I don't want to go to work tomorrow. Somebody offer me a job.
It's the end of my 2006 vacations today, and now I have to go back to my regular job as a Chinese Water Torture Receptor, i.e. Retail Manager. I hate it, but I'm good at it. I've been seeing a career counselor and so far I've learned a lot from him: mainly that if someone were standing on the moon right now, they could clearly see that my personality type is all wrong for retail management.

I want to talk about progressive politics all day. Or do something in the arts. Or ANYTHING in which I feel like I'm doing something of benefit to mankind.

Anyone got anything like that?

A scantily-clad houseboy.

7. It's OK right now, but I know that just being around your aura
will bring out the very best in me.

That's a very nice outfit you're wearing, sir.
