The unemployment office finally called me today, of course at the end of a 4 hour window that I had to sit by the phone through. The woman didn't even ask me about my second-to-last job, the reason I was told that they had to call me. I'd already given someone else all the infomation about my last job, so I have no idea what the hold up is or even if I'll be getting benefits before jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1152836489035646682006-07-13T17:20:00.000-07:002006-07-13T17:21:29.046-07:00I think the summer drains all my desire to blog.

I had dinner with some friends and hung out at Cheers (of course). I got a cool box set of early electronic music from my roommate. Other than that, nothing to report.jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1135297548382401352005-12-22T16:25:00.000-08:002005-12-22T16:25:48.396-08:00There's something funny about getting the Joys of Yiddish for a Christmas present.jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1135255704461050382005-12-22T04:43:00.000-08:002005-12-22T04:48:24.483-08:00“Mother is the name for God on the lips and hearts of children.” I made it through school, made it through college since my mother told me that is where I should be. She read to me every night since that’s where I needed to be. Her name means more to me than the hundreds of names that God has.jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1134786643178575432005-12-16T18:30:00.000-08:002005-12-16T18:30:43.190-08:00Yarg, our power went out for about a half hour.

I was given my leather jacket and I bought all my boots second-hand, but still. Perhaps I should donate them. I hope I don’t start feeling this way about wool, I wouldn’t have a single thing to wear.jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1134519226157379952005-12-13T16:13:00.000-08:002005-12-13T16:13:46.173-08:00"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970614.post-1134465088064895452005-12-13T01:10:00.000-08:002005-12-13T01:11:28.076-08:00California just killed someone just a few hours after my sister brought another life into this cruel world.jimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10668474366649484597noreply@blogger.com0
