deathpixieI'm determined not to get down about this, but since people have been asking about it, I should pass on the news.
Tonight, in my mailbox, was a letter from the CDPP about the job interview I did back before Easter. The usual: "We regret to inform you, you have been unsuccessful, we hope you apply for any further positions, blah, blah, blah." So yeah, another rejection letter to add to the recycling bin.
Man, this bites. I'm going to be a clerk of courts until I die.
Still, also in the mailbox were two birthday cards, one from my ever-faithful auntie Sandra, and another from Mum, Dad and David. With a cheque for $100. O.O So it looks like I'll be able to go to the second hand CD place after all, and also get new contacts. :) And wihlst my usual co-drinking conspirators had other plans this evening, I had a rather pleasant lunch, and then a few beers after work, before coming home. The birthday itself is tomorrow (being Saturday the 10th, being a final reminder to those who will nevitably ask me when it was *grins*) and as yet I have no plans. I was meaning to arrange dinner, then got sick and didn't have the energy to do it. So, Maelstrom, you're off the hook.
Except you, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]. I expect at least one beer on my birthday, and I hate drinking alone. *grins*
And now for a quiet night in - I'm still pretty tired with this damn cough, and to be honest, I really wanted that job. Ah well, better luck next time.h

Considering Rossi's usual is a pint, I now have the strangest image of what she does when she goes to the pub...
*grins and runs*
