spring break is over...

...so i've been here for 3/4 of a school year and i'm still getting job offers in my email. i should take my resume off of those job hunting sites but i don't remember what my password is, and i don't feel like taking the three seconds to have it reset. i just forward them along to other people anyway. i actually have a job now - for the school year (in the library) and over the summer (texas). I'm a little worried about the texas job - it's going to be really interesting, it's definitely going to be a really good experience, but it's going to be SO HOT and so far away from everything else.


the skokos, sash and i went to see the pogues show on sunday - pogues, will e whitmore, and billy bragg. it was such an amazing show. i love will whitmore and i LOVE billy bragg- sash said i was rapt the whole time they were playing. before the pogues came on, of course the clash was playing really loudly, and sash and i had the idea to have a 'stand in the dark and listen to the clash' party. i really like the idea, except i think it should probably be a 'sit in the dark and listen to the clash party' just because standing is so tedious. and because i have a lot of experience at sitting in the dark and listening to the clash - i'm basically a pro.


every time it's mentioned how often everyone here worked as paralegals, or in law firms, or doing legal work before starting law school, i get more convinced i am in the wrong place. i mean, law school, but NEWARK is just so BORING...

Billy Bragg and Kate Nash covering the Shangri-Las:

Will Whitmore - One Man's Shame



Will Whitmore - Pine Box
(i yelled for it and he said he might not play it because it is slow and sad, but he played it anyway, which is terrific because it is an amazing song!):
