The reunion was... interesting.
My brother put it correctly: most of these people strive to be average but we go for something unique. Everybody there had the same story. Generic job, generic wife/husband, generic house... esentially, a generic life. Which I guess is why I stood out so much. I told a couple of people what my plans were and word traveled fast. Once I got half way around, people already heard that I am going to be a full-time musician.
Some of the people I knew fairly well were trying to hook me up with a girl who I probably said 2 words to in high school. Everything was going well but was shot down at the last minute because she didn't know me that well and that I was "scary". Maybe I shouldn't have came in the white panel van with "free puppies and candy" written on the side. I gave my number to her friends so I might get a call this week... probably not though.
In other fun news, today is my one day of this week and guess what I get to do... fix another broken water pipe. I fucking hate this place!!! AT least I can do it now in like 5 minutes because I have done it soooo much.

Ha! It's actually a pen with a little crystal ball at the end and when you push this little button on it, the thing lights up like a disco ball. The same gizmo makes an appearance in the "smell something" picture but Alex has it stuffed inside her shirt.

I've been seasonally unemployed twice. I can also do it blindfolded. I appreciate the hint but I'm already down with that page. It's just that I actually technically got "fired" this time so they're being assholes and doing interviews and blah blah blah.
