Ups and downs

So a couple days ago I got the axe from Google. They finally got around to sending me a rejection form letter. I was expecting it though, so I wasn't really that surprised, but it still kinda got me down. But, about the same time, Ngoc told me that my Star Wars DVDs came. That was very exciting. Then today, I got an email welcoming me to the World of Warcraft beta. Which just compounded my excitement quite a bit. So I'm doing okay with not getting any further at Google. Ahh consumerism as a method of dealing with rejection. What a great concept.
