You "make" time for your forums. You "make" time for your facebook feed. When are you going to "make" time for me? -
...In This Ever Changing World in Which we Live In...
I understand it now. More than I ever did I think I understand the High Lord's desire to hunker down and not leave his rooms for 10 years.* Lately it seems that I have no desire to leave my house if I can avoid it. I find it preferable to just stay home. The more I see on the news, the more I want to just keep my door closed. To date I have ( Read more... ) -
Sisyphus, Party of One...Sisyphus...Party of One.
I realize that I haven't written anything on here in almost a year, but I figure it's time. I've been keeping up with my blog on my photog website, but this is a private matter ( Read more... ) -
A CLUe
I found out today that apparently “a few people said something” about me wearing a kilt on Friday, April 6th…you know National Tartan Day. I find it amusing that an institution that prides itself on knowledge and is opening up a science studio based on Cultures within the next few years would have people who would not only be so closed minded, but ( Read more... ) -
Politics: Reward the Privileged, Punish the Suffering
To put it mildly...i realized just how much i loathe my job.
Part of my job is to handle donations. We have certain criteria that needs to be met. i had a women call me about one a few days ago, and i told her she didn't fit the criteria. So she e-mailed my boss (who quit about a month ago). The e-mail went to the CEO's assistant, who asked the CEO ( Read more... ) -
Rant
They told me that they would hire me for the Gala. About a month and a half out I e-mailed my boss (the one who requested me for the first event and said that she would hire me for the gala), and the Events coordinator (who sits an office away from me ~20 feet) asking if I was still in the running or if they had hired someone else. I never got a ( Read more... ) -
Smells and Aromas...
It never ceases to amaze me how much the sense of smell is tied in with memory. We have an intern here who, lately, has been going a bit heavy on the floral perfumes. At the time she walked in today the CEO’s assistant was making a fresh pot of coffee for a board meeting. The combination of the two reminded me of all the times spent in my ( Read more... ) -
Isolation
Do you have any idea what it’s like to be me? To not be wanted by just about everyone you meet? To be avoided? To be feared, for no reason that you can discern? I think part of the separation comes from the fact that people’s bodies and their words never particularly matched up to me. Their voices sounded sincere, but their bodies betrayed them ( Read more... ) -
Quotes from Work
Since I started working at the museum I've been collecting quotes of some of the most inane questions I get on a regular basis. It's a little bit "Not Always Right" and a whole lot of WTF? Figured it was time to write them down somewhere besides a random notebook, and I'll likely update these as I get them. Sometimes there's a huge drought... ( Read more... ) -
Black Shirt
Two years I’ve waited for someone ask me why I always wear my black shirt on Wednesdays ( Read more... )
