Yay, happy Merry!
* I just got an email from my brother who said he knows somebody with four dead ThinkPads. Apparently dude thinks he can make one good one from them, and if he gets it working my bro's gonna send it to me when he's in Ottawa in two weeks!
* Also I'm waiting for Synnove and DoubleJesus to come get me...

I'm thinking about making a grilled cheese sammich.
I'm pretty sure I didn't get that job because no one's called me about it.
Like, every call centre in town is hiring. Ugh!
Possible DVD viewing with Synnove, Ankh, et. al. tomorrow.
Pixies cover band is back on apparently, w00t!
My roommate's kind of a jerk in that he rarely picks up after himself....

Ok, I feel a lot better today.
We got my fried laptop back from the repair shop along with an external USB case for the hard drive. I hooked it up and after some fiddling around with shifty data recovery software, a couple of different computers, and a phone call from my new favourite person Matthew, it seems as though the hard drive was...

yeah, that seems to be the general concesus. Plus, I can make all kinds of lame pick-up jokes such as "So, do you want to go study after class?" It'll be like a whole new dialect of pick up lines. 
My computer is dead. 20G+ of music, various short stories and articles I was working on, my resume, my address book which included all my work references, et. al. are all gone.
I'm still unemployed.
The editor of the magazine that sometimes lets me write for them is still a fucking bitch.
I still have no money and I'm getting sick of pasta and canned...

There is a special place in Hell for small-time magazine editors, let me tell you. It's the level just below the most spinless of rock journalists.

Ok, I'm done being a drama queen now.
I hate hate hate hate hate hate being unemployed. Sometimes in moments of weakness I contemplate doing the walk of shame at the mall or among the dozens of chain resturants on Prospect, but that feels like giving up to me. I'm too fucking smart for that, damn it. And they probably wouldn't hire me anyway because...

My friend Tanya is studying art in Holland. Here's 120+ photos of her and our friend Zach doing cool shit.
I want to yell at my roommate and tell him that he needs to learn how to flush a fucking toilet.
I think I'm going to clean out my closet today and get rid of a bunch of clothes I don't wear. G'bye, skinny...

I am a soup-aholic. You can buy chicken or veggie stock at the grocery store, so I just add a can of chickpeas or lentis, some garlic, spices, and voila! Cheap, filling, healthy soup.
We have an additional kitty. His name is Willy. I will post pics when he sits still long enough for me to take some. He and Mr. Cat don't like each...

* Unemployment continues to blow. All I do is watch the dispatches from NOLA on CNN all day and I feel really helpless because I'm so far away and have no money to donate to the Red Cross.

I like earl grey in morning, green tea in the afternoon, and then coffee at night.
I have a job interview tomorrow night at my local campus radio station. The job title is "volunteer coordinator," so I'd basically be in charge of recruiting and training new volunteers. I'd really rather have a job where I wrangle books and ideas instead of people, but I'm feeling pretty desparate. At least I'd be able to wear my own clothes. And they'd teach me...

"It's tough to verify from our vantage point here, but one of the officers said that some of the inmates at the Orleans Parish jail may have taken control of the prison. From what we are hearing, the prisoners have weapons. They have not left the jail. They can't get out. But we heard that they have control of weapons inside the jail."
if you want, I have an extra Against Me! Cd. not the new one, but their second one. it's very good. but the first one, I think, is still my favorite. it's called "Reinventing Axl Rose"

anyway, whatever, if he wants to hate me over something this dumb then he either never cared in the first place or he's just looking for something to hate me for.
At least it's a gesture in one direction or the other that I can deal with rather than wishy-washy bullshit.
