So here's a cruelly ironic story. Last semester, Holly convinced me that we should purchase tickets to a Billy Joel / Elton John concert with some extra money that we had. She was doing a lot of work in school at the time and figured that it would act as some sort of awesome treat for her for finishing all of her term papers and whatnot. It was ( Read more... )

Here's some songs that are really doing it for me right now:

• "Watching the Planets" by the Flaming Lips


• "Bury My Body" by the Animals


• "Aeroplane" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers


• "Heart Cooks Brain" by Modest Mouse

It's difficult to remember what things I wrote earlier today even.

If'n I didn't mention it earlier, I recently applied for an internship with the Western Missouri slash Kansas chapter of the ACLU. They require an applicant to be able to work at least 8 unpaid hours each week, and what with my working at the bank that may not be possible save for ( Read more... )

In fact, I have to meet with the same guy who interviewed me the first time. I wonder how that will go. Will it be antagonistic, ( Read more... )

It has been too long since I've updated, which makes absolutely no sense considering the fact that I've been unemployed for over a month. Go figure. I guess I just felt like there wasn't much to say, which is strange because I really could probably make a lot of thoughts out of very little. I've already written a whole dang-gum paragraph just ( Read more... )

I got a call from one of the jobs I interviewed for wanting to do a phone interview, which I completed yesterday. He scheduled me for a face-to-face interview on Tuesday. The job is for a bank teller position at U.S. Bank. Not my ideal job, but one that I wouldn't mind for a while. After hanging up the phone with that guy, I got another call from a ( Read more... )
