The cable has been out
since Friday. The cable company is coming by tomorrow to try to fix it.
As a result, we have watched every movie we own a couple of times over.
I was cruising the chicago
reader help wanted ads. So I noticed that the god awful company I worked
for (when I was a project analyst) is hiring again. This time though, it's
for the job of the person who was the bane of my existence had. Yes,
the psycho obsessive chick who made my life hell, harrassed me constantly,
was rude and vindictive, and that I overheard making fun of me over something
really asinine...her job has been downsized. Yup, though I was the first
to basically get hassled until I wanted to quit and then they turned my
job into a part time/ no benefits position. (Actually, the receptionist
was the first to get that. She only worked part time and the owner fired
her, by his own admission, to give himself a higher salary. ) It gave me
a sense of vindication. It's good to see that bit of karmic justice.
We're going to New Orleans
in a couple of days. I'm in a rut. It's that pre-leaving thing. I really
don't feel like doing a whole hell of a lot.It's that whole sense of stasis
that comes from not having much to invest in my now, but I can't get started
on my future plans.
I've been working on
the screenplay. Maria is really developing. I had a vivid dream about the
kind of animation I would use for it. I'm thinking a sort of 3-d claymation
effect would be good.
I am so excited about
school I have already picked out what classes I want:
Art 101, a basic design
drawing course
Art 103 Drawing and
composition 1
Art 107 Graphic Design
Seminar
Art 132 Introduction
to Photography
Art 160 Into to Electronic
Publishing,
Photography should be fun,
though I'm going to make rob get over his camera shy tendencies, at least
for the duration of the class. I don't have enough pictures of him.
I talked to my Dad tonight.
Neither one of us had a lot to say. He was tired and I'm just sort of in
this state where the future and the past consume my thoughts. We're going
to hang out with my dad in Italy. Emily might go, too. That would be nice,
she is my half sister and I don't know her well enough.
My back hurts, Im gonna
go unwind...
