So I came into work today to discover that on Saturday when we closed up three people got locked inside the Kent Cooper Room. Jeff Ray found them banging on the glass doors when he came downstairs to close up the building. I have absolutely no idea how this happened. As James, Hilary, and Lyndsey can attest, I was kicking stragglers out left and ( Read more... )

Mixing high and low culture is my favorite. For example, going to the opera and then immediately afterwards going to The Vid and drinking three or four pitchers of PBR and walking home in one of Claire's high heels and one of Kyle's sneakers. Preston gave me a wedgie so I had to hit him in the balls with my shoe. Normally I'd consider the balls ( Read more... )

You know it's funny that the only library that wants to interview me is in the only city that I really had no real desire to move to. Anyway, my face-to-face interview with the New York Public Library is on the 21st. The building where I'll be interviewing is one block away from the Empire State Building ( Read more... )

Another Saturday night, another near-fistfight with Caitlin Owens. I think we were fighting about who started the fight last time. Even though I have three belligerent voicemails on my phone, I had the last laugh. Hey Caitlin, are you looking forward to craft night ( Read more... )

So I just got done reading One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest for class, and let me just say that I fucking hated it. It was racist, sexist, arrogant, and worst of all, preachy. The thing that bugs me the most about hippies is that they think they have a monopoly on how to view the world. I didn't much care for the Christ symbolism, either. If ( Read more... )

Well, after only 15 minutes or so of actual phone interviewing I have an in-person interview in New York City, time and date to be determined. I think I will try to make it for the week of April 12 or 19 so I can get it done before finals. Craaaaaaazy. Deborah, does your extremely old offer of a couch to crash on still hold up by any chance ( Read more... )

And I come crawling back to livejournal ( Read more... )

We have triumphantly returned to Bloomington after much rocking and rolling. Of Montreal was my favorite band of the three, I think. The Eagles of Death Metal were also awesome, but the crowd was definitely there to see The Strokes and wasn't feeling them very much. The Strokes were okay, but they just sounded like their CD turned up really loud ( Read more... )

So Red Bull bought the New York MetroStars (the professional soccer team, for all you REAL Americans who hate soccer) and renamed the team. They will now be known as Red Bull New York. What the fucking fuck. I can't wait until I am rooting for the Indianapolis Microsofts or the Starbucks Chiefs. Go fuck yourself, Red Bull. Granted, the ( Read more... )

EXTRA EXTRA

I have a phone interview with the New York Public Library on the 28th of this month. Today is the craziest day of all time.
