They Might Be Giants

I saw They Might Be Giants [inlink]twisted,86[/inlink] twice in concert and both times sucked really bad. I can't even remember where the first time was but the second time was at Thursday in the Square this year. Maybe it was just the concerts I attended or something. I used to really like them. Actually, I still find their music entertaining on cassette (yes cassette) but I would have to say that missing the concert wasn't that big of a loss.

Did anyone see them somewhere else and have a better experience?

What A Dramatic Day

So I turned down another job this month. Apparently, I have a knack for rejecting jobs right now. I figure it's better to just concentrate on finishing the MFA and promoting my own business ventures than helping other people promote theirs right now. Basically, I wanted to move out the SF and work with (e:twisted) on something that it yet to be determined.

The job actually sounded quite exciting and definitely within my range of things I love to do but my thesis needs to come out of me now and its not gonna happen while working 40 hours a week. I also couldn't break my contract at Canisius, however little I get paid, because I feel like it would end up ruining my professorship future. It's just not worth losing four years of good hard work and a possible future for a 4 month contac and I like it there. Even if the new job would pay better. Although not that much better - per hour actually less.

What it comes down to is should I teach or should I be a programmer or professional artist of some sort. Choice two makes me feel like a retail worker in the mall.

Jim Leong Sucks - On a side note our idiot landlord shut the water off for construction again without giving us notice. So we complained again as it has been everyday non-stop problems during the construction. After a lame argument he made us take down the elmwoodstrip.com banner. I decided to make a whole website about what an asshole he is with interviews, etc. Should be fun. I hope in the long run he will learn not to fuck with Sicilians. If any of you want an apartment on elmwood don't choose the one on elmwood and lafayette. Not only is the landlord a jerk, the plumbing is no toxic PVC.

Tasty Dinner, Trying Day

I have spent the whole day working and suffering through construction at our house and no hot water.

I finished my resume so I can start applying to a new part-time future. Thank you (e:twisted) for all your help. I owe you big time.

Thanks to (e:terry) , at least I have a tasty parmesean tilapia with mesclun mix, blackberries, olives and organic pickles.

Took a break

I headed over to the pet store with (e:matthew) and (e:terry) .It seems so unnatural to have so many of the same thing in bunches. I guess that is just the way that stores operate.

There was a pretty fish but it needed a bigger tank than we have.

Sorry (e:lilho) , he always seemed gay to me anyways

Our Horrible Apartment

But Most of all I hate the monkeys that are doing construction on my house.

So after alerting Jim numerous times that no one is allowed in our apartment without us, and that we often have no water or electricity for hours, we had the most ridiculous experience this morning. Not to mention we pay $800 plus a month to live here.

This morning I woke up to a part of our ceiling coming down on my $800 digital camera. One foot away from the oh so carefully balanced saltwater fishtank ecosystem the would have been lovely.

Then once agai,n with no notice they started to come into the apartment. I have specifically told Jim Leong, my landlord, that this is unacceptible and that I don't want workers in my house without me there. I actually locked the door and the work man came in. Why does he ever have a key, if he is not supposed to be here without me!! Then he tried to use this note from over a week ago as though it was notice enough. [inlink]paul,2430[/inlink]

Then after going to find them to tell them I walk back into my apartment and while standing at th e kitchen door more debris hits me as they installed a seocnd wire. Why don't they yell lookout below or something.
