There has to be a fucking rule somewhere on the super uptight l-word.com fanfiction site that you can't fucking spam it with a million reposted chapters of your shitty fanfic. I mean, they have a rule for everything there! I remember the weirdness with lilpinkchainsaw and them banning her or whatever for talking or referencing that Sharmen focused it-girl website. So if snarky and fucking cool as shit lilpinkchainsaw can get into trouble for that why the fuck can't the people who are deluging the site with their endless amount of weird ass fanfic all at once get into trouble too?

STOP POSTING IT ALL AT ONCE! I beg of you!

Wow. That sounded really insane. I'm not even really that angry. lol. I think I type angry. Hee. Whatever that means. Like my written words are angrier than the reality of me. Uhmmm... that sounds really douchey doesn't it? Yeah. I feel like one of those commercials where mother and daughter are walking on the beach talking about absorbency or something. Not good.

I haven't been talking about my job hunt because it's been fucked up and weird. I still have a cash flow because I save my money and I'm working part time in my friend Jake's motorcycle shop plus doing some bartending which gets me nice tips. But today I did a phone interview with a place that I'm really wanting to work for. I think I have a good chance because it's an entry level position that only requires the most basic stuff. You know, being 18, having graduated HS or having a GED, car insurance, pass a drug test and background check.

It's for support staff positions for a developmentally disabled living community. They have all sorts of positions and they give benefits if you're FT or PT which is great considering I don't think I could work FT if I go back to school. But then again, they have a huge variety in work shifts so I'm thinking I could attend class during the day for creative writing and work there at night. Who knows. I'm really wanting this job though because I've done work with developmentally disabled and though it is trying at times it's very rewarding stuff. And to be sort of asinine, the pay for this job is really good. Especially since I have a BFA and that apparently raises the opening salary I'll be getting.

Hopefully I'll hear back from their HR director soon. Oh! If you're curious to see the place I've just been babbling about here's their website:

http://www.cliservices.org/

It's pretty basic but it gives information on them and that's probably all they care about. I mean, why the fuck should they do one of those fancy Flash websites, right? Bah. I hate Flash websites.

Someone really should make a new FF database! I don't even bother going to Lword.com anymore as sifting through endless ads and crap fanfic really does get on my nerves! All I want to do is enjoy a good ol Helacious/Danish fanfic but it's impossible to even filter out the endless crap that's on there. And then, once you find something worth reading, the bloody page breaks and ads just keep on giving me a headache that I'm put off reading it all together...
Someone pass me a shotgun...

Anyway... good luck with the job! Sounds like a goodun!

I totally get what you mean when you're talking about the fanfic. It takes ages to find the Danish fanfic I care about. I can imagine that it would be even worse when you're a writer yourself (I'm just a reader cause my English is by far not good enough to write my fabulous Danish fantasies down, lol).
The job sounds very interesting by the way. To me it seems kinda difficult to work with developmentally disabled. I guess you have to have a lot of patience. Good luck, I hope you get it!
