Jun. 12th, 2008 11:13 amWow, this summer is going by quickly. How have I been home for a month already? I haven't even done anything, really. I mean, I guess I'm closer to having a job than I was a month ago, but that's kind of it. And I don't even have a job yet. I turned in the reference check sheets on Monday and the guy at the interview said they'd call me after those were in, but it's now Thursday and no one's contacted me. I'm kind of concerned that they didn't even get them or they got misplaced or something, since the girl I gave them to looked a little confused about what to do with them. =/ Ugh, I really want this job. Mostly for the free movies, because there are several movies coming out this summer that I want to see in theaters, but also just because I want to be done looking for a job. I mean, I really only have 2 months left before I have to leave again, which isn't a lot of time, and I would like to actually make some money. sigh. Hopefully they'll call today.
So I have my windows open in my room since it's always the warmest or coldest room in the house, depending on whether the air conditioning is on or not, and this morning these people were delivering a bunch of gravel to my driveway since we're redoing the side yard. Anyways, they arrived at like 7 AM and it woke me up because I could hear everything really loudly due to my windows being open, which was annoying. But I went back to sleep and had a dream where I woke up at like 9 AM and did a rewatch of the first season of Farscape. Except for some reason I skipped some episodes, including The Flax and A Human Reaction, which makes no sense at all, since if I were going to skip any episodes they would definitely not be those two. But anyways, I woke up at a reasonable time later and was incredibly disoriented because I thought I had already woken up and done stuff that day. Kind of weird. But that all was mostly just to say that now I really feel like doing a Farscape rewatch. I probably won't since there are other shows I also want to rewatch which I haven't seen for longer and I want to watch more movies and read more books and other stuff and I just watched all 4 seasons very recently. But I still have a strong urge to right now. I doubt I will until next summer, at the earliest, though.
Have I mentioned that a week or two ago, I rented Batman Begins on iTunes and saw it for the first time (I know, I'm pretty sure I'm the only person who didn't see it when it first came out) and I totally adored it, and now I'm even more ridiculously excited about The Dark Knight coming out? Because I was excited before just because it looked pretty awesome and it's one of Heath Ledger's last films, but now I actually want to see it because I loved the first one so much. I hope it doesn't suck like most sequels do. But Christopher Nolan is pretty brilliant, IMO (Memento is one of my favorite movies ever), so hopefully it'll kick ass. (I'm pretty sure everyone else has already had these thoughts and I'm a little late here, but oh well.)
