What are your sorries all about?

[travspence]

I'm sorry I don't have anything to blog about. I really want to blog. Everyone else is doing it and I want to jump on that bandwagon but I just don't have anything blogworthy right now

Hmm. Maybe if I had a massage...

I bet you don't need a haircut as badly as I do.

Is that a quotation in the title? Or is it a question? I am currently sorry that I don't have a job (as of four hours ago), that J is not feeling too good, and that I foolishly drank a cup of strong coffee half an hour ago and that therefore this is going to be another night of broken sleep.

But none of that's particularly unusual and none of it, I hope, is permanent. I am Pollyanna. I'm sorry, though, that you had whatever enigmatic bad experience you're referring to. And that your keyboard squeaks. In the job I don't have any more, my mouse squeaked (yeah, I know mice ought to squeak) and that was pretty irritating.

It's a line from the song "Apocalypso" by Mew. foomanchoo got me hooked. :-(

I'm sorry you lost your job. Was this something you knew was coming or did it happen suddenly?

[kicking_k]

Oh, I accepted the job knowing it was temporary - it was a five-month contract, filling in for a permanent employee. There are no hard feelings and I'm pretty sure they were sorry to see me go (I got gifts. Thoughtfully chosen ones).

But I am a bit sad, because I hadn't expected to love the job. I thought it was too corporate and I'd go crazy. While I still don't think I'm a born corporate employee, I really liked the work and the people. And also, not unimportantly, I don't have another job lined up.

I've had that happen, when you want to blog about something but can't find the words, then it comes out spur of the moment in real life and it makes you sound really stupid or insensitive or kooky.

[travspence]

Bingo. That's exactly what happened in this case.

3. I can't stop listening to And the Glass Handed Kites. With songs like "Saviours of Jazz Ballet" and "An Envoy to the Open Fields," why should I?

Bwahaha! Sucker. I've moved on to Frengers but "Apocalypso" calls me so. NO! "Am I Wry? No." is a good song too.
