East Coast Betty for Hire

posted by mihow on April 19th, 2004

It’s job search time. I began this morning. I have noticed something about the wording for west coast job descriptions in comparison to the east coast, on the west coast people use terminology like this.

While I am not a copywriter, I’m pretty killer. So I applied letting them know as much. I’m so killer, apparently I’m able to commute to LA every day from San Francisco. Now I must work on the provocative part.

This weekend, I took about 159 pictures. Some of which are NC17. When I get around to downloading them, I’ll post them for all to see. But in the meantime, I have classes to teach and radical jobs to apply to.

Oh, and I’m still totally freaking out.

We fly out there this Friday for the weekend. We’re going to find a place to live while staying in the Best Western downtown. We’re very poor right now, so we cutting corners as much as possible. For example, we take the redeye, getting us back east by 5:50 a.m. It was like 300 dollars cheaper to do that. I’ll be a pleasure next Monday while teaching.

I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow where I will sing for some drugs. I am just not willing or ready to fly. And the last trip we made, I spent the entire way back sobbing AND on valium. I hope she takes pity on me and doesn’t see me as some total flake in search of a few pills. Though, that’s starting to sound about right.

So many things to decide on. So little time.

    On my first flight home after 9/11, I got there 3 hours early and proceeded to drink 62 oz. of beer and promptly passed out for the (only) 1 hour flight. My parents were greeted to their still drunk daughter at the airport. If things don’t work out with the doctor, you could always go that route…

    Things will be ok. I promise.

    I’m confused. did you delete a comment where he actually messed with you, or am I just not reading into things enough?

    odd, though. reminds me of when wild-eyed strangers approach you on the street just to talk crazy at you.

  23. mihow Says:
    April 19th, 2004 at 12:36 PM

    James wrote as TobyJoe and was saying not nice things. He is no longer with us.

    I was confused as well, calvo. I hadn’t seen the comment.

    James, we were just a bit worried about the slight anti-gay thing coming from you. You can post. Just be nice :] Life is too short.

    yes. we surround ourselves with degenerate scum. liberals, homosexuals, even the occasional non-white.

    i know, it’s sodom over here, but the rule is to love it or leave it :)

    oh, and that “worse than your wife” stuff could very well get a whole bunch of alcoholic sodomites after you. if you were joking, just chill. this move is a big deal and is hard on us. keep it encouraging or keep out. period. you are now unbanned.

    Hey, I’m James’ friend Joe. He is kinda a stooge but trust me he means well.

    You want to hear a good story, have him tell you about the girl that just exited his life. I think I’d move a couple of continents after all the stuff he went through with her. James new rule #1 Don’t date any more strippers.

    Enjoy San Fran. The BART system is the best.

    In youth my wings were strong and tireless But I did not know the mountains. In age I knew the mountains But my weary wings would not carry me to my vision. Genius is wisdom and youth.
