the gig
my job at dc is so surreal. and i know what surreal is, i've seen eraserhead. well, thats not true, but ive seen enough to get the picture.
but back to my jobbie... its always like, damn, someone should take care of that, it's kind of a big deal... oh wait, that would be my job. and while i run meetings and stuff, i never fully realize the consequences of my actions, which is somewhat bad. in a way, i get to dance through the day without huge worries and subsequent ulcers... but its routine and there's badness in routine. but then there's always drama that happens, so all is crazy again.
first real meeting for my thesis was today... writing it is surreal also. my prof made good comments, nothing tooooooooooo terrible, ego still intact and all. so, not bad. first hurdle passed, several more to go. turns out the concept needs tweaking, which is good bec now i have lots more to talk about.
vday tomorrow. today. whatever. he bought me coffee for my new coffee maker - regular and decaf so i can mix them and not get too wired. smart boy. also, flowers. and promises of dinner later. unfortunately we were too busy/lazy (however that works) to do dinner this past weekend, and im gone this weekend, and then tuesday i have work and he has papers... so, yeah, at some point we'll do the couple thing. in the mean time the kid goes for sweetness and substance over cash moneyz, which is what vday is all about, right? bdays and anniversaries are for spending the big money, no?
unrelated: i really like raul midon's new album. get it. now.
happy valentines day to all! :)
