1. I have Killian's and gin, but am also kinda sick. Should I drink tonight?
2. If I do, should I assemble Orks, or play Fallout 3, Oblivion, Knights of the Old Republic 1/2, or Just Cause 2?
if you have to play oblivion, try nehrim. it's a full conversion mod that's pretty great. done in like the gothic style.
I have it on 360. :?
And Zampanov, the only good multiplayer game I have is Halo: Reach, and while it's fun, small multiplayer games aren't relaxing to me. Something like Battlefield 2, if I had a computer that could still run it, would be relaxing though.
Why do I always freeze up when it comes to writing cover letters for jobs that I really want to get? I made it through graduate school, I should be good at bullshitting by now.

Because cover letters are an awkward point halfway between a formality and an advertisement. You never know if they're going to read it or not. If they do read it, it has to be good enough to pique their interest but not so good that it sounds like bullshit or flattery.

Naturally, first day in a long while that it gets up to a balmy 9 degrees out and I can't enjoy it because as I'm walking outside I'm being buffeted by 100km/h winds.

In short, cover letters suck.
What are you stuck on?
The places I apply for are typically public/academic jobs, so they're legally/contractually obligated to read them. My problem is that I hate boasting about myself, but that's the whole point of a cover letter. Plus, for jobs that I really want to get, it's hard for me to pick a route I want to take and then stick with it rather than go on about all the different ways this would click.
Like architecture and planning librarian for SUNY Buffalo. I studied to be an architect and just graduated to be a librarian, plus Buffalo sounds a lot like where I grew up. Or entry level librarian at Chicago Public Library. Which, well let's just say that I probably bore people in [chat] about Chicago at times. If I can get the interview I'm sure I'll be able to nail it, or at least feel like I gave it a good shot. It's just that the cover letter is the step towards getting the interview that I know I'm going to screw up and so instead wind up dying cold and alone, unloved.

Tanqueray is totally acceptable gin, yes.

People who suggest Gin and Tonic can fuck themselves.

ever have that overwhelming feeling of "blah" that you can't pin to any specific reasons, but can't shake?
How does it feel to like gross tonic?
I usually sleep it off. Or watch the best worst action movies (such as Wanted). Good fer what ails ye.
I'll definitely keep this in mind, thanks!
Strange, isn't it?
It gives me new respect for that movie.
I'm glad Instant is doing so well, they've put a lot of stuff I wanted to watch on there.
Here's hoping
It's not so much a matter of popularity as it is licensing issues and our insane copyright system.
