Jan 15 - The Ides Are Out To Get Me
From my current Twitter stream:
Oy, dealing with capital-B Bureaucracy is so tough for me, especially when you can only call in on two days a week, since I've been out of town and rather ::koff:: preocuppied with holiday, family, and sickness issues. So taking up the struggle again, because my eligibility is STILL not cleared up, the Section 30 extension needs some sort of sign-off and its still.dragging.on.
On the brighter side, I'm seriously considering trying out for a Census Taker job, which would get me out into the neighborhoods. Although, I'm expecting competition will be fierce this year....

FYI, I'm thinking about going to Arisia on Saturday, but since there's apparently a good chance of them hitting their membership cap, I'm not sure what that means for the Saturday-only membership that I haven't bought yet.
