Daily Double!

So remember how a while back I said that I just wanted one good thing to happen?

 

It did.

 

I have been selected to be on Jeopardy!!!!! I’ve taken the test every year since I was eligible for the College version, and I was chosen to try out in person twice (once in college, once last year). I got the call yesterday that I’m going to be on the show!!! I fly out to LA in August for the taping. This does not feel real.

 

 

YAY!!!!

Woohoo!

It’s my birthday. Still don’t have a job.

YAY, BIRTHDAY!

Even More Spam Poetry

Whatever weird computer program generates spam these days missed its calling as a beat poet of yore.

I precisely wished to say thanks again. I am not sure the things I would have tried in the absence of the type of information documented by you directly on such concern. Previously it was the traumatic situation for me, but coming across a expert tactic you handled it made me to cry with delight. Now i’m happy for your assistance as well as expect you know what a great job you happen to be carrying out teaching the others via your blog. I’m certain you’ve never got to know all of us.

*snap* *snap* Yeah.

Promotion

Self-promotion, that is.

Did you guys know that Gainfully Something has a Facebook presence (a phrase that I both hate and use frequently)? Well, it does. Give it a like if you’d… like. I post some stuff on there that I don’t post on here, like Unemployment Tips and links to videos of puppies and stuff.

Thanks, folks!

More Spam Fun

Since I posted about my constant, chronic back pain, I’ve gotten some fun spam, mostly from “Manhattan Chiropractic Care,” which isn’t really relevant to me, since that’s… 1,000 miles away. And I couldn’t afford it even if I was in Manhattan. And they’re not real.

Anyway, this latest spam contained another lovely sentence that I thought I’d share with you:

They could be sensation superior swiftly!

 

Make that today’s mantra. Also, say it out loud, because it’s pretty fun.

Some Spam Wisdom

This site has a spam comment filter (and I approve all comments before they’re posted, so that’s why it might take a few hours for yours to show up), and sometimes the spam is hysterical. I thought this was a real comment for the first sentence, but then it gets weird… and then it gets sort of nice again.

Thank you for all of your effort on this web page. My mum delights in managing research and it is easy to see why. All of us learn all regarding the compelling means you offer powerful secrets via the website and inspire participation from people on this concern so our favorite princess is without a doubt understanding a whole lot. Have fun with the rest of the year. You are always carrying out a glorious job.

Don’t worry. *This* favorite princess is without a doubt understanding the whole lot.

Tuesday needs more goats.

(It is Tuesday, right?)
