music: 'love is a deserter' by the kills
today is a day of fives.
coincidentally, today in period 5, which is oceanography, mr. gorr wrote on the board next to the agenda, 'today only happens once a century,' which i hadn't realized until that moment. then i thought about it some more, and surfacing from a minor case of awe came the facts. you could really say that sentence for any day this century. actually, you could say that about any moment at any time in the entirety of time itself. engulfed in both the meaninglessness of the sentence and the greater awe of what that sentence had pointed to, i let go of the idea, so as to avoid a world of spinning stars, singing cartoon birds, and a headache the size of montana. i settled for singing david bowie's 'space oddity' along with miles and rocking out to the handclappy acoustic bridge.
today, i was feeling a bit defiant at work. my quota is never enforced, and after 7+ months as an employee, i honestly still don't know exactly what it is. at this point it seems as though my job is utterly insignificant. aimless, trivial, feckless, pick one.
oh, and that other accounting job actually is just helping the accountant sort and double-check invoices from 3 or more months ago. convinced that i'm not really needed yet? i left 2 hours early just to see what would happen. that means i worked a grand total of 1 hour today. so far, i'm unscathed by the fiery wrath of daniel, sushi monarch of the woods of ingle.
bite me, kikka. i'm quitting at the end of the month.
