- I got a job pulling coffees in a cafe in Kingston, and I'm enjoying it way too much. I wonder when I get to officially call myself a barista?
- I missed my good friend's birthday. When I get a chance, I'll send a package. And write a letter to another old, dear friend. And another for the first one.
- Dan's gone overseas, on a trip with his father to Spain. I'm envious, but then again I get to go sailing with my father and tell lewd jokes over a few VBs. I'll send his partner-left-behind a postcard.
- I lost a flatmate to Mongolia, so we need to start a new search. I'm wondering who the next one will be?
And I'm fascinated by the idea of a Republican government bailing out a flailing, failing capitalist economic system. Should an old broken system be propped up and supported, or should it be allowed to dissolve, even though many innocents (?) will suffer, so that a new system can be started? It will probably be a compromise of a bailout with caveats, but how does one negotiate appropriate pay for the entire company structure, when at some level the company (responsibility of CEOs) has failed?
Ach, I gotta work tomorrow and it's a long ride to the coffee-parlour.
