That would make excellent icon fodder if anyone was looking to be inspired...

Okay, I'll admit that season four of 30 Rock is taking a little while to get going (though I really enjoyed 'Stone Mountain'), but this? Seems to be wilfully missing the point at times:
There aren’t any major outstanding conflicts between the show’s core characters to resolve or develop, and the show has let some potential new directions, like sexual tension between Jack and Liz, lapse entirely.
Yes, because as we all know, truly all shows improve immeasurably when they finally allow those two characters with sexual tension to get together. It has never once caused a terrifying downward spiral or anything. (More to the point: I don't see Jack and Liz as having sexual tension anyway - as far as I can see, they're just two people with very different takes on the world who nonetheless 'get' each other. But that's not "sexual tension". People who suggest that a man and a woman have "sexual tension" just because they happen to get on well sometimes are like people who consider a man looking at another man to be HoYay, regardless of the context.) I can't think of a worse thing the show could do right now than act on this supposed sexual tension, because that's not even remotely what this show should be about.
Still, I guess having three seasons as a critical darling with a devoted cult following before the backlash properly kicked in is pretty good going. And in fairness, as I said at the beginning, season four is, so far, not the show at its greatest, so it's not even that I think discussions of a possible decline in quality are entirely unjustified at this point. But I'm just not convinced crisis talks are needed just yet. Then again, I liked 'The One With The Cast Of Night Court', despite TWoP assuring me that everyone hates Jennifer Aniston, and I think Jenna is more often than not the funniest character in the show, so maybe I'm just WRONG.

I want out of my job, so, so badly. I think this other co-worker of mine might take a job in Boston, even though she never considered moving back up there. And that other guy is leaving...I guess depending where/when he gets into school. Work is just going to suck. Of course, the smart panda thing to do would be to throw myself into looking everywhere for potential opportunities, but I remain lazy and unmotivated, and doing "homework" on a Friday night. A Friday night when I should be at L's, with his straight friends (for once!). I did make myself some pasta/pesto and squash for dinner and it came out half well. That spaghetti squash is a little trickier than I thought. Tasty, though.
My father asked me if he could talk to the career counselor about me and I'm kind of opposed to it. They can't use the "we're paying for it' excuse b/c I'm paying for once in my life. I just don't want her to tell him how unmotivated I am, and then I get yelled at. Again- my own fault. Sometimes I can't get out of my own way. Little things at work piss me off on a daily basis- people leaving half open coffee packets or wet paper towels on the kitchen counter. People leaving boxes around. Feeling like a housekeeper. Missing phone calls. Having a daily battle with the guy who covers for me, and he's off growing plants and attracting flies and generally being a nuisance.

I got about four hours of sleep last night and I am exhausted. FYI.
I got a job! It's temporary (just six months) but it's with a public library, doing actual librarian work full-time, for actual pay. Not much, but still! MONEY. Very exciting. I have to take a drug test on Tuesday and then once that's processed I actually can start working. I'm nervous for a lot of reasons but also looking forward to it, so cross your fingers for me.
This comic amuses me (it's about Twitter -- click to make it bigger):
AND. Now I am going to hunt down
mandyremains for FRIDAY FUN TIMEZ.
I give today a shiny gold star.
Dear Flist:
Today, I need shopping help.
First up is socks. I bought some knee socks and they are SO TIGHT around my calves. I know I'm a big girl, but I'm not like, an elephant! Surely socks exist that don't double as tourniquets. Any ideas?
Second, tights. Same problem as above. I just want to wear an above-the-knee skirt and have my legs covered! I need one pair of comfy, thick, black tights. Those exist right? WHERE?
Lastly, I'm in a shoe crisis again. I need adorable, non-leather shoes/boots that I can wear with pants and stand in for eight hours. I am not a fan of flats. It would be GREAT if I could wear socks too. (I hate being barefoot in my shoes.) These don't actually exist, do they? SIGH.

I was laying in bed stewing on this and got so pissed I had to get up and turn my computer back on so I could rant about it.
