I'm not sure I want to move back to New York.

dilemma

For what reasons, if I may ask? That sounds like a good opportunity. You could always apply and then decide from whatever outcome arises.

To some people NYC is the greatest place on earth, and I do agree there are many awesome things about it, but from my perspective having moved away from there less than a year ago the two most noteworthy attributes are:

it's super expensive

the grocery stores suck


And yeah, I'm probably going to fly out to interview and see how things go, I just don't know what I'll do if I get an offer.

Well I was there for a grand total of 4 days, so I don't know much about NY, but that makes sense.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, because it truly is ridiculous and somewhat laughable, but oh, so frustrating.

Hang in there.

Some parents are just like that.

Don't be like me and try for 5 years to work harder, do everything they tell you and try to do everything you can to make them proud of you.

Because no matter what I did my parents still treated me like I was some sort of bum.  (Even when I was working 70 hours 6 days a week and I never in my life drank, did drugs, had sex got into any kind of trouble or have any kind of fun with anyone at all)

Only recently at the age of 26 did I realize that I can't make these people happy.  I can't.  They are ALWAYS going to be jerks and treat me like shit.

Everyone should honor their parents and all that stuff but never get into the mindset that if they give you crap somehow it's totally your problem and that you are a horrible person.

Tuesday was rad. $190 worth of booze, I hit a guy for trying to do something that nobody ever has an excuse to do, and now a girl wants me.

Downside: the girl introduces herself as The Cooch and is as deep emotionally as a can of wet cat food. And the only reason I got away with punching Dickbag McDickface is because he was so drunk that even I knocked him on his ass with one hit. And he doesn't remember shit, either, so that's why I am still alive.

Guys, I am pretty happy. One of my self portraits won a comp on our local Flickr group and is being printed large and featured on the wall of the photography shop in town! Hooray!
Sadly I will not be able to see it because I will be in Canada.

If you want sex dreams about Dana Delany, watch Live Nude Girls.

Incidentally, for those who haven't heard of that movie, it's not even remotely as scandalous as the title makes it sound. There's much more skin in Exit to Eden, but there are a couple of noteworthy fantasy sequences in Live Nude Girls.

I have a job interview for Staples tomorrow. I'm pretty nervous, but super excited. I've applied to about 8 other places and been turned out by each one although I said I'd work weekends and holidays and said I could work any time from opening to closing for each place.

And I just found out I get to see The Dandy Warhols in September, so that adds to the excitedness.

You should definitely give it your best shot. That sort of incompetence deserves strict retribution, although maybe you should try weeing in his tea first, as a trial run of sorts...

In other news, Blog Thread, I am gradually coming to terms with the fact that my encroaching health problems (my spine is basically fucked) are interfering with my ability to DJ. This is making me think about long term, sensible things that I really don't want to think about, and now I am most upset as a result. Also, I am concerned that having a walking stick, or any other such mobilty aid, will rather drastically interfere with my ability to pull. This is definitely not good.

No, seriously, as long as you aren't the person in the room most bothered by it, it will not hinder you that way.  The same rules apply: Be confident, be good, and if they don't want it?  Fuck 'em, it's their loss.

BEAR THLOG DREAD,

My friends and I finally made the switch from Vampire: The Masquerade to Vampire: The Requiem. My character's name is Ryuzaki!

Speaking of people named Ryuzaki, I just got confirmation from Amazon.com that my order for the 5th volume of Death Note shipped today! I ordered it as a gift for a buddy of mine, he and I have been watching the whole series and basically I got addicted to it from the first episode onward. We've also been watching Bleach, and it's also awesome, but not as brilliant as Death Note. I'm going to have to start collecting the ones that are already out and get the rest as they come, because hot damn, it's an amazing show.

I'm still not having any luck selling the SG, because, well, nobody here in town wants to buy a guitar, and the extent of my inter-nets marketing has been a single post in the Guitar Topic (music forum). I should talk to my buddy Mike down in California about selling it and paying the difference for an American-made Fender Jaguar, because UNF those are hot.

Dearest Jewel of the Blogosphere,

I have to work overtime at the library today (I was informed about this yesterday).  Extra money is always good but it's pretty slow going here.  So far I have had to look up zip codes and help people with simple computer problems.

I will have to read forum posts to pass the time.

Some nutcase came in yesterday looking for academic journals.  I showed him what we had through NOVEL and Ebsco Masterfile but he thought we have access to all academic journals and could send them to his house though some sort of mystical interlibrary loan.  It turns out that the college library pretty much kicked him out and foisted him upon us.  When I tried to get him to tell me exactly what journal articles he wanted he told me he wasn't sure.

Warmest Regards,

Caleb

My girlfriend comes back into town tonight after a month in Belize.  We've been baiting each other via email basically ever since she left.  I feel kind of sorry for the people who live in my house, they're probably not going to sleep tonight any more than we are.

Edit: looks like it'll be her house that bears the brunt, parents and all.  This might be difficult.

Walking sticks do not inhibit these sorts of things! just ask this man:


Log Bread:

I am pretty excited for this job to end. I've been working every day for an unpredictable number of hours (usually like 12 but sometimes we get out at 10 in the morning and I am surprised). This is kind of really not good for my overall health or social life or sanity. I haven't had a paycheck in ages, and so I don't ever have money to eat lunch. I don't have time to eat in the morning because well I'm waking up at 3:30.

I think the moral of this story is it is a good thing tuesday is my last day because it would be the death of me otherwise
