My Semi-Mille

I've just hit 500 rejections. I see that I hit 400 on September 13, 2009, which was...like 9 months ago? Making this maybe a rejection every other day since then...

At least this century, unlike the last one, included a sale or two.

In other news, I am in Berlin. It is great. Now I know what it would have been like to study abroad.
