The Worst Job in the World

Current mood: nauseated

Currently on my IPOD: Waterfall : Griffin House

Good Evening,

How was your day? I spoke with a friend from NY this afternoon and she said it was hotter than H-E-double hockey sticks. It was hot here as well, with humidity higher than usual. So, I flipped on the AC and everything is beginning to feel right. My legs no longer seem as if they are their own shower.

I like my job. As a matter of fact, I liked it more than usual today. I had so much overtime that my boss let me have an extra day off. For the moment, my boss is my favorite person. I enjoyed my free time immensely, did some shopping early this morning and spent the rest of the day reading and writing.

What was I reading? Submissions...Very excited to be on board with Bust Down the Door and Eat All the Chickens as an associate editor. Screening submissions is a lot more fun than I thought it would be. Maybe I have found a niche' for myself.

What else did I read today? Absolute Friends by John Le Carre. I am about three chapters into it and as usual want to stop my life and finish it, but I guess that will have to wait.

You know what I think the most horrible job would be, I know, tangent, but having the title of Bertie Bott's Jelly Belly Bean Taster would have to be the worst.

WTF does this person do? Hey Guys...Ya know, this vomit bean doesn't taste nearly like the vomit I have here on the plate in front of me. Maybe add a little more acid, or last weeks gunky green beans. Or, ya know, this booger one is pretty flavorless, when I pick my boogers they tend to bleed so maybe throw in a little blood with the next batch. Rotten eggs, had enough of those today, lets just test out the grass and earthworms, but don't fry the earthworms, they just lose all flavor when fried.

Gross. Double gross.

Ewww..Alright, talking about this will certainly help curb my appetite for the rest of the evening. Maybe this is the trick to dieting. Eat a half dozen of the Every Flavor Beans and then purge. Should be quite easy to lose weight doing this.

Hold on..I feel a vurp coming on.

Good night and sweet dreams. Oh, and go out and see the new HP movie. I saw it earlier this week and it is fabulous.

Yours in Beans, Belly-Aches and Busting Down the Door

Okay, that was quite nasty.

I'll stick to beef jerky and pork rinds.
