    You're an Alaskan.

    Doesn't the Alaska government pay you oil-soaked Liberty Dollars to sit around your shack, sippin' whiskey and fucking polar bears or something?

    Why do you need actual employment?

    Oh yeah, I'll just subside on about $1000 a year. Being an Alaskan rocks.

    My younger brother is 6' 1"-ish. He's been taller than me since he was twelve and it's never ceased to piss me off. I am so mad that I got the shitty genes from both sides of the family. Shortness, curly motherfucking hair and near sightedness from my mother's side, premature grey hair from my father's. Whereas my brother got the best genes. He's tall, has fantastic hair without a trace of grey, and doesn't need glasses. He was pigeon-toed as a kid, but you'd never be able to tell it now unless you were looking for it. Fucker.

    That was pretty embarrassing.

    I might have a teacher's assistant job after an interview I should have next week. Sadly it isn't enough to move out of my parents and still save money for masters/teaching certifications programs. But it still is money.

    Not sure if this is towards me. But I am not an undergrad student. I graduated in 05. So, I would be working full time but it is only for part of the year and rather just save that money towards paying for grad school and not going horribly into debt? Also, I wouldn't be able to start grad school till next summer at the earliest(special program) or next fall.

    I've been dealing with this mass of frizz my whole life. It was great when I was young, still a sun-bleached blonde, and looked like Shirley Temple (complete with tap dancing skills). But I got teased for my shitty frizzy hair soooo much in school. There is so much I would love to be able to do with my hair that I can't do without first putting in hours of work to straighten it, and then put in the extra time to style it besides. :(
