P.S. Daisy, I hope I pronounced your name right!
Sorry about the bad quality video. I'm not used to making them.

It will happen soon

For a long time, my favorite thing in Chicago was the painted window on a certain storefront underneath the Western brown line station: "Chubby Wieners...It Will Happen Soon!" It just had this very portentious feel about it. I know they used this somewhat baroque phrasing to avoid telling us that a wiener would be coming, but that never lessened my delight. I loved how heavy the announcement seemed, how certain: it WILL happen, and SOON.

I'm thinking about the Chubby Wieners sign this week, because things in my life are reaching the It Will Happen Soon point. My options are opening up, change is on the way; could be, who knows. It kicked off three days ago when the job I put in for, and about which I am still reluctant to speak, called me about an interview. So I'm busting down to New York on Tuesday night for a Wednesday afternoon interview with the head of the sales department and the head of HR. I am now an official candidate for this position, and I have the three-page job application form and background check authorization paperwork to prove it.

Self Portraits

Katelan Foisy — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 20:39:02 -0400

I'm interested to know if anyone takes portraits of themselves. How do you set the scene? What do you want to convey? Or are you just pissing away time? Here are a few of mine. Feel free to comment with your own.

Going Back To Brooklyn

CrackerHammer — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 15:40:38 -0400

Last Wednesday, my friend Sam calls me around two in the afternoon. He wants me to drive up to Brooklyn with him for a Stellastarr show. Now, Sam and I are both in our early 30's. We both have full-time jobs, own homes, and are raising kids. Which means it's been a while since either of us has driven to Brooklyn on a moment's notice, on a work night, to catch a show. We both thought it was a bad idea, but we were both giddy with the fun of it.

So we do it. My wife Erica and her friend Becky come with us. We leave our house about 7PM. The show is at 8:30PM. It takes two hours to get to Brooklyn from my house.

So I can blog on PunkPlanet?

I had no idea. Instead I was just reading about stuff and then I googled my name and forgot about my account so I came here and found out I can blog! Awesome.

Anyway, check out my daily blog. I'll be around.
Also, I just recently picked up an advanced copy of this band I Set My Friends On Fire cd. Anyone hear of them? What do you think?

Eating contests I could win

Nora Rocket — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 12:17:32 -0400

I could eat the most:
* twizzlers
* maki-sushi
* Kraft Macaroni and Cheez
* Wheat Thins
* mini crab cakes
* almond roca

I say this not out of pride, just to note that I could eat so fucking much of the above stuffs.

In other news, I am totally unhappy with my job, but finally in a position to DO something about it. Operation 2009: Best Year Evar has a few key components, and one of them is a new job. I am looking now, with the goal of *the* perfect job in 4-8 months. It usually takes me about 6 to get something that works well enough. I can be a little laid back here in Q4 of 2008, and apply only for the most attractive positions, as I am looking in New York and will move there whenever I get the job. I will move alone if I get a Dream Job before January, which is when my partner can leave the city, but it would be easier to move as a family. So, until November or so, I will only apply for jobs of choice; as the move date approaches, I will apply for jobs of relative desperation. I just put in for something awesome, about which I will say no more, for fear of jinxing a motherfucker.
