featherynscale: Schmendrick the magician from The Last Unicorn (Default)
I had a very instructive conversation with a woman from one of the head-hunting/placement firms I'm using to look for a job... she tells me that the reason I didn't get an offer from the last interview I went on with them was because I looked unprofessional. Reason for said unprofessional-ness was that I failed to take out my tongue-ring. This is exciting, because I don't have a tongue-ring to take out, and in fact, the only piercings I'm currently sporting are the ones in my earlobes, one apiece, in the socially upheld manner.

So I'm not sure what that's about. I do have a lisp, which frequently suggests a tongue-ring. But that's about as close as I come. The idea of someone popping a heavy-gauge needle through my tongue does not appeal to me much. And I don't know what I can do to dissuade people from thinking I'm wearing odd facial jewelry to interviews aside from, you know, not wearing any, which I'm already doing.

So that's fun.

Just saw a note which indicated that this year's Lollapalooza would feature Morrissey *and* the Flaming Lips. If I were the type of person who made the squeeing, I would squee.
