my alley. During my question time (though I was actually asking questions through the whole thing) I asked her what made her want to join the company. We talked about really believing in something, and how it's not just a job with a paycheck, but you really have to have a calling.

I need to write a thank you note, but I'm afraid it won't get there until Monday. Is a quick email ok? It was a very friendly, informal office, but I don't want to make any presumptions.

Second interview was fine, decent job with good growth potential, but certainly not a calling.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Heather, I e-mailed mine. I think these days, especially if they're making decisions quickly, it's okay.

Good luck!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I think an email is okay. You might want to send the paper one, too.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yay! Thanks ita. That was my instinct, but I needed a little validation. I really enjoyed meeting this woman and I love the job. She actually said, "We're a very liberal organization" and I could have cried.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think an email is fine. I often follow up with a note but, in this day and age, mail takes a long time.

It sounds like something you would enjoy doing just from your enthusiasm. Good luck!

What is even happening?

Oh Heather, go get 'em!

It also comes in Scooby Doo. [link]

Cool. I could buy just one! Everyone likes Scooby Doo. Thirty-nine bucks is a lot, though. I could just teach them to use my vacuum.
