jobs

what i hate about jobs is not the actual applying, getting, working---no, it's much more than that. it's annoying that i have to

1. apply to more than one place and

2. the ones that i only sort of want to get, i get, and the ones i get maybe later if at all, are then pushed away because i already have the other one.

i dont like that i have to choose among jobs after applying many places. i would feel bad saying "yes" somewhere and then getting the better job later, and saying "yes" to them and then going to tell the other place "actually, just kidding" shrug. it's a difficult life. i wish i could just apply one place that i really want and they would give it to me. no questions asked.

done

I'm done. Finito. No more work, no more school. None.

Here's that Wilco article and radio review I promised.

Done. Yes.

Tunes and Fiction

I just finished revising my fiction piece, "Open Your Eyes." I actually like it quite a bit and will probably put the 21-page story up on this blog later.

It'll probably have to go up in short excerpts.

When I was finishing up some grammar, syntax, plot line problems, one of my roommates, Elizabeth Erwin, put on Derrick Webb's "She Must and Shall Go Free." I have some songs from the album, but not all of them. Man, it is beautiful. I really enjoyed listening to "Saint and Sinner."

Oh, and if you haven't already gotten Wilco's newest album, "Sky Blue Sky," get it. Probably one of the best album's ever and definitely tied with "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot."

I'll put up my radio story review and print piece tomorrow evening should you find yourself intrigued.

Disney World and Moving On

This weekend from Thursday, May 3 to Sunday, May 6 I was in Florida. One of my brothers, Sean, graduated from college. He went to Valparaiso in Indiana for a year to play soccer before transferring to Stetson University for the last three years to play on their soccer team. Anyway, it was really fun to go down there and hang out, see his school for the first and last time as well as go to Disney World and Daytona Beach. Most people after having the worst week of their college careers just take a really long nap, but I got to see Mickey Mouse and ride "A Small World." I'm ready to take on my last week as a junior and Sean's ready to take on the rest of his life. Weird.

I am drowning. Thank you Natalie Dee for creating cartoons that depict my life.
