Thank you for participating!

Every time I hear about that job you had I feel like I've just gotten a peek at what heaven on earth must look like :P

Great point about post titles. There's this one blog I read that always has the absolute BEST post titles ever. They're hilarious. I don't think I could ever come up with inventive post titles like that, so I've always kept to the basics. It's nice to know that is best for SEO, but I'm afraid I'd be doing it boring style even if SEO didn't matter.

The right sort of person would have the reaction that I did, "Wow, I'm so lucky!"

If you are a big reader anyway, a bookstore, or a library is a perfect place to work.

That has to be the best job (and the best boss ever ever EVER). I worked in a chain bookstore for a while and nothing like that ever happened because each individual store didn't have control over what stock they were sent.

What I wouldn't give for a job where I HAD to read ARCS....

I can't believe we've never met before. How do you do? I feel ya on never feeling like you can catch up. I've been around since 09 too and I feel the same way.
