Take that big boobs!

The much lauded shirt purchases from glarkware have finally arrived, and they fit! Woot! Gotta say, Nan, that I figured you'd be proud of this one. Heh. The one I'm wishing I'd ordered too? Here.
Really, though, I'm ridiculously pleased with how well they fit. I mean, the long sleeved one even looks kinda sexy if you don't mind a little bit of the short-Mexican-girl pudge around the middle. And come on, it's just more to love, right? :-P
Wayne should be in Spain by now. Actually, she should have gotten there last Friday, but when her, you never know how things are going to turn out. I find myself rather jealous. Mexico was brilliant, but it was good to come back to the States. Unfortunately, I'm starting to get the wandering bug again, and so I find myself researching jobs overseas. Current plan? Japan.
There's this company...
Or this one...
Both look equally worthwhile. The benefits (in terms of pay and medical coverage, support while in Japan, etc.) all seem comparable. At this point it essentially comes down to a matter of getting my ass in gear and applying. They each say 2-6 months prior to the desired departure day is a good time to apply, so I figure now's as good a time as any. Two months from now would put me some time in the middle of February, and really that's as early as I'd want to leave. Even six months isn't too bad a time.
And while Wayne is being an au pare (spelling on that? Anyone? You know what I mean, though, right? A nanny. That's what she's doing.) I can either be wasting away in a cubicle, and watching my action figures collect dust, OR I could be some place new, and exciting and far away.
We won't go into the fact that the idea scares the living crap out of me. Guh. New culture? Yes. Potential for new adventures? Yes. Total gut churning fear of not knowing a single person in the entire country? Yes. But it'll be worthwhile. That's what I keep telling myself. It's what I believe too. And I'll keep on believing it until I convince myself otherwise. Now, just to apply and get this show on the road.
Shut up. A freak show is still a show.
Also,
pvt_tiger, I'm really sorry, but someone (not me I swear!) opened your cheese. I'll buy you a new one. You're gonna be gone next week anyway. It's not like you were gonna take it on the plane with you. Were you?

all right already!
