Cut Copy, Damn Arms, and other awesomeness
by Jon on Nov.23, 2008, under Music
Ok so I was just checking out one of my favorite blogs and I came across this hot little remix by Damn Arms of Far and Away by Australian electro-rockers Cut Copy. If you enjoy either bands this track is worth checking out.
In other news, I just scored the new Miami Horror EP Bravado and let me tell you, it’s one hot little package. He’s got a couple songs available for streaming at his myspace so feel free to give them a listen.

Bummer

It’s been a hot minute since my last updade I see. It seems like the world is plotting against me to keep from posting. A lot has happened since my last post but I’ll just keep this brief. I got into another car accident a couple weeks ago just after purchacing a used car that was perfect for me. I’m devastated. Now I have to deal with not one but two seperate insurance companies for their own sets of claims. It’s stress city here and I still have work and school to keep up with. I really just need my life to chill the fuck out for a minute so I can catch my breath.
Of Broken Computers and Job Stress
by Jon on Jul.26, 2008, under Work
I’ve had a stressful couple weeks. My iMac is having issues with its power supply so I can no longer boot into OS X. I’m way behind on my emails and forum lurking. The problems with my computer pales in comparison to my work issues. I have been working at my job for almost a year and pretty much know how the place works. We recently hired a couple more guys to help ease the load when we are busy. First of all, they hired them into full time positions, which I wasn’t even offered, and they kiss MAJOR ass. I gave up trying to kiss ass a long time ago and have ceased to pretend that huge mistakes my boss makes are ok. The last few weeks I’ve had a growing sense of unease whenever I show up to work. Every assignment I get feels like a trap. This all came to a head earlier this week when I was informed that I would not be working on Thursday and only a half day on friday. No discussion and oddly enough he didn’t want to tell me the reason. I asked and he listed a bunch of stuff that a collegue had done, but nothing I did. It was only me and my other collegue who had their hours cut and not the new guys. I’m going to file some complaints with the general manager because you would think that I would have some sort of seniority.
Stress city.
Well hey there

First post to the new blog. Gonna spruce things up around here in the next couple days after I get a good night’s rest. This weekend has been fucking nuts. Last night, I was up until well after 4 in the morning working on powerpoints for a friend. Not gonna be doing that again in a hurry.
