Just what one wants to hear a week or two before Christmas

So, the organisation that was arrange those job interviews I've been going to recently - all three of them - finally ended up getting back to me with a response.

And I didn't get a position at any of them. Dammit.

So now I am all grumpy and pouty at that great big waste of time and effort. I would be totally be open to people finding something fun and happy to distract me now.

Aside from that, I need to go into town tomorrow to finish off my Christmas shopping, since despite my best efforts, I couldn't quite complete it all at the Night Market. Alas.

And your regular dose of links:
- As YouTube advertising goes, this is actually ridiculously clever.
- I'm not entirely sure I have words for this video. But here are some key words, anyway: Monks, Fire, Brass Band, Segways.

Oh that tip ex thing is clever. I like 'marries' and 'tip exes' although I was rather surprised when 'fucks' worked too...

You tried "fucks" too, huh?

I liked hugs myself. I'm curious as to if there's a complete list somewhere.

Ouch. *pats* Sorry to hear that.

Here's a few YouTube links that might cheer you up.

Gurren 4koma AMV.

And some dancing Stormtroopers.

P.S. I'm also writing some fluff pieces for IHTW's side story stuff (to get my skills refreshed because the actual chapter is killing me), so I might have some stuff you can read too if you'd like.

LOL dancing Stormtrooper. (And I love the fact that random people occasionally decided to join in. It's like a reali life musical! Only not.)

Oh hey, more of those side stories. I was wondering if there were going to be any more after that first one. But what's your trouble with the actual chapter, then?

I think that part of Tokyo just rolls with things like that, lol.

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to get on more of those, but I've just been so busy lately- I'm writing one right now with Suzaku, Euphemia, Lelouch, and some of the other Brittanian royals as kids, but I also have ideas for a Kallen-Naoto-Father backstory fic and a short story as to how Rivalz joined the resistance.

As for the actual chapter... I dunno, right now I keep trying and failing to get any real progress done. I think a short break from the main story might do me some good, that's all.

Tokyo's one of those places I really must visit some time.

Whee more backstory stories! Well, let me know when those are done.

And yeah, a break might help you with the main story a bit.
