Now Taking Suggestions

[x_multipleman]

Okay, so, starting in a month or so I'm gonna have two jobs: delivering for Mr. Roth (my motto: "Crispy Fresh Hamentaschen In Thirty Minutes Or Less Or I Go All Verklempt, Talk Amongst Yourselves, I'll Give You A Topic") and some sort of insurance data entry thing (my motto: "Why Yes, I Am A Trained Monkey, Ask About Our Banana Special, Beware Of Flung Poo.")

Those two plus my savings from working the farm for Dad plus my pretty-darn-healthy financial aid package ought to be enough to pay for college without sacrificing my soul, my nads, and the first ten years of my adult life on the altar of student loans, but I'm gonna need some walking-around money too, and also the car appreciates a full gas tank.

So I'm thinking about grabbing a third job, but I'm not sure what. My stipulations are as follows:

- No clowns. I don't feel like taking the time to get a degree in clownology (or, before anybody mentions it, clowniatry; the ability to prescribe 50 ccs of seltzer water down the pants is not worth the extra tuition.)

- No telemarketing. I'm already part of an unpopular minority group, thanks, I don't want to try selling aluminum siding to people who'd rather be watching TV/eating dinner/having sex/all of the above. Besides, I'd walk around all the time looking over my shoulder for rabbits with switchblades and/or demon-infested answering machines, and that's no way to live.

Other than that I think I'm pretty open-minded, but I'm also pretty stumped. Any ideas?

How about this opening I saw: Line chef for a school for gifted youngsters? Dunno, seems like it would pay well though I hear the students are all completely insane.

I bet it's one of those places that puts 'gifted' on the sign to look prestigous, when really there's a bunch of troublemakers on campus.

So I'm given to understand. Even the staff seems to have a tenous hold on sanity. Except the current chef who is a model of mental health.

Which begs the question, what's she doing in the insane asylum?

Presumably making dinner. Which is four cheese lasagna tonight from scratch.

I meant, if she's the picture of mental health, what's she doing making dinner for the loony bin?

Also? Yum. Lasagna.

Well someone has to. The pizza guy won't deliver here there anymore.

And crusty italian garlic bread and lots of salad and tiramisu for dessert.

Double yum! Garlic bread!

...though I imagine someone isn't going to be too keen on kissing me tonight. Oh well. ;-)

Just get her to eat some too. It's not so bad when it's shared. Or, I hear they've invented these wonderful things called breath mints...

Pfah! Breath mints are for the weak!

Or for those who love their girlfriends.

So you're saying that wanting to not horrify your girlfriend with your mouth stench is weak? Dude. :)

Doug? I rather like garlic bread, if you recall.
