so i've been recruited to write articles for my friend's new webzine, which we(jarrod, andy, and i) have decided to call "the shark ethic" or something like that. i got it out of a hunter s thompson novel when he refers to the tendency to attack the wounded.we're big on clever ideas and whatnot, now we'll see if we have anything to say. so i'm finally getting my wish to work fulltime at little c's. and boy it's true you should be careful what you wish for, cuz it just might fuck you in the ass. i'm scheduled 32 hours this week. i'm gonna want to kill myself around, say, thursday probly. but let's do a little math, shall we? ok, just the hours alone i'm gonna make $192. now let's say i take, oh, 8 deliveries a day right? well that equals into 4 dollars of commission per day. 5 days X $4 = 20 dollars of commission. now let's say i have decent tip days this week, all week. that's about 15 dollars a night. well $15 X 5 days = 75 dollars. that's take home. spending cash. booyah. so alltogether i will make, hypothetically, 287 dollars this week. how ya like that? and our paychecks are biweekly. which means my next check MIGHT be 574 bones. oh that damned money, it's so inviting. and you now i'm just gonna blow it on cds, dvds and illegal substances. oh well. so tonight as i neared the end of a grueling Monday Madness(5 dollar large pizza special) i got this huge pain right above my groinal area. that's an odd place to get a big pain. so i'm limping around the store holding it and my manager asks what's wrong. "i hurt" she asks me if i still have an appendix, and i do, so she tells me that it might be that. well thanx a lot! i really need to worry about that. but i went home and did the test she told me to do to see if i have it where you lift your right leg into the air from a lying down position. and the pain has since then went away. but will it return? time will tell so meatloaf and jimmy eat world are playing in some town called Allentown, PA in august. but meatloaf tickets alone are 32 dollars. no thank you, i'ma just settle for the warped tour. w00t. i have seats still open in my car for that. so far i have bobby down to go. amie says she can't go that far without being able to drive. so whatever. her and joe either go or they don't. i wish they would. music:ozark mountain daredevils, slickshoes, the starting line, sublime, element 101
