Where oh where is my grouch? I've heard not a peep from him in three days. I hope he is ok. :-/
I don't want to have to put his mug on a milk carton.

Well! If this isn't a big fuck-all that I'm awake at 7:30 in the morning for NO GOOD REASON. I had a hard time falling asleep last night as it was. I blame my allergies for waking me up.
*yawns*
I'll be trying to go back to sleep after I write this, I'm sure.
To everyone who wished me luck yesterday, thanks! I don't know for sure if I got the job yet or not. I pretty much had to sit there yesterday and listen to the owner almost obsessively talk about garden gnomes. He said I would know for sure in a couple of days.
I found out another one of my friends is leaving town. I met up with Welton after my interview and consumed beer (among other things) with him. He told me that he is leaving for Tucson of all places at the beginning of next month. He almost had me convinced I should go as well. I'm still not sure. I keep flip-flopping back and forth on it. If Spoink! doesn't hire me I'll probably give this town a rest for at least a year. Besides, I'll have yet another friend there. Anyway, it was good hanging with him for the day. He did a good job of keeping my mind off the main thing that's troubling me.
Whoo! I just got an idea for where to store my stuff! I need to shoot off an e-mail to Scooter.

I haven't had a late night by myself for weeks. I'm usually up late only if the I'm with the grouch or I get caught up in following links on the net. Lately I watch a movie when I'm alone. It almost never fails to help me fall asleep. But tonight I've been sitting here following links. I spent this last hour reading Hunter S. Thompson's odd mix of sports and politics on ESPN's web site. I like his explanation for Bush's approval rating drop. Really, what patriotic, red-blooded American would go to bed early during the Superbowl? The shame...
Spoink! seemed very interested in me. It would be an easy job as it is essentially the exact same thing I was doing at 3 Monkeys with a lot of the same product. The only real difference is it wouldn't be quite as lonely. I would have the girl next door at the ice cream shop to yak at if I got too bad. Miss Brandy and Miss Chelsey know what I'm talking about with loneliness and 3 Monkeys. So many days spent in that shop having to call the other stores to harass people just to talk to someone -the months after Christmas being to worst since I would be lucky if I got one or two customers in a day with the slow down. I hope Spoink! (yes, I will continue to use the exclamation point, it's in their name) at least allows me to read when I'm not busy. Anyway, everyone cross your fingers. I think I want this job.
The donated muscle relaxants and smoke are starting to wear off and I feel myself waking up more and more. I find myself wishing I could work on my next show, the only other thing besides this journal I use for catharsis sometimes. It would be good to have a stack of CDRs for making mixes on at least. I need to keep my mind off of John hitting L.A. by tomorrow. Diablo can only work for so long before I get bored and frustrated buy the uselessness of sitting in front of a video game. Packing is something I could be doing, but not at 2 a.m. . Maybe I should just try to sleep.

I'm on hiatus indefinitely from the radio. I don't want to deal with Live365's bull anymore.

I need a job bad. I got my final check from MM today. I had to walk to the SE 7th Ave. post office to get it, then back up Sandy to the Hollywood Fred Myer - long hot walk. It was enough to bring my bank account back up out of the red. Crossing my fingers that I get an unemployment check on Wednesday to cover the electric bill that I wrote a bad check for today just to keep it from being shut off. Thank you Wamu for giving me that $500 over-draft protection.
Plaid Pantry called me for an interview at 8am tomorrow. I don't really want to work for them, but they start at $9/hr. and offer education assistance. I could easily sling junk food and beer.
Time to start tracking down some other needed resources. There's gotta be someone that can help me with a Tri-Met pass so it's easier for me to get to a potential job. *starts digging*
At this rate I’m going to have a tan from walking everywhere in the blazing hot sun.
