hello itr!

i have the whole day AND the whole weekend off! thank god! because my job gets more boring each day!

the upside is that i'm reading heaps more than normal - i get through 1 or 2 books during a work week.

and for anyone who cares: i went to a special screening of 'ghost world' and got daniel clowes' signature.

my job is almost like having the day off today... my boss's ceiling has apparently fallen in (this goes back to her trying to get a leak fixed for the past several months) and she has an appointment out of the office, so she's not coming in. this means i have essentially nothing to do but sit back and listen to the rehearsal monitor.

I really wish I had today off. There's a lot of things going home and pampering myself at home would be ideal. But I have an increasingly intense deadline next week. My lack of motivation and focus is increasing the fear by the moment.

i am really bored. the low levelness of this job is starting to catch up with me. this is not good. i want to stay here, and need to stick it out in hopes of getting something better (that is, if i don't get laid off during this budget cutting season), but argh! i just want to use my skills to do awesome work! why is that so hard?!?!

i had to do some mom placation and now she's coming to visit in a few weeks

hopefully her teats will not mystericate

ooooh.

Wow you guys are all having weird days. Or is my perspective all skewed now?

Paper finished, nearly had a breakdown figuring out how to submit all the documents digitally, am now at computer, nearly inert. I should eat, but I don't know what to eat and last time I looked at the kitchen it was SCARY.

Tonight's class content is writing our own Heath Care Power of Attorney/end of life care stuff. Which seems so appropriate, since this paper nearly killed me. Can't wait for 9:20 tonight, so I can be bored with the rest of you!

i just ordered a bunch of knee high socks and am now happy.

The Mavericks season opener is tonight. But 5 o'clock is so far away. :(

Before then I have two difficult meetings and a hella lot of work to do. suxor.

omg my operacrush sounds SO FREAKING GOOD on monitor right now!! <3 <3

I have just resigned my job, they offered me the opportunity to take it with me to wherever I end up, which is nice but I am so glad to be leaving this crazy industry.

Now for beers and dancing to monumental, loud, 11-piece folk band.

wow, that was nice of them.

congrats, ed!!

when i quit my job before grad school, i got talked into coming in on fridays, which i realized after 1 week was insane. then i had to quit again. quitting is hard.

this just turned my day around: http://tinyurl.com/65w2n9

I want an operacrush now.

it would be better if he was obtainable.

Taken, Jerk, Gay, or all of the above?

i believe he is married (to a lady). i would like to think he is v v nice becuase of the time i heard him tell the cashier in the cafeteria "thank you" in his sexy baritone voice, but you know, i could be making up a personality based on looks and one "thank you."

^^^ best kinds of unrequitable crushes; you get to make them into YOUR fantasy person!

omg sighting in the cafeteria! le sighhhhhhhhhhhhh

Awwwwwww.

lusting after mephistopheles in the lunchroom.

HAHAHAHAHAHA I KNOW WHO YR OPERA CRUSH IS NOW

also I've sung with him at the BSO! He is super nice.

OMG JEALOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

(i knew i was giving it away when i posted that -- note: i posted pic on would smash)

also dan, i think you will appreciate this: http://tinyurl.com/65w2n9

SP: Well, you know Jeremy, we’re overtaxed. And Beethoven says, well, goshdarnit, just try and govern that fugue subject. Cause he knows that government is really the problem, and the scariest two words in the English language are “Schenkerian Analysis.”

lolololol

I wish I knew what that meant.

Heading off to class soon. Not happy about it. I get to come home and collapse afterward, though, so at least there's THAT.

Go have awesome evenings, ITR.

THESE FLATS DON'T RUN.

I looked at that page for two seconds before realizing that my brain is no longer able to take in information. It's a sad night, folks.

oh man i am reading it for like the 5th time and it's STILL killing me!!

Honestly, I saw, like, three unfamiliar words and backed out of it. Way too much like trying to puzzle out some of the stuff in my nursing textbooks. (And at least I get some lecture to try to sort some of that out...)

Okay, I'm happy now; I saw the Zogby numbers for the day. Bedtime for exhausted student nurses.

Apparently my body no longer believes it can sleep for more than 4 hours at a time.

Mavericks lost last night. I had been looking forwards to the season starting since the last one ended. Hopefully the next game will turn out better. :(

it's a SIGN

I'll take solace in that.

apparently my body now believes it must sleep through every alarm i set and make me late for work. awesome.

Susan, we need to trade bodies for a few days. Mine keeps WAKING UP.

I decided last night that Nate Silver is my new random unattainable crush. His website rocks and has been keeping me sane, plus I like the way he talks about crosstabs. HOTT.

I think TZA the one who's sleepy although I can sympathize with her.

is there a good online to find free full literature texts? G's next paper is on some classic plays and I figure there must be someplace to read thm.

wow, my sentence coherence sucks today.

there are a lot of classic plays online... i can't remember site names, but they come up pretty easily with a google.

tehresa, i thought of you: devo is dressed like DEVO today

BRILLIANT!

i totally want to come work there.

A. has some engaged co-workers who are dressed as Jack and Meg White today. They look pretty good!
