CHANGE #20050911
isn’t it great how people usurp phrases? sue was telling me on friday how annoying it was that people were calling new orleans the ‘ground zero’ of hurricane katrina. it was ‘taken’ from 9/11, an event which the media over-saturated us with so much so that i really can’t muster much thought about it. well funny thing is, it was the americans that created the ‘original’ ‘ground zeroes’ in hiroshima and nagasaki 60 years ago. strange no?
so aruny and i did something random today. we were at old navy and while we were walking towards the register there was this giant coin-operated machine selling balls for a quarter. so i said, ‘hey! it’s only a quarter, maybe we can get a glow-in-the-dark one!’ and so in went a quarter and out came a dirty fluorescent yellow ball. there were black smudges on it! and as we left the store arun was like, ‘why do we have this?’ so i suggested we take it back and ask them to put it back in the machine and they can keep the quarter. we went out to trin square and sat on the steps of the church. he was hoping the fountain would still be running, but i tink they were draining it for the w_ _ _ _ r. anyhow, there was this kid splashing around in what was left of the water. his family was sitting on the concrete bench. so i walked up to the father and told him that this was a really weird thing to ask, but would his son like the ball? so he said he would and thanked me.
am i the only one that laments the coming of film festival every year? there’s hardly anything to read in the newspaper because everyone is star gazing. who the fekk cares?! have THEY really done any good in your life? i just find that people flock to certain areas, some parts of streets are cordoned off etc etc. and don’t get me started on all those stupid film crews that were always around yew uv tee campus that made me walk extra just to get around their asses. fuckers. i’m sure i paid more to be there.
so i went to harbuck’s with sue on flyday after we saw ’40 yr old virgin’ (not a bad movie, but only worth the $4.25 at rainbow cinemas) anyhow, i can’t drink their coffee anymore. snobby? yes… hahaha.. but i still might work for them and put my conscience aside for medical benefits and such.
need a job. need to move out for sanity’s sake. want a cat. saw the cute black cat with a tiny white patch last week. i spent about 10 minutes just scratching it’s back/belly/neck. everytime i got up, the cat would start to meow, run in front of me, rub against my legs until i crouched down to pet it again. i was thinking ‘bout applying to this f/t position at a pet store, but then i realized that i’d be too annoyed at how things were run and why little puppies were allowed to eat there own shit.
anyway, something have been resolved in my life which has caused me much more grief than i previously thought. but i’m relieved that it’s over with. i won’t divulge for public consumption although i was tempted last week.
