Well I have officially entered the last part of last century! The great person at AG sent me a mini MP3 Player- Zen. I can now listen to music at work! 
I’m such a dork that I didn’t ever really prioritize my music listening. I rarely turn anything on these days, and if I do, it’s via my computer or console. A music collection that ended the beginning of 2004 and I hadn’t really paid attention to anything else. No radio, no music TV… I’m delightfully oblivious to anything new.
I really shouldn’t say that. I do want to expand my music collection, I just have no idea where to begin any more. My only slight issue is that my ears are so dang small that standard earphones don’t quite fit. I think I have very pretty ears- but obviously not practical when it comes to listening to music.
Tonight is the first episode of the new season of “Who wants to be a Superhero”. Jonathon is stoked. That’s OUR show. Granted it’s a little cheesy and last season probably gave the new contestants a heads up as to what he (Stan Lee) expects (although I’m betting they’re going for the fifteen minutes of fame- so some agent or friend gave them notification of a reality TV Show that they’ve just jumped at). Gawd people annoy me at times.
The annoyance goes through my head on a semi-regular basis. Most notably with the media. The media frenzy over moronic celebrities who do not deserve or need any attention whatsoever. WHO CARES what they’re doing in their lives? I think the only people who are really shelling out the money to give them time and attention IS the media- paparazzi etc. The only reason things about them are flying off the shelves is because they mix those stories in with interesting articles and… and… OMG people… if you stop paying attention it will all cease!
I don’t CARE about Britney or Lindsey or who ever else they’re invading and plastering all over papers/magazines and television shows. PLEASE GIVE ME SOMETHING INTERESTING! I rely on the media at times because I don’t have a jet to send me all over the world on a whim.
Oooh that’d be cool… a neat little Ghic Chic alert that goes off once something cool has been invented, discovered or is on sale.

Work isn’t going so well. Hard to tell actually. The departments keep shrinking, people continue to get shuffled around. I feel like creating a “ribbon” for our jobs. “Support our Jobs” “Bring Our Jobs Home”. Each time something gets fixed with a program performance wise, I know it’s not to make my life easier or the people around me, I know it’s because someone came in recently to draw process maps for the oh so familiar outsourcing. We had to deal with the shotty performance issues for years and then the obvious fix is rolled into production so… ugh. It’s just a feeling as I’ve gone through this before. It almost feels like a ghost town at times. Pretty soon we’ll be able to fit all people one floor. Apparently upstairs as everyone is slowly fading from down here.
I also feel that they’re just going to shut the whole building down. I guess I’ll see what happens and stick with it until it’s no mo’ because you never know… I could be wrong, but if you know me… you’d know I’m always right. If am proven wrong, something was messed up in the equation.
Salem is already a dead place for jobs, life, horrible medical community, etc. It makes it even more depressing to see your work environment crumble around you.
Enough of that, gotta lift my spirits back up again… A night of Who Wants to be a Superhero and Scrubs
