You know what they say about all work and no play...

I feel like I've been assimilated into some kind of yuppie collective... I get up at 7 to go to work, wear polo shirts, and have taken to reading the Wall Street Journal on the train and at lunch. Good thing this job is only temporary, or I might actually lose my mind.

Speaking of jobs, I got called in for an interview with the cafe at the Borders in my hometown, and it went pretty much brilliantly. It's a two-interview process, and Laura, the cafe manager I interviewed with yesterday, said she would definitely be calling me about setting up the second interview on either Friday or Monday. She said she was really impressed with my experience, and how I answered her hypothetical "WHAT IF THIS HAPPENS" questions, and I think that the fact that the hospital Java House serves more people in two hours than the Borders does all day convinced her I could handle shifts by myself, early morning, weekends, whatever. So I'm pleased about that; if I can do this full time, it'd pretty much be exactly what I wanted for the next couple of years or so.

Until then, I am sitting at a desk in my dad's law office, sorting employee documents so an immigration expert can go through them later and figure out who's an illegal immigrant and who's not. Honestly, it's not that bad; I'm putting it in an Excel document, so I have unrestricted access to the internet, everyone who works here is really nice, and as long as I make progress I can come and go as I please. And sometimes my dad buys me lunch. :3

Last night was some highly enjoyable nerdery - I went to games night at a friend of Billy's, and played a horrendous game of WarMachine. Eventually I will learn how to use Aiyana and Holt, and then they will be properly badass, but until then I'll stick with bringing as many cannons as possible and attempting to blow people's faces off. My Talon got more play this time, which was pretty awesome; I can't wait to try him against another jack, rather than a Hordes warbeast.

Gah, all this is doing is getting me SUPER excited about GenCon. I can only hope Privateer Press ponies up the Retribution book and battle box, as I'm thinking they probably will. Please don't disappoint me when I'm trying to give you monies!

Today I have to have my wisdom teeth checked out by my dentist, and HOPEFULLY he will tell me I can have them pulled, like, tomorrow. They hurt and it's making me whiney...
