go on call your mama if you need a band aid

an hour ago i had an idea to come on here and complain. adam lost, the eurovision high is finally slowing down, and i don't know if i'm doing anything right. yesterday i went to a fed ex recruitment thing with dad, a lot of signing my name and social security number over and over again. the thing that bugged me about it was that morning, an hour or so before i had to go, i got a call from accoutemps, the temp agency i signed up with, saying the had a data entry job that started that day. besides having plans, that involved seeking full time employment, i was pretty intimidated by the idea of running out the door for a job i knew hardly anything about. and i was groggy, the call was what woke me up thirty seconds before my alarm was supposed to. so i was fretting about whether i messed things up royally by turning it down until i got another call today about a much better possibility. not the same kind of get up and go situation, i will need to, you know, get the interview and whatnot, but it feels good that this start/stop thing that the job market has been is starting resemble a regular flowing stream again. its good to see some activity, know that i'm not wandering around in the ether.

so as much as i like the gargoyle, i'm finding myself really missing miss sookie. and i'm aching for true blood to start. i'm so tuned into it that i don't even have to turn around to know that a commercial for it is on tv, i recognize the music. i'm thinking i might get the first season on dvd, its the kind of thing i can see myself watching several times over. i wish goodreads was more like myanimelist in that there's features for listing your favorite characters and whatnot, because i think sookie would end up on there for me, along with will perry and milton's satan. goodreads isn't so much about the list obsession though, i've gotten used to it, but its really doesn't have that great of a format. but anyway, i wish i wasn't trying to finish the gargoyle just so i can move on to dead as a doornail as quickly as possible, but i can't help it, the gargoyle is plenty interesting and sick and romantic, but it doesn't have the same kind of addictive fire. i don't know what i'm going to do when i finish the series.

as for the idol finale last night, i know that it doesn't really matter that adam lambert is not the american idol, he's going to take over the world anyway, but it just would've been a nice cherry on top, the perfect climax to the season. and i feel for those that are hurting because of it, it does feel a bit like if someone as dominant, creative and engaging as adam can't win, then what openly gay person can? but as said, it doesn't matter much really except as a symbol. tonight i have the so you think you can dance premiere, and after that is the fashion show, which makes me miss project runway more than anything, but its still pretty good. what would i do without my competitive reality tv?

books, pop culture, tv
