What I’m happy about TODAY:

That I have a job (today)
That the sun is shining
Good new music in my life (the Killers, the Walkmen, Franz Ferdinand, NFG)
I’m done painting our kitchen
I had Starbucks for breakfast
That the Timberwolves won
That the Padres and Astros are in first place
That I’ll be in Mexico in 8 days
That I’ll be surfing this weekend
That I’m going to play bball at lunchtime tomorrow at work
That Tracey is perfect
That my family is excited about their future
That I have a family
That in exactly a month, I’ll be eating Polleyees breadsticks
That I’m finally going to see the Pixies play live at Lollapalooza (in LA unfortunately)
That I own a home
That Jesus loves me
Remembering ‘Nam Stevens
That I work with a guy named Igor
That Arrested Development is still going to be on TV in the fall
That California hasn’t fallen into the ocean yet
And mostly, just to be alive

And have you ever heard that song by the Grass Roots, “Two divided by love”? It’s been stuck in my head for a week now, it’s an addiction at this point.

I had an interview this morning with a bank software development company. I met with two nice ladies and things went pretty solid. I can never really tell though with interviews, unless you totally blow it, or they offer you the job on the spot, you can never really tell if they liked you or not. Now comes the waiting part, which I hate. They at least told me that they were early in the interview process and that it would be at least two weeks until they make their decision. I have to say, I don’t like interviews, but it keeps me on my toes. Hopefully I’ll get the job based on my height, which, according to my current manager, is a determining factor in why people get hired. She said that tall people are statistically more successful. I have no idea how she acquired that info, but if it gets me the job, fine with me.

For the third Wednesday in a row, Tracey and I plan to hit the farmers market tonight for dinner and a fresh look at the freaks of OB. I just found out that Phantom Planet is playing a free festival in SD in two weeks. I picked up the new NFG cd yesterday and I like it. Enjoy the rest of your hump day.

I hate the Lakers
