This week on Rarity Tonight · 12:30pm Mar 27th, 2020
We are up late again
And I just can't pretend
That I'm happy when things are so bad
The toilet papers gone
And they've closed my salon
And it seems like the whole world's gone mad
And I'd love to fall asleep
But depression runs so deep
It's another sleepless night for me.
Always dark until dawn
But I can't carry on.
And there's just no hope for m-
...Hang on, phone call.
Hello? Yes, this is Rarity....Yes, RarityEQM. Uh huh. Uh huh. Why yes, darling. ...huh? A job offer? For me?! REALLY?! Work from home?! HUH?! You don't say?! Yeah, I'd love to have a phone interview! Tomorrow?! Yes! That would be lovely!!
Sorry about that, where was I?
This world is so bright,
I sing through the night
I just can't wait for to-morrow
Everything is so great
and I can hardly wait
To find the end of all my sorrow!!
................so guess who got herself a new job? Assuming she passes this interview tomorrow. 
Ooof, but in the middle of a horrible pandemic. I mean, I guess the extra money is nice, so I can, you know, pay my rent for a while. Utter balderdash they aren't having a rent freeze when so many of us are claiming unemployment. I suppose I'm lucky to work for online companies. Staying inside if paramount at current, which means they get lots of business, which means they need lots of help, and thats good for me. Yet...
And yet I'm HORRIFIED this is too good to be true. While the opportunity came from a trusted and reliable source, I'm scared to death things will not pan out in my favor. I'm waiting for the other horse shoe to drop. Like, if I get my hopes up, they will come dreadfully crashing down. It's making me CRAZY. I'm so freaked out...But...steady on, Rarity. Calm thy nerves. We shall persevere. We'll just...maybe take some anti-anxiety medication while we do so. Hahahaha...haaaaa...
I finally finished a new story. One that popped into my head the other night during one of my dreadful bouts of insomnia. A little story about Twilight comforting Trixie after she has a nightmare about the afterlife. Generally, I try very (very) hard to steer clear of stories with religious overtones. This one, felt cute enough to circumvent that rule, as Twilight is convinced no matter what happens here and Trixie will see it through. I also excluded any mention specifically of specific places, such as 'heaven' or 'hell' and simply fed to the idea that thats what they were alluding to. No mention of the bible, or any specific religion at all. Simply...ponies comforting one and other. Something cute, I'd hoped. Not quite feature box material, though. A shame, But, not everything I write can be. Surely I didn't think something so derpy could make it in there. Mayhaps another story could be told. Maybe I can get bxk on a roll again. Who knows.
I thought it a very heartwarming and lovely story, Lady Rarity. Just the sort of story that surely most of us need these days. To be comforted and reassured that all will be well and that we have a friend beside us, come what may.
Isn't it amazing how a bit of good news can change ones mood? I wish you good luck with your interview, though I've a feeling that you're going to do just fine.
Hope you smash that interview and land that job!
Well, I don't know you a whole bunch, but I have a feeling that you're gonna rock that job interview and get the job in nothing flat!
Best wishes! :D
What the yay is up with the toilet paper situation?
