this'll be a great calling in sick email: "hey, i was on the internet all night, you know how it goes, my throat is scratchy, don't want to spread it around"

Z S, Wednesday, 30 November 2011 05:41 (twelve years ago) link

god bad brains is awesome, just now catching up to this

Music is the biggest thing I miss about having a car. My music consumption went way down when I got rid of my last car 2004). Headphones on the bus or train are no good bc I miss ambient noise, plus I'm not mentally I'll enough to enjoy singing along on public transit as I would in a car.

as much as i criticize cars (and am thinking about applying for an Undriver license), there are some really nice things about it. after I broke up recently, i flew back to St. Louis and rented a car to drive around to see people, and it wasn't until about 10 minutes into the rental car journey that i realized i could scream my head off, for the first time in years. i said many bad words. it was amazing. and then i listened to music at top volume. i still dislike cars, but i do miss that outlet.

Yeh. I understand the many many problems with cars, but I never feel more at home than when I'm driving. This makes me very popular as an Ikea chauffeur. Doing that this Saturday. Also love flying - specifically taking off and landing - and airports.

yeah this is one of the things i miss about driving. one time 15 years ago (!) i was driving from mpls to pittsburgh and was *psyched* to listen to the new afghan whigs record (black love) and all its antecedents until i fully understood n/a

a great calling in sick email: "hey, i was on the internet all night, you know how it goes, my throat is scratchy, don't want to spread it around"

yeah we'll see how this goes

mookieproof, Wednesday, 30 November 2011 06:07 (twelve years ago) link

someday, that'll be a great calling in sick email. the world isn't ready for it right now

Z S, Wednesday, 30 November 2011 06:11 (twelve years ago) link

eh, they don't really want to pay me anyway so it'll be fine i'm sure

mookieproof, Wednesday, 30 November 2011 06:14 (twelve years ago) link

ZS, you should sort it out and record your Marble Madness score for Twin Galaxies. Holding a world record would be sooooooo sweet, even if it's not necessarily something you'd want to put on your CV or whatever. I keep meaning to send in a score for Civ II on the PS, but I'm scared by the whole "need to keep awake for 20 hours while I playthru" thing.

Yeah, I'm not even sure what to say except for that I hope you're both feeling better after this tough decision than worse. <3

estela, Thursday, 1 December 2011 03:07 (twelve years ago) link

abbott i'm so sorry. you had said something recently that made me think of the possibility, but i'm sad to hear it confirmed.

Z S, Thursday, 1 December 2011 03:42 (twelve years ago) link

i mean, in the end of course it's for the better. but it must be really difficult right now.

Z S, Thursday, 1 December 2011 03:45 (twelve years ago) link

Abs - you already know this but <3 and I'm here if you need to talk, obv.

this has pretty much been the most alcoholic 2 months of my life

Z S, Thursday, 1 December 2011 04:30 (twelve years ago) link

just saw abbott's post. very sorry to hear that news.

and hope all is well, zs. hope the "alcoholic" line is a jokey overstatement.
