Oh sure, oh sure, OH SURE.

Now that I've settled into a job (that I will refrain from describing in case they find this web page, which should tell the astute something about my feelings about it), NOW that I've been there two weeks, NOW the HR person from [publishing division of media giant] calls me back. After a month. I'd stopped calling her because she kept putting me off. I had to take this job even though I really wanted that other one, that other one that's in a field I'm even vaguely interested in. NOW they call me back.

The poetic sickness of it all is that she calls me on the day [the job I've settled for] tells me I have to start coming in at 8. Starting tomorrow. Just to kick my misery in the shins.

Oh, and I did abysmally on the Latin quiz today. I could answer almost nothing. At least I knew some subjunctive forms.

Everybody's got the right to be happy
Don't stay mad, life's not as bad as it seems.
If you keep your goal in sight, you can climb to any height.
Everybody's got the right to their dreams...

Even Sondheim mocks me.
