Yay! Empty office already means
Yay! Empty office already means music for Lauren. I might even knit in a bit, 'cause there is literally no one here. Well, except for the janitor, but whatever. No one who gives a shit about ratting bored little parttimers out. Score!I made it to the concert last night, somehow. I changed my tapes a bit early and was out the door at 7.30 on the dot... and then waited half an hour for the bus across Houston, which never came. Wound up walking from Washington Square to Houston and Ave B in Chinatown slippers, in the pouring rain, with my umbrella over my bag instead of me 'cause the $500 camera? Doesn't really benefit from getting soaked. Of course neither do I, but at least I still work afterwards.
At any rate, Jonny Lives! went on late enough that I made it to the club with plenty of time to spare, during which Dayna and I listened to Adri's hospital tales. meep. JL were great, of course. It became clear after a bit that the band had absolutely no recollection of who the three girls in the front were, because all three of them kept giving us looks like "wtf, we're pictureworthy???" throughout the set. We stayed for the second act and the first couple songs of the third, then took off.
Shitload of concerts coming up next month - the Killers, the Strokes, the Libertines. Of course the last thing I need to be doing right now is spending money since even $20 tickets are expensive when there's $300 in your checking account... but whatever, right? I just wish Franz would release their New York tour date for September already so I could stop worrying about how I'll beg off work - or class, if I'm unlucky, since SFX Makeup is Wednesday nights, and it's mean to Dayna to pray for a Saturday night concert. It'd be the first class, though... guess that's the one to miss, if I have to. Still. Goddamn school, messing up my concert plans.
My new knitting business cards came the other day, and they're really pretty. I tried to post pictures of 'em yesterday, but that went really badly. Suffice it to say that they're soooo much nicer than Kinko's makeshift cards - grey laid paper with raised black printing. Cheaper, too. yays.
hehe, I'm subjecting other people to "Michael" now. Not even the only one here anymore, but the headphones aren't coming off. They're just not.
