It is late and I should go to bed but I had to write. I was sitting here innocently watching my internet television when I heard my landlord drunkenly scream a vicious tirade to all our neighbors - telling them to fuck themselves and to stop complaining about him or his dog. If any of you have met Tony the hell hound - you know why the neighbors complain. He invited them all to come and suck his dick until it ran dry (I thought that was friendly) then he screamed (slurred) if they want to come kill his dog, just come and kill him and lots more fucks. It was pretty scary.
On a happier note I got the teaching job at the Hebrew Day school today. The pay stinks - worse than my first year at sweethome, but it is steady pay and full benefits and 1/2 days on Fridays. With all the vacation time it has to be worth it. I will make money another way. I am not sure how right now, but it will come. They want me to go there tomorrow and sign a contract, but I don't know how I am going to get there with work - since I got the Hallmark channel to let me leave early today. I will see if they can fax it. I knew that private schools didn't pay well but it still pays over 10k more than any entertainment job - even the better ones - and those dont have benefits or vacation. I think I am making the better choice because it is allowing me to have a stable base from which I can create a real life for myself - a home. Wow that whole landlord thing really freaked me out. I hate when people fly off the handle and threaten violence. gee- wonder why.
Oh yeah - the Sabres lost tonight. Getting the job put sports into perspective for me....there is so much more to life than having a championship team. Why is it so difficult for Buffalo to go the distance? It is because we want it so badly - we have all deluded ourselves into thinking that we need it - in order to prove ourselves worthy to the rest of the nation. I overheard someone at the bar the other day actually say that if Buffalo won the Stanley Cup it would improve our economy and revitalize the city. We are all deluded. It is just a game. Now get rid of the graft and the dirty politicians and the nepotism...well then we may just have some civic healing.
Getting off my soapbox now.
I could tell you a cracky story but I am going to refrain. Time to dream of days when I will be able to pay my bills and my paychecks are direct deposit.
Na-na

I bet your evret will pick up with this job!
I agree about the sabres and its impact on the city. I understand it is exciting, but when people start talking about how the city will be devastated unless they win the stanley cup, something is very wrong. It is a game! if we will , will it make all the troubles go away? will people start beating their kids and wives if we lose? it doesn't make sense. We should be happy we got that presidents trophy or whatever, and get on with our lives! it is warm and beautiful in buffalo - lets get out from watching tv and get on our bikes and in our parks and enjoy buffalo for what we've got!!
