Passings
A Caucasian female was found dead in Washington Heights 5th floor apartment. Apparent cause, head explosion. Commonly known to locals as 'Cracker,' close friends just knew her as a sweet, if troubled, young woman. All proclaimed shock, dismay and great sadness at this unexpected turn of events. Friends and family hesitantly point towards the hours spent scanning jobs in the arts, emailing applications and the disappointment at receiving numerous rejection letters. Chronically unemployed, the deceased was known to send hundreds applications to as away as Beijing and New Delhi in the hopes of securing an interview. One friend had commented that the explosion came at a surprising time. "Last time we talked she had really turned a corner and accepted that perhaps a job in the arts wasn't for her. She really liked the busy atmosphere at the local Rite Aid and had decided to apply there as a cashier with the hope of making assistant manager. She was also excited about the discount on the cosmetics."

This is very awesome. You have a cute head, though, so I hope yours is still intact.
Good for you on the blogging. Now that I know about it, I plan to check it on a very regular basis.
I like having talented friends!
Well done -- I really enjoy the illustration. If you're thinking Rite Aid, I suggest you start thinking Duane Reade instead.
Really Duane Reade? do they have better cosmetic discounts? assistant manager prospects of aisle 5?
Aisle 5 might be pushing it, but I think you definitely stand a shot at aisle 9 -- maybe.
