A halo opposite the sun

And though I stare into the sun and my eyes become blinded and closed, still I see the light.

Shit, I didn't get the UoP job. My mom got a lead on another job possibility while at a new years party. It pays less, it would be pretty boring, and it would do nothing for my short or long-term career ambitions, but at least it'd keep me afloat.... assuming I have any better luck getting that job than the others I've applied for.

Oh, yeah, and on new years, my mom called and said that she didn't think we'd like the party she was at. She's usually the type to try to talk us into something no matter what so the fact that she would even admit that we wouldn't like it meant we definitely wouldn't. So, my brother, little sister, and I stayed home watching TV. Eventually my brother fell asleep on the couch, my sister was looking at clothes on the computer, and nothing good was on TV so at 11:30PM I just said fuck it and went to sleep. I woke up at 12:03, saw the clock, and went back to sleep. My brother apparently woke up at 11:55 only to discover that we don't even get the channel with the ball drop, so he just went back to sleep too. Aren't our lives great?

Fuck 2008.
