I just read Judy Mcguire's column in NY Press I love her.
I'm supposed to be at a Ricksha show tonight at t he Casbah. But I'm skipping it to hang with Kel. We're going to Krakatoa so she can study and I can write some web copy for our new product.
I put an old Faithless CD on my ipod today.
What else... I applied for 12 jobs today, seven of which I would hate within a week, two that didn't look so bad, and two others that I might actually enjoy. One of them is an editing position at some local paper that I've never heard of. Meanwhile, lots of my readers replied saying things like "Could you write my web copy for free?".
Sure. You can operate on my arm for free. And you - you over there in the suit - you can be my lawyer for free. And you, Mr. store owner - will you send me some merch for free? geez.
We're off.
oh! and this is for you.

the problem with san diego is the cost of living. in addition to rediculous housing costs we have the highest gas prices in the NATION, among the highest power costs, the list goes on and on. it's brutal.

Have you ever worked retail and had an item that woudn't scan or didn't have a price tag or the sku wasn't in the computer? Have you ever had a customer who noticed it wasn't ringing up and said "MUST BE FREE!"? Of course you have because every jerk in the world thinks he or she is funny and wants to get something for free.
