Job Hunt Update: Part V

i know it's unorthodox for me to update twice in one day, but i have good news!

the lady called me back from the Bead Shop and asked if i had biked out to Metairie yet. i admitted that i hadn't yet, and she told me that she really wanted me to check it out and see if it was...

I do indeed have passes/tickets to Wheel of Fortune; we'll have to get in touch when I am in town.

I am currently reading Suicide Casanovas by Arthur Nersesian and am (still) listening to The Mars Volta... I have yet to get tired of their new cd and highly reccomend it to everyone.

Nice puppies and good luck with the job... love ARRR!!!
ondyne:

Cute pups!

c) here are some dog pictures i took...

I'm listening to Frou Frou.

I usually alternate Frou Frou wit Portishead and Beethoven.

listening to Leonarard Cohen, sucking on a cigarette, and waiting for coffee to brew... sound familiar? heh. you have to have your routines, i suppose.

i didn't really do anything that i meant to yesterday. oops. but i did get to go out to a nice dinner, thanks to Rhys winning some money on internet poker yesterday.

i have to go to the Quarter today....

...so can you put your lipring back in? smile

awesome underarms, yes AWESOME!!

I dunno what I dreamt about last night. I think I'm always, always travelling nowadays in them. Not travelling like simply 3 miles from one's home, or simply in strange locales, but in strange locales with the specific understanding that I am on a vacation. And some of the school dreams. Get used to them. I mean, I dunno how your subconscious will react to years of worrying about school deadlines, but mine has reacted by continual dreams of being in school, college, or some mix of the two... and I don't even friggin remember anything about those years anymore!!

No Osbourne family members for a couple of days (I had Ozzy [Fri-Sat], then Jack [Sat-Sun] over the weekend). I would welcome a Kelly-make-out dream. I don't get that kinda ac-shon in my dreams, though.
xevilxashleyx:
I have weird dreams, lots, too. I hardly ever know what the mean, but I can always remember them like they really happened. confused

Best of luck with the job stuff. I know it's all bullshit and incredibly stressing. kiss

Just Chris...cause Rem is either moving out in the fall or sooner depending on the drama. Plus i can't really stand Rem and his angry outbursts of stupidity. He has after all broken two doors, a radio and a computer.
dirrrty:
You are far too kind.. Thank you so much for the comments. It helps a lot with my self-esteem.

Mind if I add you as a pal? kiss

disclaimer: i'm afraid this is going to be another long one, folks. if you don't feel like reading through it all, recommend a book for me. i still haven't used the library card i got last month, not even once! i'm so bad. but i could use some new brain food.

last night i actually got out of the house for... *gasp* ... a social...

I am proud of you. Yet another thing to prove that you are better than them. And yeah laughing at rich people in their underwear does tend to warm the cockles of the heart.

Oh and you should read anything by Neil Gaiman particularly American Gods and Good Omens. I also recommend My Ishmael and other books by Daniel Quinn.
yuriel:
im being lazy tonight doll

but you really are the best. and much much better than them haha.

Job Hunt Bullshit: Part IV

so this is what i ended up wearing to the job interview. except i didn't wear flip-flops. no. i wore real shoes. because flip-flops (along with shorts) should not be worn in public, unless you're just running to the store or on vacation or at the pool. sorry. they just shouldn't. i think it's my mother's voice in my head,...

Hahahaha. That's hilarious. I love when this happens. biggrin I'll admire someone for a while, and vice versa, and after a year or whatever one of us finally says something and it's all, "Why haven't we been friends for always?!?"

Those hot and humid summers I do not miss ... for sure cher smile
I went to the airport in Oakland to pick some one up last night and walking out of the terminal they said; "damn its cold out here". Hoodie nights are common in Oakland all year round. Luck , and hoping for you too.
gosifer:
A responce to this section of the journal...

"it's not specifically hoodies that i long for. it's that day when you finally can wear long sleeves or jackets for the first time since March. it's a very exciting day. when you wake up and the air just feels different. things smell different. i could write a book about the wonder of this day. last year i documented it:"

Are you sure it wasn't December? Sometime it seems that these Louisiana summers last the whole year. I ask you God, can we please have seasons?

Current listening:

Pit Er Pat- Shakey
i saw this band last night in lafayette, they
were pretty damned good. I have never
seen a drummer that can play that good
while singing.

Birthday Party - Mutiny in Heaven
You like Nick Cave, need I say more.

Wow! You used the word twat in a sentence .. very good. What school was that? I lived in the Nawlins area for 30 years.
oa55:
all you can do is keep trying girl, something will pop up for you. unfortunately, the world is full of self-righteous pricks (and twats... wink ) that think anyone different from themselves is obviously a lesser being. don't worry though, they'll all be in depends one day and we'll rule the world... biggrin
