2004.08.27 i'm so lost out on the highway:
jesus. i've completely dropped the ball on posting, this week. i wish i could say i've been busy, but i really haven't. i've just been sitting around the house the past couple of days, doing nothing. i've had a shitty stomach thing going on, so at least i have a quasi-excuse.
i did go see garden state with the girl on tuesday, though. it wasn't half bad. i'd even say it was good. but brooksie seems to think it's the greatest thing since they started slicing bread, which i'm not really agreeing with. he's also saying it was better than eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, which has me thinking he's gone completely insane.
for the record, i actually started a post on monday, but i closed out of firefox without saving it, so it was lost. oddly enough, it had the same title as this one.
i've come to the conclusion that i really, really hate my fucking job. even after having a rather long mid-week break from it due to my illness, i hate it. i think i actually hate it even more. i swear…if my job were a human being, i'd kill it. i'd kill it and spend the rest of my life in prison laughing to myself, saying "i got you in the end, job! you ain't ever gonna fuck with me again!"
or maybe i'd just punch "job" in the face and tell him i fucking quit.
either way, we have a show tonight, which i will probably be late for, due to my ridiculously shitty job. i asked them if i could squeeze out a little early, due to the fact that i have an obligation to rock a few total strangers over at woody's, but they declined, saying "we're too busy."
yeah…i'd also spit in "job's" face right after i quit.
brooksie said:
That whole "fuck you, job" and spitting in it's face thing… yeah, you've tried that before with other "jobs" and it never really worked out for you. Maybe you should just suck it up and realize that.. (drumroll).. work sucks! Forever and ever no matter what you do, work will always suck.
Oh yeah, and you're a big liar. I never once even equated Garden State with Eternal Sunshine.. much less say it was better. But for the record, as good as ESOTSM was, I did enjoy Garden State more. So fuck you, job.

First off: I can tell my job to fuck off all I want. Like everyone else, I hate my job. I'm just ranting about how I hate my job.
Secondly: You DID say it was better than Eternal Sunshine. You said it was the best movie you've seen all year and I said "what about…" and you said you thought it was better.

if you ever need some help with kicking job's ass, let me know. job has been pissing me off lately too. as a matter of fact, if you said, "let's go beat job down and then drive over job a couple times with the car," i'd be down with that.
brian. said:
See…Brooksie just lacks perspective on this issue, I think.
Seth said:
Brooksie doesn't work where we work.
brian. said:
Brooksie hardly goes to work where he DOES work.
brooksie said:
I don't lack perspective, I hate job too buddy. But I'd rather just avoid him as much as possible than actually beat him down. Because as much as he gets on my nerves, he's nice to have around once in a while. I can't, in good conscience, beat down somebody who's handing me some dolla bills y'all.
brooksie said:
oh yeah, and your little conversation never transpired. You never asked me that question and I never mentioned Eternal Sunshine… What I said, if you want some exact quotes was that Garden State was "the best movie I've seen in theaters since Lost in Translation". So fuck you, job.
