it's a digital material world

Damn. I am so disappointed. All full-time AmeriCorps positions have been filled. I want those recommendations back then! I don't want to think about jobs right now. Tomorrow I'll start going through the paper again.

So I'm going to try not fret too much about that.

Ate lunch with Jim and Karen. I'm just out of luck with both of them, as Karen with complain about inauthentic Mexican food and Jim will complain about Americanized Chinese. *sigh* Oh well. I enjoyed my meal. So far this week I've been eating very well, and I should try to keep that up. Need to buy some more oranges.

Karen's loaned me some clothes to wear out this evening, since I'm going to have sushi at Mushashino's tonight. It's a Seventeen moment, with painted toenails and girlish laughter. I don't think I've ever worn an outfit quite like this, and I feel like I'm pretending to be on of those adults you see on the television. Hah. It's grand.

I couldn't do this every time, but it occured to me the last time I painted my toenails was probably at Veronica's house in 1994. Dark shiny green. I walked home from her house in my new sandals and cut my feet up enough to leave scars. We stayed up all night listening to the Smashing Pumpkins and White Zombie.

So I'm going to be happy for the rest of the afternoon, and tonight, and in the morning. I will be, simply because I don't want to be anything else right now.

That would be the ultimate :)
