My bitter-sweet Thursday

Bitter because I received a letter notifying me that Commerce Bank had no interest in hiring me (but bless their hearts, they'll keep my resume on file for future reference).

Sweet, because I had pumpkin pie last night. And according to my recollections, that is the first time I have had pumpkin pie. I've just never liked pumpkin. Even carving pumpkins, having to clean out the insides. You mean people actually eat that stuff? And how does it get from that bright orange to the dull brown of the pie filling? I suppose that's all irrelevant now, but now you know.
