Resolve All the Cliffhangers Please

jenny_wildcatPremiere Week continues, this time with CSI. Which, last season's cliffhanger was just mean. Four months of wondering if Sara lives or dies is almost as bad as ten years of debating whether Harry Potter lives or dies at the end of book 7. While I despise and detest the Grissom/Sara ship (it's one thing when the fans come up with these batcrap-insane pairings, but it's something completely else when they actually become canon - yes, I said "batcrap." Deal with it.), I never said anything about offing Sara. If she does die, it'll kinda, sorta suck. Plus, all this *inviso-finger quotes* "GSR" (...the hell--? o_O) angst keeps the story away from the handsomeness that is Nick Stokes, which I do NOT appreciate. At least Yahoo had a picture of Marg Helgenberger (Catherine Willows) on it's big front-page promo.
[Slight off-topic rant, but this has got me going, especially with some of the ships that I've encountered in various fandoms that just irritate me. Y'know, just because two carbon-based lifeforms make eye contact over the course of a season doesn't necessarily mean that they're hopping at the chance to get into each other's beds. Some of this "OTP" stuff has gotten out of hand. Not saying it's bad or wrong, necessarily (whatever melts your butter, I suppose), but please think about which characters you're shipping. Some element of plausibility would be nice. Why can't two characters just be really close friends (or really hated enemies - goes back to plausibility) and that's it? Now that I've made more than a few people mad, let's move forward.]
But, in the spirit of "When it Rains, It Pours," remember how I'm slightly unemployed as of tomorrow? Well, on Sunday, I got an e-mail from a real estate company looking for an assistant and I set up the interview for 6:00 tonight (hopefully it won't take two hours so I can get home in time for CSI, but I digress). Then yesterday, another real estate company called and asked if they could meet with me today at 4:30 (that was the only time they could do it). Soooo, right after work, I'm off to one interview and then I'll be on the road for another one and then it's home. Plus, I went to this temp agency yesterday and got signed up on their system and they called this morning with a temp position for today and tomorrow, but I had to turn it down because I'm still working this job until Friday (heh... forgot to mention that minor detail... my bad...)
It's like that song "Lucky Man," by Montgomery Gentry. You curse the rain and then complain when the sun's too hot. A few days ago, I had no idea what the heck I was doing, but now I have the problem of having too many offers and I don't know which one is the one for me. Oh well, that's how life goes. At least I'm getting offers (and "No, but thank you anyway" is always viable and professional option).
Anyway, job hunting and then CSI tonight. Good times. ^_^
(before anyone tries to sue me over my subject line, I am not affiliated with The Brothers Chaps or HomestarRunner.com. It was a fitting for this post, that's all. Yes, I have the same kind of condition that KSL Radio has when it comes to pissing people off - it's called Backbone Impaired. I'll explain that little rub some other time. Ooh, keepin' you interested, aren't I? Okay... mebbe not...)
