happy working song

bored bored. i am bored. i am working and i am bored.
downstairs. downstairs. i am bored in the office downstairs.
loud. loud. babies are loud. babies are loud when they are sad.
food. food. girls cooking food. pork chops are on the menu tonight.
alone. alone. i am alone. the other staff is not here yet.

that pretty much sums it up. maybe andrew and i will record it next week. but, most likely no. so...yeah. everyone thought that Joan was supposed to be working with me tonight. but, it's 5pm and she's not here yet. hm. maybe i'll be alone tonight.

so, oh, i did end up working for courtney. that's okay. she's sick and i am not.

hm. possible trip to see papa and kara tomorrow. fun. fun. trips are fun.

it will be a long and slow night. we can't go anywhere because everyone got minuses last night. and (they don't know this yet) but i'm not giving them late curfew. they'll be mad and try to sneak it around me. but nope. not this night.

so, the swine flu has hit maine and massachusetts. my friend Alex who i work with told me she thought there were reported cases in new hampshire as well.

i read a cool and funny "status update" on facebook today that i thought i would share with you. here goes:

"just heard on the BBC that the best way to prevent getting swine flu is to not
smoke, eat healthy, exercise regularly and wear your seatbelt because not doing
those things have a 99 percent better chance of killing you"

i liked that.

any.ways. two girls are going home this weekend so it's pretty quiet.

well. i guess that's all. i'll probably be bored all night. working down here until 11. then overnight until 8am.

goal for tonight: nobody goes to the hospital. seems pretty reasonable, sure. we'll see how that goes.

ok. talk to you later!! enjoy your friday afternoon. stay classy.

(oh! i have to email kerianne back. i'll do that right now.)

<3!

  2. Julie! That HSM3 song you posted...is it about...Zac being gay?

    I know they've got a plan
    But the balls in my hands
    This time its man-to-man,
    [Society is pressuring him to stay heteronormative, but...well...let's just avoid that 'balls' reference and go straight to 'man-to-man']

    I don't know, where to go, what's the right team?
    I want my own thing. So bad I'm gonna Scream!
    I can't choose, so confused! What's it all mean?
    [Which team is Zac "batting for", precisely? This is both confusing and distressing to him.]

    And then the rest of the song is him dealing with his anger about all this. Just one possible interpretation. Aliya's thing is tonight! Her family is here! Sam maybe has swine flu! Excitement! Love you! We're going to Ireland! Can't not use exclamatory punctuation!
