self-titled: ^_^

I was supposed to do laundry tonight, but i was rummaging through a bag looking for some wires, and i found a clean white shirt and i was like "fuck you, laundry, i got what i need to go another day." and that was the end of that.

yesterday i slept late, went to work, we called nons all day, so i got a whopping 2 pledges. then i came home, and watched tv and played final fantasy 6.

today i went to work, listened to some music. the spiritualized disc is super duper awesome. the mum disc even better, it's organic electronic, soothing like boards of canada but a wider array of instruments. the that dog disc is good as well, lots of good songs about simple crushes. makes me want to get the album before it, "totally crushed out." track 6, "minneapolis" has done a wonderful thing. it's given me that really good kinda chills feeling. about a girl who sees a guy at some party, and asks about him, her friends tell him she asked, and she leaves the party and he follows and they talk and she's all timid and embarrassed and then he invites her to see Low when they play in Minnesota. something about songs mixing rock music and love just do something crazy to me. and that fucking melody, woohoo.

and then i got dinner and then i went to work. calling lybunts, we did a lot better today. i got like 1500, and 6 credit cards, but apparently the "4 credit cards = 10 bucks" is just a bullshit promotion that they only pretend to have. oh well.

during work #1 today, i went out to radioshack and picked up my record player, it's pretty nice actually, i did some internet research and saw it being sold at a couple places for over $100 used. it's from the mid 80s, but i guess really, how far has record player technology come since then? i got it for $20 bucks.

I just came home now and tried it out. a couple things i noticed. first, is the warm not-quite hiss that leaves it's mark on all the songs. it's what i like to call "the love," and am fine with it. the other is this high-pitched quiet mechanical noise that i can hear during extremely soft parts. that's what i like to call "i need to check my connections." I think it's a mixture of the wire and placement of the table in relation to other electronic appliances.

i realize that i have like no free time with all this work and shit. which really isn't a problem. class will end this week and things'll open up. but hey, this phone job is an extra 100 a week at least, and that means like 10 cds.
