i am sorry hon

i was up much too late reading all families are psychotic and had a slew of odd dreams to pay for it.

last night, i dreamt conan o’brien had a crush on me. not only did he have a crush on me, but his studio audience convinced him to fly out to minnesota to woo me.

yeah. that’s not even the weird part. the weird part comes in when he shows up at my place of employment to take me out. conan is decked out in a white suit with big, red polka dots. he takes me to the mall of america and i keep calling him honey or hon. everytime i catch myself calling him such a term of endearment, i apologize.

at one point he’s looking at bowls and i am sitting in a chair. i say, “find anything you like hon? oops, i am sorry.” he comes over, sits on my lap and says that he adores it when i call him hon and i shouldn’t apologize.

and that’s all i remember.

Things I Want to Tell You

Interview #2 at place I would enjoy working at went really well. I'm pretty pumped. [+]

Can I get an AMEN! This woman responds to the Jezebel Hullabaloo the way I wish I could have, had I not been blacking out with the rage. I agree that drinking a lot and having a lot of sex with different men is not feminism. It might be your lifestyle choice and a lot of fun -- go you, but it has nothing at all to do with being a feminist. I think once I simmer down a bit, I will chalk up the whole Hullabaloo to a few drunk 20something girls being stupid and naive, because, that's what 20something girls do. We've all done it, and not to get all sage woman of the earth, but something changes for women when they turn 30. I don't know what it is, I cannot define it, but other woman will agree 30 is a magical age where suddenly you seem more yourself, you think before you speak, you look back at your 20something self and realize what an idiot you were, but you still love that girl. I'm just hoping these Jezebel-girls will be so kind to their 20something selves when they look back at how absolutely foolish they were. {via fimoculous, whose comments are all men discussing the issue which makes me a little sad}. [+]

I had avoided the whole Jezebel hullabaloo until this morning when I was reading Mediation's thoughts on the nonsense. I followed his links to the Metafilter discussion and it was after watching the video there that I blacked out from sheer rage. I'm so angry I can't even write anything coherent. [+]

I just applied for a for reals job for the first time since 2000 (three fors in one sentence, go me). I feel a little like I'm going to barf. I forgot how nerve-wracking it is to want something like this. [+]

"Never mind that while he was on my ass about being in lust with a celebrity who lives in France and has two children with a French model, Greg was in love with a girl from, you know, like, down the street." Peabo cracks me up. [+]

I am celebrating my independence by sitting around in my pajamas until noon. [+]
