I would totally be a person loaned! I can talk to people about stuff! I do it all the time!
Today we went running around town. The retail turnover here is huge, so it was all, wow, that restaurant closed? Where did that new solar business come from? And even us, we were in town to move some of our gear from the old music store, because the landlord was foreclosed on, so our boss had to move to a different loc. It's kinda a great move; better parking, visibility, access, foot traffic. But the space is smaller, and it's a little more awkward for us. We're not sure if there's going to be recording space still, and the classroom situation is going to be way different, with a coffeeshop/stage area, etc. But the new space looks good; it's just a lot of work.
Ooh! Hummingbird. I'd better boil up some new nectar.
Anyway, we also had our first business meeting back, and although I was feeling overwhelmed before, and I still feel like there's a shit ton to do, I also feel like it's achievable. I just have to make sure these few weeks before the school starts back up are productive.
I put in a request for quote at the dealership on a camaro, just in case it all goes south.
I said, "do me a favor, go out back and take a look at my trade-in. it's 7 years old. I bought it from you. I can't drive it because the gas pedal broke and there are none available in the US. Now think really hard about how you could convince me to buy another chevy from you considering that it could possibly be totaled over a 50 dollar part in 7 years. I'll see you at 6."
He said, "wow. I understand."
I said, "I understand that you'll have the deal of the century when I get there."
Ugh, Allyson.
I think my brow lady lurks and felt that my favoring my left brow was unfair. So she made it slightly too thin. Now my right brow looks like the better brow. It's the ugly bridesmaid dress of waxing.
Uhm, hi.
I like that I'm in a job where I can write in an official type place that one of the designers is like unto a ninja god.
I dislike that it means I'm falling behind in all kinds of communications with people I like.
So, yeah, hi y'all!
One of the networks in my building is called CaptainReynolds. How do I find out who this person is?
I just had an awful meeting where they rewrote the document I've been working on for a week in a format I completely fail to understand. Like, there's just no logic I can see to it, and I feel really stupid. And I look bad, too.
Hi DJ!
Allyson, your next car should be free.
Hi, Daisy! I have been thinking of you extra often since preseason football started.
We have just about everyone out of office today, a bunch of giant projects launching at the beginning of next month, and crackheaded stuff like v.3 requested before v.1. Those of us actually here today are behaving like we're in some sort of prison experiment.
For some reason I'm trying to get this place to hire me, and that is even turning into a bit of a farce.
On the other hand, I work with a ninja god.
I need to work "Chanandler Bong" into casual conversation this weekend.
