coffee!

Darn coffee guy, we are out again! I have been going through this for like a year with these people. First we get a new dude, who says, yeah I am the old guy's boss, he's out of the picture, I just didn't know how he had stuff in the system for you guys. Then the old guy is back, and tells me his boss is out of the picture. I think I had another new guy last time, I don't even know. All I know is they always say they'll be back in a month and two months later, I get people knocking on my door desperate for their buzz! Today is the second day in a row that I have called.

And there you have, one of the many exciting facets of my job.

PHISH

OK, what was the biggest event this weekend? Phish returned, duhh! I am continuously amazed at what a Big Freakin Deal this is to me and so many people I know, I mean, we weren't even in Hampton on Friday night but we were practically in tears just hearing the setlists over text. And then, there's everybody else, who is unware that there is even a reunion happening, or that they broke up in the first place (in a disastrous muddy traffic jam which left many, me included, out of the picture!). Just weird I guess, everyone's got their subcultures.

Other than that, work has been pretty busy. My poor boss was called out suddenly for a family emergency, and ended up being gone for a while and so I got to do things like take notes at a board meeting. Honestly, that was pretty interesting, and being busy at work really makes the days, and weeks, pass by! My job is nice and comfy, I like my boss and I think the work they do there is really interesting. But it can definitely get boring "administrating". The department studies cognitive and neural systems, and does some really heady work with neuroscience, network theory, psychology, math, computers... a lot of mind-brain problems and theory of learning, basically pretty interesting stuff. I am not an expert on the details of course, but I know what the powerpoints look like and I work with manuscripts and stuff, so I have some idea!

OK well if you want to get an idea, check this out, and watch the crowd. Gives me chills.
