so I'm on my lunch break at my new job. where I get to wear jeans on fridays. holla. everyone here is so nice, the pay isn't too bad, there's a little courtyard outside my big giant windows, and I think they like me. katy and chris came back from office max with my whole wish list, and it was all cute and color coordinated. a shiny blue gelatinous bar for your wrist-wrest at the keyboard, and a matching one for my mousepad. and a bulletin/dry erase/magnet board (which I totally could have lived without). AND pushpins in blues and greens and purples that make me think of kristin, and an exceptionally well designed clear caddy for pens with these little drawers that swing out for tacks and paperclips and what not.
hi. I live here.
I just walked down to cafe vita for coffee, turns out it's a block away from silver platters and sushi land. double yay. when I am in a financially stable situation, I will be breathing down the neck of New Release Tuesday to get my paws on whatever is coming out that particular week.
I don't know if there's any online monitoring going on or anything, so I'll have to keep my online lunchbreak writing-break on the clean side. I have no idea how corporate stuff works, but I am going to err on the probability of Big Brother doing some Watching.
I felt all cracked out and disheveled this morning getting ready to leave, and as I sit here with my triple espresso and my apples & peanut butter everything seems to be alright. it's like by working all day that I thought I was going to be missing something, I don't know. what is there to miss? everybody's working. and everyone can email at work, so it's not like major stuff is going to go down that I need to be sitting home for... what a difference a (half of a) day makes.
so I'm two blocks from coffee, a record store, the needle, and about twelve seconds from KEXP. oh, and like, a mile from Home. I'm not quite sure what else I could ask for. speaking of KEXP, I put in an email to shoot Rocky Votolato tomorrow. I think he's good, from what I've heard people say about him. I freaking love the in-studios, being at them and in them, I mean. it's stellar.
well, it's nearing the end of break, and I should like, break, because my mind is chroncially otherwise occupied. some nothing with a side of espresso might be nice.
kisses,
LG
