Some other enablers might do well for themselves but their shady anti-counterfeit goods measures shun legitimate dropshippers and retailers alike.

Pretty good day. Any day I have off is good, but I felt like a Real Adult today. I woke up and walked to the grocery store, cleaned the house, and did some random chores. Then I fixed my moped, which had a broken speedometer- but the manufacturer sent me a new cable. Installing ti was hard work as a mechanic I am not. They also didn't send directions. But an hour later with grease on my hands (and face?) I felt like I had really accomplished something. I called the two staffing agencies I applied to, one still had no jobs, but the other said they had an office they had sent a worker to that might need another admin assistant, and a Goucher alum works at the staffing agency so I might have an in there. I still feel like a life failure for not being able to land a basic entry level job with a college degree, but such are the times I guess. The zoo just got a dude with his masters in child psych, so I feel a little better. Better doesn't pay my student loans once November rolls around, and my rent when I'm fired in January. Add to this Gillians general level of stress from working and going to grad school. If this was the 80s I would be working and putting her through school so she didn't have to. And if it was the 50s I would be working and she would be waiting at home with a cocktail. I'm not sure life was better back then, but these are the trials and tribulations of my life as a covergirl. Good things are happening too, lest we forget and be smothered in negativity. Save the Dates (std) for the wedding are finally being sent out, I wish I could invite everyone I know but I can't. Or I hate you. Crab Boy is back together! That has def perked me up, you just can't stop the music. Got two poster designs finished already. We are the future of music. Darkon will happen eventually- it was all set for November 8th, but then I was reminded I need/really want to go to SC that weekend so I need to convince 6 ppl to put it off. And we were all set to LARP too. Shame on me for being disorganized. Finally the boardgame group Ashley is organizing might meet at some point and have a mini-con, i think this is both desirable and necessary. As long as I know far enough ahead of time I can request off whenever, so I hope that comes to pass. It's after 9, time to make a drink.

I don't care!!
I don't care if your dress in cut floor length or like an inch shorter!
I don't care if the colors are orange and blue or orange and cerulean!
I don't care if we get a DJ or rent a sound system!
I don't care which outfit you wear to work today!
I don't care which flower print our invitations are in!
I don't care if the text is yellow or light green!

Karl is one of my best friends. I started to write a history of our friendship, but everyone who cares already knows. The point is Karl is awesome, and pickles are squeaky in his teeth.

Listen,
In times long past there was a noble Kingdom inhabited by all manner of creatures wise and wonderful. But a dark cloud lay over portions of the land, evil persisted in the form of terrible monsters that stalked the weak and innocent. One of these monsters was known as the Cyclops. I will tell you of the horrifying apparition, and the tale of its downfall.
Cyclops was a massive man shaped beast, with one large eye and the strength of ten men. It could make its skin hard as steel, unable to be pierced by all but the most splendid weaponry. Villagers cowered at its approach, offering tribute of cattle, or sheep, or even children to ward off its terrible anger. Darker powers grew aware of the Cyclops, and it was recruited to serve as soldier in the army of one darker and stronger than mortal comprehension.
Its task was to guard a waystation between planes, where it grew strong on the flesh of creatures from every corner of the multiverse. Humans, elves, dwarves, all fell to the swing of its mighty axe. A group of adventurers found their way into the portal one fateful night, but the cyclops was unfazed. It looked upon their numbers and grew smug- it was not alone on its post, as it served with other monsters foul. Trolls crouching in the shadows lept at the newcomers, and were caught short by the flash of an enchanted blade. Two trolls fell quickly, but a third impaled the wielder on its spear, and the Cyclops began to laugh. What left here could challenge his might? Another human fell, and all that was left were four small creatures with token armament, three grey of skin and one long of beard. He began to laugh.
And laugh, and laugh, as the old man and the goblins formed a wall of brittle, cheap steel. These pathetic wanderers could no more hope to defeat him than they could hope to challenge the Maker himself. He laughed at the fear in their eyes, laughed at the bravery they managed to find within themselves, laughed at their whimpering battle cry. Laughed, forgot to harden his skin, laughed, was pierced again and again by the weapons of courage, laughed, and died.
