going through the motions
so i'm thinking that this new position will have a positive effect on my life. what's that? positive? my life? can those two items go together? yeah yeah, basically i'm in the position where if i play it right, i can pick up some mad self-confidence. i mean, there's two ways to play it: i'm a 22 year old kid and these 40+ers have no reason to listen to me OR fuck it, they'll listen to me and if they don't screw them. as long as i can stick to that latter attitude, i think that'll be a big help for me in realms outside of the job. today i went to a building to do a quick walkthrough for a condominium that just hired us. i get to the building and find out they didn't hire us, but instead i was there to be interviewed. Now my boss thought it was just a walkthrough and would certainly have not sent me for a new business interview. but there was some miscommunication, and there i was, 22 years old with slightly spiked hair talking to some 55 year old professor and two 35-40 year old women all of whom own $600,000 condos on beacon hill telling them why they should hire me to manage their condos.
and that's all, i've got to go to bed. my dad was up friday night and we went to flemings and ate steak then i went to our house to meet mike and katie. saturday, nothing. monday, poker till 2:30. and oh man, i'm getting old or something because drinking until 2 and then sleeping for 3 hours is NOT fun anymore and i felt like crap all the following day.
lots of kewl new music. new shins is superb. this sufjan stevens album is lovely. and other junk as well. also, bright eyes to have a track on the next dntel album? that's weird.
new belle and sebastian is really great. it's funny, it's like ,"Belle and sebastian play old american rock music" there's stuff on there all over the map. you can hear csny, elvis costello, thin lizzy, some dylan, classic 50s stuff, it's really quite fun.
ok, out.
