Oh, son of a bitch.

I can't get the moderation job without DSL

[livejournal.com profile] fimbrethil offers to help pay for the DSL

[livejournal.com profile] kshandra orders the DSL last night

Today, I get a note that all the positions have been filled.

I read that message and came as close as I have in years to actually snapping. Seriously, I could feel my self-control just slipping away, and the happy lands of insanity just calling to me. I probably stared at that email for a good five minutes, just unable to move for fear that I would put my fist through the damn screen.

Frustrated is not an adequate word to describe how I feel right now. To be honest; I'm not feeling much of anything.

I have a feeling I might know what is happening. I have a suggestion, but you may not like it. But the suggestion worked for me...I will share it with you if you like.

That sucks straws through a toad, and I'm deeply sorry to hear of it. Good luck, sir.

Gleh. Just.. gleh. Dude, that sucks harder than Linda Lovelace on crystal meth.

My offer is still good. I read your later post and hope a moderator drops out so you can fill the position (fingers crossed).

*hugs*
I tried, baby...
And whoever said there may be someone who drops out is right. It tends to be a high turnover job. I'll keep my ears open.

*sigh* I do hope that things work out for you. To get so close and then poof.

*crossing fingers*
