Local Matters

Crowd mentality, group consensus, stage IV cancer, & wars between distant countries didn't like the food and left before the music got good.

Orange Triangles Sustain Local Girl for 30 Hours in Devastating Accident

I bought a bag of candy corn today. Damn those things are disgusting. So sweet they make me cough, ah, I love them.

So I guess we've officially entered the marketing zone around Halloween then? They had other Halloween crap out at the supermarket. I never knew stuffed spiders could be so cute.

I always imagine a yearly calender is divided into zones. Each holiday marketing zone perfectly butts up against the next. Inside those zones are the holiday season zones where, say half the populations feels the holiday spirit, or agrees it's the holiday season. And within those zones are the actual holidays, or course. Here's a yearly schedule:
A= marketing zone
B= general holiday season aka excuse to eat junk and slack off
C= actual holiday
D= token day off

<A1 <B1 <C1> /B1> /A1> D <A2 <B2 <C2> /B2> /A2>

Actually I feel pretty good today, candy corn coma aside. Burn After Reading is out this weekend, the first movie release in a long time that I believe I am more excited about than Francisco. You are probably like, Is That Even Possible? I know, me too!

So yeah, the job thing sucks but I don't care at the moment. It's boring to think about. I've been reading lots of good science, philosophy, and political articles recently, and it's hard to pay attention to something so boring as job applications when so much awesome stuff is happening and being thought about in the world right now. I'm sure my period will bring renewed angst, but until then, suck it hotjobs/recruiters/jaded office managers.
