Black Bile

Today at the 'mart, the radio wasn't working. There was dead silence for most of the day, except for every 2-3 minutes, one of those annoying promos would play. And the one even said, "And now back to more music on the KMart radio channel . . ." or something like that, only to be followed by silence. Kind of funny, actually.

But anyway, only one song would play. ONE. Every 50-60 minutes. I know this because I worked for 5 hours today, and heard it 5 times. It's also the same song that I heard 3 times in one shift last weekend, and 2 times the next day--both times when the radio was working. It's a bad song, too. Now, if it was Backstreet Boys or Spice Girls, or something like that, would I be complaining? Hell to the no.

Moving on, I'm still on the job hunt. It's not really going well. At by not going well, I actually mean it's not going anywhere. At. All. Everyone's hiring PT seasonal help, and if I go somewhere else, it's simply SSDD. I'm trying, I really am, but I'm coming up short and quite frankly, it's resulted in an excessive amount of black bile. (For those not familiar with the "humours" popular during the Renaissance, Google is your friend.)

I'm scrambling for anything FT right now, as it will inevitably pay better than the 'mart. Any tips? Leads? I'm all pixels.
