The theme of this year is me, and everyone else, being perpetually tired (of getting up, of politics, of required reading and thesi)...

last night (after my phone cut you off) talking with my brother on the ride home I had my eyes closed and would have been asleep if the car ride was 5 minutes longer.

But this morning I woke up a little bit while driving. I heard Queen's Your My Best Friend (I think that's the title... you know which one I mean) and sang along and thought of you because you introduced me to queen. And you're my bff. But, in a platonic way, not the implied romantic way of the song.

also. austin, a lack of it is a lack of a piece of my soul. - There's a guy who rides my bus sometimes who has a longhorn cap and my day is brighter after every time I see him.

Ah, thanks for thinking of me. I think of you as well and I was sorry that we couldn't talk last night. I know you are working, but where at?

In the registrar's office. It's a work study job. I am surprised at how much I actually enjoy it. It's not exciting (except when I come across transcripts from schools in Texas, both UT and A&M!) but it gives me time to think. And listen to music. It's also cool to think that I'm handling people's permanent records, while it's not an exciting way to effect people's lives, my doing things correctly does matter. Also, I know the alphabet better than I ever did before. It's odd though, suddenly being able to know people's last names without them ever telling it to me. If I know their first name and what area of study they're in, I can almost guarantee that I know who they are and how many coreses they took last term. I don't read anything, but I'm aware of what I put in their files. The only person whose file I've read is my own ( ... )

It's good that you enjoy your job, because work study jobs are usually pretty boring, you just sit there and do homework most of the time. But if you find something you enjoy and that matters to others, then you're good. Thats the way that I feel about my job (even though there are a lot of little annoyances about it). Hey, my mom called me last night to tell me that her and Maddison watched "Martha Speaks" yesterday and Maddison asked my mom to record it for her, so I guess she likes it.
