We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

I found out last week that everyone at our organization got to go home a couple hours early the Friday before the 4th of July, and that somehow word didn't make it out to our office (or the other satellite office) and we just worked a normal full day.
Randomly I recalled that this morning and shared the info with a couple co-workers, and as we were having this conversation our director called and let us know about the error and said we could leave early today.
Woke up this morning to an email from Bonnaroo saying I won two GA tickets and a car pass!!!!! Excited to know I'll be there for sure after missing last year. Any lineup is worth free!
I'm mostly excited about it because not only did I get to work alongside 3 engineers (something very different than what I've done in grad school), but our project revolved around finding a way to innovate the vinyl record industry! (which is v relevant to this place)
we ended up creating a DIY record cutter that attaches to an existing record player that can cut custom vinyl (think of it along the lines of a new way to make a mixtape). the information available out there currently on how to do this is incredibly minimal, and the products that you can find are wayyyy expensive - so we found a new way to make it work.
I took two summer classes this year. I worked very hard in these classes in addition to work, working on my thesis, and helping out the fam.
I was heartbroken to discover I got a D in one of my classes. My first college D. I emailed my professor and he FINALLY got back to me. It turns out he FORGOT to grade my final paper (he lost it). That D is now a B and I am so relieved!

Wow! Glad that got cleared up for you! Whew!!!
IKR? I was so bummed, this really lifted my spirits. That's so scary though, what difference that one mistake made. 😅

If you guys read my posts in the GRRRRR thread a bit ago you'd know that some people in my life are snakes. Anyway, more snakes came out and snaked.
BUT today I heard back from a paid internship at a law firm downtown. I have an interview in a few hours. Getting this would allow me to leave my salon job and also let me get another night hosting trivia. So, when life gives you snakes, get more jobs and make money so you can step on those snakes with some Yeezys.

an attractive girl with a buzzcut who was listening to the new frank album at the same time as me in the elevator asked me for MY number today. philadelphia is treating me well.
I've fallen in love. She's wonderful and so good to me.
I think I'm going to like my second job. It's just food service at the nearby college's dining hall, but it entails little responsibility and I get to be just a regular employee who can actually be friends and hang out with his coworkers. I'm a manager at my other job and it can be rather socially isolating, so this is a nice change. And I get free food each shift! Having five meals a week paid for is a wonderful perk.
The second job was mainly going to be used to pay off debt (and it probably still should be), but I've decided instead to join the lady on a month-long cross-country road trip next year. As I get older I'm going to have less and less opportunities to do these sort of things, and I've never been on a real adventure like that. The only thing that could throw a wrench into it is that I'll be going to Coachella if I really like the lineup, in which case I might just do half the trip with her. That might work out better anyway because as it stands we'd probably be missing Bonnaroo, which I don't really want to do. But we'll see. Either way, I like having a goal to work towards.
I've been dealing with this weird allergic-reaction-that's-not-actually-an-allergic-reaction for the past two and a half weeks, and I'm finally on a cocktail of medicine that keeps my symptoms at bay. It's been five days without a random part of my body swelling to the high heavens, which is a new record since this started. I'm a little nervous that things will flare up again as I start to go off the steroids, but for right now I have hope.
Since the whole allergy thing started, I've decreased my nicotine consumption by a legit 95%. Just a few puffs from a vape a couple times a day.
I haven't smoked weed in the past two and a half weeks either, which is the longest I've gone without smoking in about three years or so. It might just be the prednisone that's making me feel "up", but my energy levels are higher and my anxiety levels are way down.
It's weird. By the end of the week I'll have worked 24 out of the past 27 days, with the three days off being spent in the hospital/recovery, but I'm not even really stressed. As long as the health stuff doesn't rear it's head, I'm in a good place. Yeah, I'll be working a lot more than I was before, and my opportunities to do fun things are greatly diminished due to a lack of time, but future-Jaz is going to reap some wonderful rewards. After a few weeks of working 60+ hour weeks I might feel differently, but right now, things are alright. Good, even. I'm thankful.

I skipped a month long road trip with my friends after college in order to get a real job, and while that was the responsible adult thing, I get some pangs or regret sometimes.
When I was younger I had bad asthma flair ups and would be put on prednisone. That stuff made my heart race and I felt like a super hero.

i got a phone call at 3am yesterday that my sister's water broke and rushed to the hospital. she was a champ and toughed it out through 13-14 hours of labor and my nephew was born in the afternoon! he is absolutely perfect and i can't stop smiling and crying when i think about it.
