I'm back (kinda sorta)
Whenever I think "I'm back" I think of that Pulp song "I'm back and in full effect" which probably refer's to Jarvis' erection or something...what song is that? Is it a B-side? A pre-His'n'Hers number? Anyone? Oh see now that reminds me of a Moving Units song...I really need some new bands.
I went to see the Clientele this week, they were decent, but the songs I liked most were new ones they're recording for the next album. How do you find out about new music these days? Is it really time to join My Space? I just feel like I've lost it (Oh, now that's like 5 Baxendale songs right there where these is some reference to losing things).
So work. I've heard you aren't really supposed to talk to much about work online because you never know whose reading it, hehehe. But it's fine. My boss is pretty easy going, I like the people I work with despite that fact everyone in my dept is an older male and they work with all these intense looking reports that scare the bejesus out of me and make me very aware even after 2 weeks that with this job there is no up for me. I don't think I want to go up. The benefits are good, I like working with customers actually because we tend to have a higher class clientele since the publications cater to a more sophisticated audience and I get to deal with tons of international types. But it's also kind of isolating. I don't really get to meet people in other departments and if I have met them we don't really talk. I am becoming friends with receptist who started a week before me and I have to cover for her once a week, god I never want to be a receptionist. I'm so glad I have a job function beyond answering phones and sitting at a front desk all day that you can never leave, poor kid. The HR Assistant is also my age but she's really uptight, actually I should feel more sorry for her bc the recptionist at least can check her email and such but the HR girl has soooo much work, she eats lunch so late and she always just seems really harried. So basically, I'm working on creating a social life outside of work. I'm almost embarassed to say this but there maybe Jewish speedating in the cards this week. There I said it, my horrible secret is out in the open. But considering of the few people I know in NY, one of them now living with me, and that one of them who, AHEM, name starts with a J and has relatives in Brooklyn and uses LJ but never returned my phone call ;p I need to know more people ASAP so I can have a life beyond watching cult Christian Bale movies (Newsies anyone?) and reading mystery novels. At least now I have Diana to rant to about life.
