Well, I can't even properly waste technology. I tried posting via AudioBlogger a few times during lunch, but hung up each time instead of hitting “#” (like you're supposed to) when I was finished! It's a habit of mine.
Anyway, I was just posting to say that one of my co-werkers was let go (laid off, fired, axed, terminated, eliminated, deleted, etc.) at the end of the day yesterday. They say we just don't have enough work for him. Oh well...HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
On one hand it definitely sucks. He was the fellow employee I felt closest to, if you could say that about any of my fellow employees. He helped me fix my car, gave me his old turntable when mine broke, and would often give me a ride home when I didn't feel up to riding the Metro. Oh, and don't get me started on all the yer mom jokes made between us. It certainly won't be the same here in the back office without him.
Then again, he had been talking about getting out of here soon and was already interviewing for other jobs. He was really dreading the work that was coming his way here. So at least he'll be happier in the long run.
Meanwhile it should hopefully give me a touch of job security. [So much for having to actually get to work! Haha.] We're now down to six people. This is the smallest company I've ever worked for (the record store I worked at in college had more people!), which can be cool but also very scary sometimes. Ay.
FUCK, I have to get xmas shopping, guys. No one in my family will tell me anything. OK. Hope you like your gift certificates, assholes! Don't these people have any hobbies? No, no they don't. If you say to me at any given time, “Hey Jeff, what do you want? Oh by the way, you're looking good today,” I can name you like at least ten things on the spot. That reminds me——this list has been going around lately which shows you which stores gave money to which campaign in this year's elections. Buy blue.
I made some brownies the other night. Dark chocolate, even. I've just been feeling too in-shape for the holidays, ya know? Didn't feel right.
These are pretty funny. The Shining one is my favorite. Thanks, Jen.

The Shining is my favorite too. So what do the Places sound like? I tried to find their stuff on Limewire, but no luck.
Hmm. I'm not very good at describing music. You'll see what I mean when the music section goes up. Hehe.
In the meantime, go here for some info from the label and a few MP3s from their latest record. [that's a frame page, so click the “home” link at the bottom to see the rest of their site.]
Are you on a Mac? If not, I'd recommend SoulSeek. It took me a while, but that's where I found it originally.
