Showtunes

There have been many stuck in my head the last few days. Right now it's that "We could be heros, forever and ever.." from Moulin Rouge, although I'm sure that's not the only place it's used. The other day it was "I could have danced all night" from My Fair Lady.

Yeah. Life. It rocks.

Because

Because I work a lot, I haven't written a whole lot.

Because hours have been cut, I am sitting and writing now.

Lots have things have happened. I started my third week at my job today. Yay me. I still love my car. My parents took a vacation for VD day, it was nice to have a break even though I worked all that week.

I've been watching old movies lately. They're celebrating 80 years of Oscars on TCM this month and part of next. I discovered a love for James Cagney. So, for Christmas I should be easy to shop for ;).

I had to get reading glasses for work. I feel old, but after using them all day my eyes don't feel half as tired as they used to.

So, that's been about my life. Work. Coffee. Cigarettes, and Patrick. Patrick is my good friend. He's cute. He's funny. He's a homo. I loves him. He's as big of a whore as I am. :D

Simple Creature

I really am just a simple creature.

I like grape soda. I like the way my toes feel in the sand. I like it when my nephew points at me and says "Uh!"

I like my new job. I'm catching a lot of hell because I've been in school to be something else upon growing up. I haven't decided if I'm still going to get my degree (I know Melissa. I know). I'm just not sure I want to be a paralegal anymore. If you guys knew how people who've studied law are chastised for not pursuing jobs in the legal field upon graduation, I think you'd understand. While having *a* degree is good. Generally people don't care about what it's in (unless you're applying for, say, and engineering job, but you're an english major). But when it comes to law you get this air of "what the fuck is wrong with you?" Like, "You can make fifty million trillion dollars in a week and you're not and I want to know why."

It's different than most other career paths, trust me. Lawyers have it even worse. They get raked over the coals.

Right now, I'm working on keeping my degree in simple creaturism. I love you guys. I appreciate it that you care about how and where my life goes. I'd also appreciate it if you'd try and understand my decision for the time being.
