Weekend WOOHOO! 11/13-14

<p>Not fun: Filling out the Clinic online application, where I had to re-type basically my whole darn resume, authorize all kinds of background & credit checks (wtf? It's a creative job!!!), and then take an hour long test consisting of questions like this:</p>
<p><a class="H-lightbox-open" href="http://www.kickrunners.com/content/type/61/id/62711/width/1000/height/800/flags/" target="_blank"><img alt="Picture 2.png" class="lightbox-enabled" data-id="14912" data-type="61" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/content/type/61/id/14912/width/685/height/190" style="; width: 685px; height: 190px"></a></p>
<p><a class="H-lightbox-open" href="http://www.kickrunners.com/content/type/61/id/62713/width/1000/height/800/flags/" target="_blank"><img alt="Picture 3.png" class="lightbox-enabled" data-id="14913" data-type="61" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/content/type/61/id/14913/width/141/height/153" style="; width: 141px; height: 153px"></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>IT'S A FREAKING CREATIVE JOB!!!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There was also a section where there was a window on the left side of the screen with math/logic problems, which you had @ 45 sec to answer, and at the same time you're supposed to read & respond to emails which pop up in another window on the right, which are locked if you don't read them within 15 seconds. Some are just stupid info, but every so often one would require a response, but the email containing the info to answer was locked  by the time the question came up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>ACK.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hopefully I passed. Jeez.</p>

<p>Fun:  I started the process of making <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/free-range-fruitcake-recipe/index.html" target="_blank">Alton Brown's Free-Range Fruitcake</a>. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>My mom, OTOH, had threatened me with bodily harm if I bring fruitcake into her house.   <span><img alt="lol.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/lol.gif"> </span></p>

1) After reading the recipe, I wonder if I could make a version of that that I could eat. Hmmm.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2) In college I sewed costumes for the Theater Dept Costume Shop. Every year for Christmas, the Costume Designer would give each of us a loaf of home made fruitcake. The first year I was skeptical. <img alt="disgust.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/disgust.gif">  Because the only fruitcake I knew was the yucky candied fruit stuff that sat around for<em>ever.</em> This stuff though.... DEEEEElicious!!! Margaret would never share her recipe, but I know it involved sitting in rum for 3 or 4 months.</p>
