Birthdays and Torchwood

Cherish here!

Yesterday was my birthday everybody! I think it was possibly the most lame age there is. At sixteen you get your license and at eighteen you're legal, but seventeen? I can see rated R movies without an adult. How fun. It's just a poorly placed age and rated R movies are the consolation prize. Nonetheless I intend to go see one soon. Because I can, and that's what teenagers are supposed to do, right?
Anyway, I have to be honest, it was a pretty terrible day. I woke up and promptly missed the bus. So I had to drive to school and couldn't participate in the blood drive I was so excited for. I've been sick for most of the past week and I still was not 100% but that's life. The biggest positive was going out to lunch with my dear old friend, Halden. Unfortunately we went to a chinese restaurant and that left me sick for the rest of the night. Is that the worst of it? I wish.
In my math class I got a call from a place I had applied for a job and had a really positive response from the regional director, who promised me an interview. I was so excited! I was getting a call for a job on my birthday! What a present! Turns out it was a, "Sorry, we've changed our minds, no position open." sort of call. On my birthday. And before you think, how could they have known? My birth date was on the paperwork. Which they probably didn't even look at.
So yes. I had a birthday yesterday and it was a splendid fail, bursting into flames like a dying phoenix. Oh well. We live and we learn. But I have happy (well happy if you're me.) things to say too!
I don't know if anyone who reads this (come to think of it, I don't know if anyone reads this anyway) is a fan of Doctor Who. I am though! And I've worked my way through nearly two seasons over the past week and there was a character I was sad to see go; Captain Jack Harkness. Especially with so sad an end. Relax though, readers! There is hope! And really I'm way behind, but I just found the show Torchwood. And secretly I'm liking it so far. We'll see. I'll keep you updated.
Anyway! Have a good rest of the week! I'll try to also.
Cherish out!
