Mwa-hahahaha!  
Kya-hahahaha!  
Bwa-hahahaha!  
Gya-hahahaha!

They said I was MaD! They said it couldn’t be done–but I done did it!

Ashley has a job interview! _yes!_ _YES!_

Okay–the weird part is, I don’t even know what I’m being considered for. But some lucky manager out there actually responded to a copy of my resume!

(I have never held a salaried position at any job, and had (until now) never even been given an interview, despite long, arduous, repeated attempts spanning several months)

I want to hug and kiss every last one of you. Even **Uniball** (you weirdo!)

Awww _pouts_ I’ve been putting out Resumes since October and no one’s called me back yet… and then last night on the news they have the temerity to say there is a lack of part-time workers here! Oh the irony… _sighs_ Ah well I’m happy for you! Good luck at the interview!

good luck, I’ve been salary now for a year and a half, a little more work, but a lot more pay, a switchoff I love!

have fun, and don’t make all your co~workers (read :peons) start to sing \*\* “she’s got a big brown ring around her nose, and it grows and grows and grows…” \*\*
