Just Some Quick Thoughts Before I Go to Sleep
My grandmother and I had another little bonding moment tonight. We were watching the news broadcast from Korea. Of course the coverage was on the impeachment of President Roh and the protests accompanying it. We’re both really sad at what’s happening especially since democracy in South Korea is only 16 years old. We both see it as a part of the rise of the right wing governments in the world. Hopefully the Constitutional Court will listen to not only the people of South Korea but also take heed to what happened in Spain this weekend.
I can go into the specifics of the impeachment, but that would bore most people to tears. Let me just say that when Koreans get a hold of anything, we take it to the X-treme (yes, with a capital “X”).
Ok. I spent way too much time watching the videos on margaretcho.com. G’night.
Spain and the Fruits of Conquest
My hats off to Spain. The voters just ousted the conservative Popular Party in the general election and gave the Socialist Party the overwhelming majority. It looks like the voters linked Prime Minister’s Jose Maria Aznar’s support of Bush’s conquest of Iraq to the bombings that happened on Thursday. On a side note, the Chicago Tribune made an oopsie. Hehhehee
Last night, I went and saw The Manifolds play. Although klikitak expected to be on first, they were on last which was all right. I really enjoyed Limited Express, Days End and Experimental Dental School. It’s the second time I’ve seen EDS, and I they are really good. Think of carnival-esque music mixed with no-fi bursts.
Nothing else to report here. I’ll just sit here and wait for poo to happen.
Celebrate The Old Queen!!!!!
A scream swept across a dusty field packed with teenagers bristling with black leather, chains and tortured hair. “Prohibit work; prohibit pay,” was the cry. “People are dying.” – SF Chronicle, August 28, 1985
It is time to celebrate my 25th birthday.
I know I said that I would be mailing out invitations, but school got in the way of that shit. So deal. Spread the word like the herpes virus!

Before I launch into my rant, I have to say this: dgenerator is right. It is the season to listen to the Pixies. It sparked Tuesday when I was listening to KXLU. They played Doolittle in its entirety. Mmmmm. Pixies goodness.
Now…
It looks like we’ll be seeing a new PJ Harvey album this summer. Excuse me while I salivate for the next half hour. It’s not official, but knowing that something is imminent makes my heart beat that much faster.
Nothing much to report here. I can’t wait for the weekend so I can do insane amounts of nothing. That’s it.
I got in to find this email from our CFO:
Subject: FW: PO with Purchase Account 64999
If your name is listed in the attached file you have created a PO and charged 64999-Unidentified Purchase.
Effective immediately this account is not to be used if you don’t know where to charge something please contact James for a list of account numbers. Then if your still not sure contact Mike Tutko.
Any questions contact me directly. We will be monitoring this account.
In the span of 30 minutes, I’ve had six calls from people freaking out. I’ve had to explain to them the basic fundamentals of purchasing and how it relates to accounting. I then had to tell them the background to this problem and what they should do to solve it. This is turning out to be a lovely Wednesday.
If anyone happens to see my dead carcass hanging, can you please be a dear and clean the poo? Nothing is more tasteless than a dead guy who has poo in his pants. Thanks!
