Neverending Workday…
Today went on and on FOREVER. First we had to install a bunch of plants, then we had to go and water all the regular ones… oy, 9.5 hours of hauling and pruning is enough plants for one day! I came home and crashed and am lame.
I wanted to go see the Foals tonight at the Middle East… I’m really seriously digging them. But, I’m lame. Next week is Cut Copy and the Mobius Band at the Paradise, and I will not lame out on that one!!! The following day British Sea Power is at the Paradise, but I’m getting old. I think my days of being a slave to mopey Brit rock are coming to an end. I’m more of just an indentured servant at this point. Oh, except CC are Australian and the MB are from Western Mass… close enough.
My newish job is awesome, but man is it making me tired! Today I went up and down like a million flights of stairs 21st floor to the 25th and back down again and back up again and then down and up some more, sometimes carrying a big tree that we couldn’t figure out what to do with because we had ended up with it by accident. I get home from work and sleep and read a book or play Boggle with the innernets or something… basically, all these entries are totally boring and my life is headed in that direction as well.
Let’s see… something interesting…
I caught a snippet of conversation on the bus today: this woman in maybe her early 20s was talking about some ailment she had. “so I went to the doctor and he said I was 6 months pregnant!” Like… 6 months? How could you not know you were pregnant for that long?
Another snippet I overheard was when I was near this lawn full of pre-school kids. One teacher was talking to a little boy:
Olivia really likes you, doesn’t she? She’s your friend, right? And why does she like you? Is it because you’re Japanese? … or is it because you’re really cool?
I’m sure Olivia was really just using that kid for his Japanese-ness.
So, I typed “something interesting” into Google image search and here are some of the “interesting” pictures I came up with:
OK, I’ll admit that llama butts are pretty interesting.
Wow. Fascinating.
So far, I’m not terribly riveted.
