weekend

it's my weekend and i'm pleased to announce that i have nothing to do except whatever i want. that won't be all that much since i don't really have money, but i do have my toys to keep me entertained.

i came across my old livejournal last night. it had not been updated for like three years. pretty fun to read. heidi and i had just started dating and screwing all the time. i had most of the same problems with money, even though i had more of it, i hated my job, and i saw my friends a bit more than i do now.

now we're all paired up and doing our own things and shit. such is life.

i'm still job searching but not coming up with much. my buddy is supposed to talk with his work about getting me an interview. so far that looks like my best lead. another friend offered me a job with him, but it was more of the same so i passed. after all, it's something new that i want.

btw: that's helmsley. my cat. he is far cooler than you could ever dream of being.

now what?

i didn't get the job that i interviewed for yesterday so today i start from scratch. i don't have any leads at all and i may have to extend my time at where i am now. i don't want to, but they were cool enough to let me hang around until i can find something else.

i have to call a friend of mine today. he called the other day and left me a message saying that if i was still looking for a new job to call him today or tomorrow. don't have any idea of what it might be but what the hell.

so, i guess i DO have a lead after all. maybe i should think a little bit before i actually sit down to type. whatever...never said i was a good writer.

new things since my last post: god of war, and new albums by nick cave and ted leo.

day two. events do not occur in real time.

i got a copy of the jayhawks "rainy day music" from a co-worker today and it's really, really good. it'll be a welcome addition to the alt-country collection. also, i got a pinhead gunpowder record and it pretty much rules.

work asked me to stick around for another week but it's pending on how i do at my comcast interview and how soon they would want me to start.

umm...im doing laundry and drinking beer. soon after, i'll be going out for chinese food and it's gonna rule.

and that's that.

day one of many to come...

i tend to do shit like create blog or join random websites after i'm two or three beers into the night and tonight is no exception.

so, welcome to my newest blog and my first since i gave up myspace a few months ago.

alright, not a whole lot to write about tonight so i'll just ramble for a bit and call it a night.

i downloaded a shit-ton of music tonight. nothing essential, but what the hell. i've been on-and-off the computer since about 9am today job searching, paying bills, shopping, and of course; downloading new tunes.

for those interested, i got stuff from the donnas (thanks to guitar hero), and the hold steady (rad). seriously check out the hold steady if you have not already. great stuff.

i have a job interview on wednesday with the cable company. i have to take a test or something, not real sure. the starting pay is much better than what i get currently and i've been at this job now for about 8 months or so now.

i'm kinda torn about leaving my current job but that's only because i'm not on the clock right now. when i'm there, i'm in hell. i hate customers more than pretty much anything on this or any other planet. but when i get home i forget about how much i want to beat those fuckers with a bag full of bricks and forget about the whole day. only to repeat the same shit the next day.

point is: i need to get out and i'm doing my best to do just that. two weeks left and no job lined up.

fuck it. wish me luck.

...and with that i say goodnight...
