    I started reading chatlogs of old conversations wth my boss.

    Jordyn: hey can we get $500 cat5 cablle? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000I1X6PM/ref=cm_rdp_product
    Bossman: Yeah, I heard about that thing.
    Bossman: What a waste of money.
    Jordyn: pleeeeaaase
    Jordyn: apparently it's great for time machines.
    Bossman: I'm sure it would make downloading cat pictures go a lot faster.
    Jordyn: crisper 1s! zingier 0s!
    Bossman: If that's not their catch phrase, it sure should be!
    Jordyn: Can I move to marketing now?
    Jordyn: Or am I still in charge of garbage?

    There's a pretty girl working here now and, since we're the same age, everyone is trying to get us to hook up

    And I'm like "It takes more than being the same age to be attracted to someone"

    Nobody seems to really get it.

    Yeah, I mean, does she even appreciate comic books at all?

    That's a pretty important one.

    Deemer at some point in the day say the phrase "I'm gonna do what I want to do, and I wanna dye my hair blue"


    That's enough gay to explain things to all your co-workers.

    Also acceptable is "Jamie is over and Jamie is gone, Jamie's decided it's time to move on"

    Bossman: Is anyone on the machine next to yours?
    Jordyn: no
    Jordyn: No one ever sits there.
    Jordyn: I think people are scared to.
    Bossman: Weird.
    Jordyn: oh my god stuff is happening to it.
    Jordyn: what are you doing, you wizard man
    Bossman: Maybe that machine is possessed?
    Bossman: Or maybe I'm running updates.
    Bossman: It's tough to say.
    Jordyn: It's telling me to hail satan.

    So I read sometimes at work, especially on weekends because it tends to be slow in the first few hours.

    The lady I work with notices this and starts telling me about a guy who worked here and used to read all the time.

    She makes sure to note that 1) He believes in UFOs and 2) He's black.

    The best part of it was the way she made him being sound like some far-fetched thing, moreso than the UFO thing.

    She told me "And he's black!"

    And I said "Okay..."

    And she replied with "No, really!"

    Also, Stale, WaM and I went to a place in Portland called Cacao that had some AMAZING chocolate; there is also a local chocolate facory here in Seattle in Fremont that I used to work near which does some amazing work.

    There's a really fancy chocolate place in Queen Anne, too, across the street from the 5 Spot. I definitely felt like the sales people were looking down on me for wearing jeans there.

    Interview over.

    The dude seemed to like me. The place is far far more sedate than my previous gig. Eh. Though, they are stable and have a pretty solid approach to things there.

    It was for a PR gig, but he's also going to shop my stuff around to the creative department, which is awesome.

    I'm pleased.

    I also have a solid amount of freelance copy work to do this week. Yay being able to pay rent!

    How about an hour long nonstop session because the college game just let out?
    We made close to a thousand dollars in that hour alone.
