QotD: My First Gig

What was your very first job?
Submitted by Laurel.

My very first job was a disguise to pick up a girl that I liked. It was a Hardee's. After she quit in the first few days of me working there, for some reason I kept working there myself. I think that it was because I could smoke there, and I couldn't at home, considering that I was 15. I think that I worked there for two whole months.

I forgot that this place was here. And I was all ready to start typing complete nonsense into LJ instead.

One great convulsive gulp

He closed the bedroom door. He turned, heart hammering, brains squeezing at his temples, and Annie was there, all right, the axe upraised, but only for a second.

A long yellow flame appeared. She drew in breath in one great convulsive gulp, re-starting her own heart, it seemed. Oh, what a variety of strange and poisonous flowers grew beside Annies version of that quaint old path! As dark came down on that second night, Miserys squealing went on as monotonously as ever — the pig sounded like an unlatched door with rusty hinges squealing in the wind — but Bossie No.

Even the stupidest swain could grasp the symbolism — the hero had been saved by God. ""Dont be smart with me!

The reason she had to bring him the bedpan so infrequently was not only because he was on a diet consisting entirely of liquids and gelatines (earlier, when he was in the cloud, she had fed him intravenously), but also because Novril had a tendency to cause constipation in patients taking it. Old enough and bright enough, maybe, to spill some kerosene around a cheap liquor bottle, then light a candle, and put the candle in the middle of the kerosene.

Lomo

I got a fisheye Lomo camera at work today. I have no idea where to even start with the thing. Does all of the film have to be developed through lomo?
