The queen of diamonds let you down,
She was just an empty fable
The queen of hearts you say you never met
Your twisted fate has found you out
And it's fin'lly turned the tables
Stole your dreams and paid you with regret...
The universe has a weird way making you wonder about your sanity. In my undergraduate days I took a couple of psychology classes and the concept of deja vu was something I found fascinating. No so much that feeling of "I've been here before" but rather the medical theory that it is just a mis-filing of certain pieces of information.
Yesterday I wrote about Jackson Brown and Eagles. Today Doolin-Dalton / Desperado (Reprise) is on the radio.
FM radio never plays that song. I know because I never know which part to sing along with - Don Henley asking the questions or Bernie, Randy and Glen interrupting.
Inertia is an interesting thing. I am going through the motions of finishing up a Masters degree. I really couldn't care less. It isn't that important to me, just something to do.
I looked into job listings and was surprised to see that things are looking up in these parts.
A company that seemed interested in hiring me a few years ago before the crash has three jobs I could do. Easily. With comfort comes the idea that I could perhaps negotiate a part time or contractor position to get their work done.
I have a meeting with Elmhurst next week. A semi-annual. On the docket is talking about work for the bean. The worst thing that happened after she moved in to Elmhurst after 18 was her learning she can say "no". She says "no" to everything. So despite the state's best efforts to find her a job she can do - she steadfastly refuses to even cooperate with the evaluations.
The beauty of this situation is that it isn't raising my blood pressure. I'm just concerned about what happens when she graduates from high school in a couple months.
