Overplayed or played out
So I logged on to yahoo to listen to my launch cast radio station, only to find out I have already listened to 800 songs this month so my free service is cut back. That's no good. So now I have to listen to the lower quality and I cant choose what songs it plays until next month. Oh well. I am listening to it now on my new headphones/microphone combo. I gave in and bought a headset at walmart on my way home from work today.
I have cut back how much I go to walmart, but not enough yet. Last year I think I went less than a handful of times from January to June then it was all out the window after that. Walmart--its a cultural icon. Made in ______ everywhere but the united states. I remember back in the day when you went to walmart to support Americas jobs, they had the proudly made in the USA stickers on just about everything. Its all been moved elsewhere now. I don't even want to get into what I think about that. Except to say I don't like it.
So I decided to get this headset so I could actually type and talk to people rather than trying to talk into a pair of headphones that I had to practically swallow for anybody to hear what I was saying. Plus they make me look more professional, sitting in front of my computer wearing my pajamas and eating microwave rice--I'm very professional.
Do you ever wonder if telemarketers have a dress code, and how stupid it must be to have a dress code for a job where you never see anybody face to face. Do you think if you had a blind boss that you would break dress code?, its interesting to think about.
today I also visited REI. I decided I am too boring. I want to get back into the outdoors stuff, I thought REI would be the place to go to find out about stuff like that. Problem is I don't really have anybody to do stuff with, I need someone that can understand compasses and jazz because, try as I might I just don't get it, and I really don't wanna get lost in the middle of nowhere. Didn't find anything but a bunch of gadgety cool stuff that I really don't need and that is way out of my price range--knives and tents and specially lined sleeping bags, water bottles and filters and carribeaners, kayaks and canoes and bikes. I could be an awesome outdoor poser though.
I decided I am not done experiencing I want to travel and see the world and do weird stuff
I think I might go to New England and live on a cranberry farm and help with the harvest. I also want to learn how to surf, raise some goats, and be a rock star. I have much to do before I get old. I better get started.
