Stuff to tide me over until the S5 finale on Monday.

I have a job. Starting on Monday, I'll be selling handbags and overpriced greeting cards at the Hallmark store in the mall. I spent about three hours at the mall today, looking for "work suitable" clothes. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find simple, solid colour three-quarter sleeve t-shirts in summertime? I kind of felt like I would find Jimmy Hoffa on the clearance rack before I found what I was looking for. The upside? (Well, the entirely superficial, make-you-feel-good-for-five-minutes-before-you-actually-look-at-the-pricetag upside.) I'm actually four pants sizes smaller than I thought I was. I'm thinking of marketing my diet plan on a national level: Nissin Chow Main Microwavable Meals, Sharpen Saws In Your Spare Time and Earn Extra Cash. Send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to 'I Don't Have Any Money For REAL Food, Incorporated, Pueblo, Colorado.'

My interview for Barnes & Noble went well. I'll hear back from the guy on Tuesday and, if I passed the preliminary interview, I'll be called back for another one with a different manager. They're only able to offer part-time hours right now, so if I get the job, it's very likely that I'll be working at both places to supplement my income for the summer. When school starts up again in the fall, I'll cut back to one location. Admittedly, I'm more excited about the prospect of working for Barnes & Noble, but I'm a realist -- I've got to make money somewhere.

Yesterday I finished and turned in the last set of assignments for this semester. Grades come out some time within the next couple of weeks and I'm really optimistic that I nailed all three of my courses with solid 'As.' We'll see. I have a much heavier courseload scheduled for the fall, including that really cool Chinese/American Landscape Portraits comparison class.

I'm tired and in kind of a lousy mood today. 'Think I'm going to watch some Six Feet Under DVDs and take a nap. Blerg.
