My URL seems not to be working, for people who aren't me. I can see all my photos just fine, and all my pages, but others don't seem to be able to. Which is annoying. I'm going to have to figure out what's going on-- it's probably something with my domain name registrar.

I make pretty good mac and cheese, if I do say so myself. It's waiting to go in the oven now; I'll put it in at 6:30 so it's ready when Dave comes home.

I am craving baked squash, but I have none to bake, and dave doesn't really like it anyway. :(

I am also craving a novel. I haven't just sat and read a novel in a while, except at my parents' house. I'm having trouble writing mine, and I'm thinking perhaps it would be worthwhile to read one in the genre I'm trying to write, just so I can remember what they're like.
But of course I don't want to read any of the ones I have. So, I have to hike over to the library and get some there. I really want to do what my parents are doing, and re-read the entire Patrick O'Brien series about Aubrey and Maturin from beginning to end in sequential order. Those are excellent novels.
But they're not my genre. Though they make me want to resume historical fiction.

I am despairing of finding a job. I went on two interviews yesterday. One, the manager actually spoke to me, and was kind, and said I had a good resume and interviewed very well, but he needed someone with experience. He couldn't recommend any good places for me offhand but said he was sure I'd have no trouble finding somewhere.
A little disappointed, but bolstered, I went on to the next place, a sleepy little neighborhood pub with a restaurant attached. The barmaid disinterestedly took my application and said they weren't really hiring despite the "HELP WANTED" sign, but the owner had another bar that was.

I'm a bit limited in where I can work by the fact that I don't have a car. So there's that, which is a pain in my ass. I just cannot work out the public transport system here sufficiently to go anywhere in the city and suburbs at will-- it's just too much to figure out. I don't know the city that well, I don't understand bus route maps that well, I just am having too much trouble.

It's a PAIN and I just want a JOB and this is too much stupid crap now.
I'd say fuck it, and just go get a job at Target, but I know no retail job will give me Thanksgiving weekend off, and if I don't have Thanksgiving weekend off I won't see Katy before she deploys to Iraq again.

ARGH.
