Thanksgiving Break thus far

Nothing of great interest has happened since I got home at around 10 o’clock on Tuesday night. Today I woke up late, went to the dentist, ran some errands, and lounged around the house doing nothing in particular. I was doing my laundry throughout the night last night—I had about three weeks’ worth of it, [...]

Quick tidbits about my Monday

On Monday: I woke up 45 minutes late but was only ten minutes late to work. My iPhone was gawked at, and I was made fun of for spending so much money on it. I was an excellent salesman. I sold over $400 worth of merchandise and several hundred dollars worth of business services. I [...]

My day in 300 words or less

I traveled at a breakneck pace on the highway, only to have a ridiculously busy (and sweaty) day at work. I realized just how much I cannot tolerate incompetence, especially among people who are supposed to be “superior” to you because of age, or experience, or seniority. I learned that helpful, personalized attention provided to [...]

More griping about the rising cost of college

So, as I wrote in a previous entry, the total cost of attending Wesleyan for 2007-08 is figured at $50,728. I didn’t even have to look at the post again to write that; the number’s already burned into my brain after only one day. That’s a ridiculously large amount of money. Thankfully, financial aid covers [...]

Saying goodbye to the iPhone

Or, at least, saying “see you later.” I’ve decided that I’m going to pass on buying the Apple iPhone when it’s released at 6 PM on June 29. $600 for the phone itself, plus a new contract with AT&T, is just far too much money to spend on something not necessary. In order to make [...]

Busy days at work, porno sounds, and fine art

Work will be crazy today. I have to go in early; lots and lots of activity expected on the loading dock. I will wear my relatively-less-nice red dress shirt instead of the usual selection. I’m meeting new people, too. Elvin in Security, Khin in Service Express, a slew of new coordinators in Convention Services. Angel [...]
