I love how we all are reading the book in the same way, and yet there's some big crowd out there with a totally different reading.
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So my contract is in place, but they waited until 4:30 on the Very. Last. Day. to award it.
WTF people.

I say leave work and go celebrate with a drink!

Because books.
Wait, so does that mean you can stop applying for your own job now? Also, yay! (Right?)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Consuela, the 'wow' just never stops with them.

No, I think it still means she's contracted instead of just having the job outright.

What Hec said. Just means I can keep working while the wheels of the actual hiring process grind slowly away.
I went to my boss today and begged him to find out whether they were actually going to announce my position next Friday. Because if they do, I'm screwed.
Next Friday at 6AM I fly to Madrid, and I'm in Spain for 2 weeks (don't tell the local burglars). And two weeks is exactly the length of time the position will be announced for.
And I'm only bringing my Kindle Fire, which is a crappy interface for typing, so if I'm forced to update my resume on that! Yikes.
And yes, I will have to update my resume again in order to make sure it includes all the buzzwords in the position announcement, which I haven't seen.
GAH. But I'm kind of convinced that's what will happen, because this whole thing has been such a clusterfuck.

Because books.
Oh, I hope it doesn't happen that way, Consuela. I like typing on the Kindle much more than my phone, but updating a resume on it would be pretty awful.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Gargh, this process is incredible, Suela.
On Katniss, I ruffled my feathers initially, and then I read the books. And she read totally white to me, so I stopped fussing.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
ita, you did that on purpose, didn't you?
