today, my mother inquired as to whether or not i ever got bored being jobless. she wonders what i do with my time and whether doing a whole lot of nothing is healthy.
i had to explain that my life in milwaukee, jobless as it may be, is anything but boring.
take yesterday for example. i awoke to phoebe, my new best gal pal, meowing for some food. feeding phoebe is a job onto itself. next i prepared for my 6th and final interview with Rishi Tea (i finally got the job) and after two cups of delicious tea and an hour of being grilled by the very handsome tea buyer/photographer extraordinare, i went and met bob, adam and friends at comet where i was entertained by an adorable 7 month baby boy. playing with babies is always a good thing because i then realize how having one should nowhere be in my immediate future.
two cups of coffee later, loeb and i embarked on a short, unsuccessful, but ever so hilarious mission to find a record player (if you know loeb, you also know there is never a dull moment to be had).
next, meet mike at bradford beach for nachos and more bob time. at this point in my day, the caffine had really got to me and upon talking nonsense a mile a minute, mike was soon on the floor, cheese and nacho chunks spilling out from the space where his tooth once was, relaying between fits of laughter my insanity. what a sight.
come home for more cat time and some fiddling with my lap steel. tuna salad for dinner and a bike ride over to outpost for treats where i ran into faythe. did i mention i love where i live? later in the evening, i made bob watch north shore (that's an impressive three viewings in one week for me) and with the sweetest dreams of turtle and howlies and the ocean, i slumbered off to dreamland.
i doubt i'll be leaving this city anytime soon.
