Which do you want to hear first?
So there's this awesome job that I interviewed for last week. It was the tech for on-campus events, including work with live sound and lighting. I was really hoping this would pan out because the whole live sound thing is something I have done and enjoyed doing. Well, I got the email from the interviewer today, and, though it took a while to get to the point, in the first line I could hear the "we had better applicants" tone. I'm...a little down about that right now...I'm sure I'll be better at some point. It does come with the territory of looking for a job.
I made myself laugh the other day when I put on my sunglasses. As I was nesting them on my face, I made a sucking noise that reminded me of an alien attaching itself to my face, either to drain my life force (Metroid) or to lay eggs in my stomach (Alien). Not the most pleasant thoughts, but the sound was funny.
I have digestive problems, so I take antacids. In case I forget them, I carry Tums in my pocket. Just before I came up to college, my family went to Target and got me some more Tums, in case I ran out. Well, I ran out. Luckily, I had that new container of Tums, so I refilled my pocket-sized one and went on my way. Today, I forgot the main antacids, so I had to take a few lot of Tums, which was fine because I carry them in my pocket. I shook one into my hand and looked at it (because I do that, that's why). It said:
TUMS
FREE
I was a mite bit confused, but I ate it anyway. A few minutes later, I had to take another one. Then again a few minutes after that. Either they really are "Tums free", or I just don't respond to them like I used to. *sigh*
Tomorrow I head back down to San Diego for a Dave Matthews Band concert. I'll be taking the train right after classes are over, but I need to take a bus to get to the station. Problem: I don't take buses on a regular basis. So today, I went down to the bus stop where I'm catching the first leg. Turns out it's right next to Ralph's, so in addition to finding the bus stop, I also found a better way to get to Ralph's!
Cool, but now I need exact change...or to figure out how to get a "TAP" card. Those sound useful. Other than the fact that no one tells you how to get one...
The song running through my head is "The Suffering" by Coheed and Cambria. The poppiest prog rock you will likely hear.
