Boomtown Rats had Monday Right All Along

I have 7 work days left at my crudsville temp job, so I figured I may as well ease the boredom by writing my daily play list again. At fancy new job with fancy door to a fancy enclosed office, I'll be able to use my computer for music so you'll see it all on last.fm. Until then:

I got put in a most awful mood yesterday, hence the angry music most of this morning:
- Cursive - Happy Hollow (Listened to it twice - totally awesome!!)
- An Albatross - We are the Lazer Viking
- One animal collective song - prospect hummer. I always seem to LOVE one or two songs on their albums, meh about the rest
- The VSS - 21:51
- Pleasure Forever - S/T
- Cursive - Domestica
- Can - Tago Mago
- DFA1979 - You're a Woman, I'm a Machine
- E-40 - My Ghetto Report Card


I'm getting uncontrollably excited about starting my new job in a week and a half. It'll feel great to actually be challenged at work, to actually create something productive, and to make an impact on students. None of these things occur at my temp job. I'm even excited for the teaching component of the job - imagine me in front of a bunch of 18-22 year olds telling them how to use the library - lolzville. I swear I won't make it boring!

Now if only the rest of my life could come together the way my career is. Dating is clearly not happening, and if anything I've regressed quite a bit since getting here. People are getting flakey, or maybe they always were and I'm just now getting disappointed. And my diet is down the tubes. I need a roommate again to keep me on track. Oh well, I'm still having tons of fun and meeting new friends every week so whatever. I just have to change my expectations a bit, as in downgrade them to an extent when it comes to shit like returning phone calls or hell, even contacting me more than once a month. I'm finding if I stick to my No Flakes mantra, then I may have only 3 friends left.

I've been missing SF something fierce. I am thinking about taking a trip there in September or October, when the busy part of the fall semester is over and finals haven't yet begun. If J will be there over thanksgiving, maybe I'll do it then to avoid using vacation time.
