world view
I’ve been moody has hell lately. In fact, I may be heading into a repression of sorts. I’ve been pushing people way and viewing them all as problems. I have not had any inspiration or optimism since heading into Xmas (see post below about Florida).
I think over the last few months I’ve been trying to do a lot of progressive stuff (job-wise) and the payoff isn’t coming. I have two articles under review and these people are taking too long. That’s the problem with academic journals-- the shit takes forever to publish and when it does come out it’s so old, no one cares. I fear that with my ‘facebook’ article which is timely right now, but by fall who gives a shit.
I’ve been having a LOT of issues with baby boomers running the library world, not my school in particular, but the larger organization. It’s so inefficient.
As for GT- I have this “laguna beach” project I want to film in March and it’s all stalled because I am trying to get this very popular girl to be my “star” --- or whatever. She’s expressed interest, but it’s like the contract isn’t signed, she’s not 100% committed - I can’t round out the cast without her. So it’s frustrating.
I’m so swamped at work because I take on so much extra shit. The sad thing is I’m still going to get the same lame raise whether I’m hardcore or just drifting by.
I think I need a vacation. No work. No web. Just good food and good books. Cloistered away somewhere with lots of snow. Oh well, too much shit to do to think about that right now. If you don’t hear from me in a while, understand why.
