I need to tap into the collective MeCha juju. →[More:]I've been jobless for a while now (partly because of laziness on my part, partly because of impossibly high standards, partly because of crippling self-doubt; you know).

I've found a job that I really, really want, though. I'm perfect for it, it's perfect for me.

But when it comes to luck, or things going the way they oughta, I'm kinda poorly lately.

So I'm asking you, bunnies, to muster whatever extra mojo, juju, vibes, juice, energy, spirit, luck, etc., you may have, and send a bit my way. I know it's a big favor, but I also know that y'all rock.

Please face California and clench 'em for a few seconds. That's all I ask.

Thank you.

xoxo

I don't have a cheerleader outfit, but I'm rooting for you.

Just make sure they know you're made out of coffee ice cream and it's a shoo-in!

I clenched anything that could be clenched. Seriously. I gotta go to bathroom now though.

Alright, I'm back. I'd also like to add that mudpuppie is freaking awesome and of course she'll get the job because they were meant to be.

Surplus mojo deployed as requested. Stack 'em, pack 'em, and rack 'em, pup.

All good thoughts heading to cali-forn-eye-eh. Good luck mup.

I just shot you a double power goat so you might get two jobs that you really want. Flip a coin, something commemorative, to decide which you keep.

My well of mojo is rather empty of late, but I will scrape the bucket and send you what I can.

Also, I gigantic fucking seagull has just roosted on the windowsill near my desk up here on the 8th floor. He's staring at me as if to say "What the fuck do you want?"

Your wish has been granted.

Good luck, mudpuppie! If you get it, I request you return some of my juju, though, as I need a job pretty badly, too. ;-)

I've already sent out more resumes than I care to count, and didn't get selected for two jobs I really wanted, and thought I would get. *sigh*

posted by teece 17 January | 15:40

Aw, sorry teece.

We can split the juju down the middle, if you want.

And the rest of y'all, again -- you rock.

posted by mudpuppie 17 January | 15:46

sending vibes of flightless birds your way, pup.

maybe you need to be consulting the bunny tarot as well?

posted by gaspode 17 January | 15:50

Go pups, go!
Go teece, go!

Gainful employment for all!

Gainful employment for all!

I'd prefer gainful unemployment at the moment, but you know me.

posted by jonmc 17 January | 16:04

Hell, if I can get a job, you can. Go get 'em!

I tried clenching something, lost my balance, careened down the stairs, flew through the door, bonked my head on the office chair, catapulted over the futon and ended up crumpled in the corner mouthing vowels.

I hope this helps. You rock, Mudpup. Whatever you have left over, please send to me at:

Nam yoho renge kyo. Nam yoho renge kyo.

That's the materialist buddhist chant, to get you the things of this plane that you want. I am chanting it for you, and after you get the job, chant it back at me, okay, because I have two interviews on Thursday.

LUCK!
