AUBREEVISION - Observations from the far side of the dial
If it's tangy and brown
The last few days have been perfect snowman-making days, thick with big slushy flakes that mat in your hair and your eyelashes. Damn you, non-waterproof mascara!
Wednesday, the day I last wrote, was a big black hole of a day and I am just now emerging from the crummy headstate I was in. Lack of sleep, financial stress and a general sense of incompetence combined to thoroughly befoul my mood. It's part and parcel of being unemployed and having too much time to think - my brain starts to eat itself alive.
But all this should soon change, hopefully, with a job interview this afternoon and time spent with friends this weekend. The job seems like it would be perfect - working in a women's gym located a ten-minute walk from my house, in a lower-level position but with the potential to become a personal trainer. I suspect they pay a bit more than my last job, plus a free gym membership, and I believe the position is part-time, which would allow me lots of writing time.
Mnemonic device of the day:
"Righty tighty, lefty loosey."
It's meant to remind you how to unscrew things like bottle tops, bolts etc. I encountered it online and laughed because it reminded me of Ned Flanders' guide to apple beverages:
"If it's clear and yella, you got juice there, fella. If it's tangy and brown you're in cider town."
