Wal-Mart can suck a black turd

I'd been patiently waiting to hear from them for a little over a month, but nothing. I even called them; "This is all new to us." I'll get a call from the main office if I'm chosen.
My sister put in an application on a Friday and gets an interview Thursday of the very next week. Looking for night shift over at the Dubuque store. As it turned out, the position was filled about four hours after they'd called to remind Sarah of her second interview.
So I figure Wal-Mart's a no-go. I'm told applications are only valid for 60 days and in a week or so mine'll be dead.

Yes, it's time to consider different venues. But it's also time to write. Hell, it's ALWAYS time to write. I just wish I could be better at staying on task with it. I put out three short stories and the 1st 20 pgs of Lunatic Lounge. Of these four, 2 have come back so far.
A little warning to those thinking about submitting to Soho Press: Don't bother putting sufficient postage to return the MS because all you get is a letter.
I mean, I might not've minded- Rejections are expected in this game. What really cheesed me about it was the money I blew on postage. I paid for enough postage that they could've included the MS with the rejection letter. If I'd known they were going to chuck the MS and just send me a letter, I would've saved myself some money and just enclosed a regular business envelope with a single stamp.
ANYway,
29-Cent Stamp came back from Happy with a scrap of paper offering subscriptions to their magazine and a quick scribble saying it wasn't for Happy.
I've yet to hear back on Kirby and Rosemary's Pie. Each of these stories were sent to magazines that focus on horror, so I'd like to think they stand a better chance.
There's a Glimmertrain Short Story Contest coming up and I've got to get a submission together. Maybe two. (You can submit as many stories as you like, but the entry fee's $15 per story)
