Gooey explain to me your nefarious interstate system. I spent two hours in gridlock today.
you drive
sometimes you move and get where you are going
(you're here? awesome! did you get moved in already?)
I'm moving in now. Went to South H for Ikea which was out of stock on my favorite things. Sad face. Got stuck in traffic. Took my mom to visit her company's sister office and got stuck on 610 for two hours. Worst traffic next to d.c. But I'm learning how to be aggressive and not let giant truck racers run me over. Galveston is beautiful. The great irony is that I will spend billions of hours in a lab and not outside but I love the landscape and environment!
so i logged onto my school's portal. apparently when i became a work-study employee, they mis-sorted my privileged access. i have like, the real-employee access tabs on my page. i can see personal data. sabbatical reasons. professorial procedures. i can make web announcements to 34,000 students.

i am... i am delirious with power.
petrified by the choices.
I had that power over the library system.
In fact, knowing how their IT system works I probably still do...

I'm good! Some friends and I launched a new project that I'm pretty excited about, and I might be getting interviewed in the local hipster paper about it, and I got a nice note last night from one of my favorite crime novelists about, of all things, an RPG I designed earlier this year that he really liked. I'm in a good mood.
that's awesome, jake! sounds like things are looking up for you. I assume you're still in KC. do you have regular work these days?
what sort of project? is it of the comic book nature?
It is, yeah. I'm doing a webcomic with an artist friend. I've been trying to get him to draw shit for years and I guess it finally clicked. Another friend of ours is handling the website. It's fun. I think our sense of humor is decidedly...niche, and I have no illusions about our earnings potential, but when we build up a decent-sized body of work I'll have something I can actually show my friends in the for-real comic business to maybe parlay into a grown-up job doing something I actually want to do.
But we might be getting interviewed as "local artists" so that is pretty cool in a look ma, I'm in the papers sort of way.
I have an irregular income but stuff is stable. I'm not worried about keeping the lights on all the time anymore.

I love going in to systems where I'm supposed to have nominal access, and discovering I have demi-god access.

Reading that I just realized I've had two moths fly into my ears.
Once in 2005 in a story very similar to DK's but with more panic and less adequate medical care and once sophomore year of college.
All day long I kept hearing something weird in my ear, a rustling and my ear would twitch oddly and was quite itchy. I thought nothing of it and went on with my day, but it kept getting more and more noticeable. I finally get home and go to the bathroom and start cleaning my ears, as per my routine, and hear a squish and the twitching goes off like Michael J. Fox and I start jumping around in the bathroom. I grab some peroxide or saline or something, I can't remember now, and pour it in my ear.
I flip my head over the sink and there, flopping helplessly in the porcelain as it drifts down toward the drain is a fucking moth.
So thanks, @Donkey Kong for dredging up that repressed memory.
@Riemann maybe tomorrow. Going to just watch more venture bros tonight and then pass out for work. Also I grabbed Modern Times during the steam sale. It is amazing, my screen shots just don't want to unload.

Yeah, I know.

Everytime you have the urge to do that, watch a YouTube video.
Gangnam Style will suffice. Or maybe this one.

I do not like star wars
but 1:54 of Gangnam style is enough to get me by.
