I can be let out again.
Okay, enough pity party for me; things is
lookin up.
So I took care of the lice a second time, and
then I went for the art-drop in at Sanctuary and made some jewelry, and then
Rebekah took me out for a drink. So it was a pretty good day after all, even
though I started it off full of
rage.Also, I got not one but two
sources of
income.
The first is continuing the tutoring job with which I raised $500 for India in
March. I can't believe parents will pay that much to additionally-educate their
brainiac youngster, but I'm not gonna complain. The second job is babysitting a
satellite instrument that will be in our department for "testing" (do I know
what I am talking about? No.) next week. It's sweet: you just sit there all
night, knitting and writing code for your own research, and you take the
instrument's temperature every half hour. Come sunrise, you've earned yourself
a hundred bucks and can pay your rent. And that is
wicked.If you get a chance, listen to
the despair of my talented and hilarious friend Marshall , who
had the fortitude to walk away from a shitty (non-paying) job this week.
