What do I do every day?

Wait in hope that one of these will ring and I'll have a job... an interview, or an opportunity to submit the cv, or best of all, a job.
Dang do I hear that...
I thought perhaps I should update - one of them did ring, and the interview went well, and now I have a two month contract. Yay work!

Since Paul's dad is from Ireland and since we now live in the Ireland of Canada, I had a lot to choose from, but I had to go with one of my favourite items in our house, that also happens to be a wedding gift from Paul's Granny in Ireland.

In lie of posting a picture of my grandma (she wouldn't appreciate it), here is a picture of a shirt for a band that has at least one Irish member!

In related news, I once balanced the mix and did substitute vocals for a Flogging Molly cover band. Don't know if you all knew that. It was pretty fun.

Leave them; one thing you may come to learn about me is that I'm a picture-whore. If I'm not taking them, I'm wanting to see them. This thread is pretty loose on the rules and with good cause. Creativity, associations, etc. make for better results than me listing out a long series of Dos and Don'ts. So, Do! :) Except for deleting; that's a Don't.

Hell, you're right. Did you know he has abs that transcend space and time?

Sorry for the mix up; I guess that's the real thing.




And by "thing" I mean Jeebsy. Not the blurred out...oh, nevermind.

Happy Paddy's Day Wil. I just learned that it's an American tradition to eat corned beef and cabbage on Paddy's Day. I can confirm this is not something that is actually done in Ireland at all, I had to even look up what corned beef is. But apparently it is an Irish-American tradition, so enjoy if you happen to partake in this!

I'm not aware of any traditional dish served on Paddy's Day, food tends to get in the way of the proper way to observe the holiday. Bacon (not streaky American bacon) and cabbage is a common Irish dish though, and maybe that's what is supposed to be served.
