New job is great so far, although I'm still training, so it's hard to get much of a sense for anything. My brother's comment when I told him I was starting on Valentines' Day: "I can't believe you're so desperate for a man in your life that you're willing ot consider The Man." Bastard. It's pretty funny, though. This week I'm getting classroom training, which is like the career version of in-class driver's ed. Most of the other trainees are business students/recent grads, so this is just the same old shit for them, but I've been out of school for a few years now and my inner nerd has been without an outlet. Naturally, I'm having WAY too much fun: "Oh boy! OH BOY! Can I answer the NEXT question too?!" They seem like good people, so if I'm lucky, they won't beat me up at recess.

Livejournal has the coolest meme-thing right now that will generate haikus using random sentance fragments and words from your blog. I wish SG had one; my Livejournal account goes back a few years and hasn't been updated in a while, so it's not very interesting. Still,l had a ton of fun cranking this shitpile of bad haikus out of the generator:

but there are people
who envy and emulate
the man he was with.

at heart you question
authority and are still
trying to find it

suspect he may be
the archetypal morning <this one is awesome
from hell. i didn't know.

in retrospect i
should be given any credit
artistically

today i don't want
to have so much be wrong that
it's inconvenient

& my personal favorite:

Rob gets up. I'm still
too bitter. In other news
I'm feeling better.
