son des cinquante degrés parfaits, avec l'observation du monde

have i got some news. i accepted the job at ascap. i was sort of bugging out just b/c the timing of it all seemed kinda weird. but i had alot of people that i really respect give me some good advice to help me make up my mind. so thank you if you were one of those people. i appreciate it more than you know. and you know, if mtvU comes with an offer, then i decide about that then. but i like being in nashville i dont regret staying here. i want to be here. if God wants me to go to New York someday, He'll take me there. but right now i feel pretty confident He likes me being here (i think ashlee likes me being here too)
so i start there next tuesday. should be pretty awesome. im going to have a real honest to goodness job. with a salary and benefits and a pension plan and the whole shebang. they are even sending me on a business trip at the end of march to atlanta. ill be going for three days. there is some sort of banquet ill be attending (ive chosen the salmon over the chicken or steak entrees, i hope that proves to be a wise decision) its like all of a sudden, im gonna be a grown up or something. weird huh?

well, its almost time for the oc, so i better go. (yeah, i totally got hooked watching the dvd i got ashlee. im so lame, i know... its not even on a viacom owned station, what am i thinking?!?)


ps. ashlee is so amazing... breath taking even... stunning... captivating... heavenly... God's greatest gift to mankind... and no i am not writing this b/c she wants me too... and of course i cant forget lovely


pps. michael and i are unveiling our new name. GIRLS AND BOYS will be bringing you the best st. patrick's day party this side of the mississippi. $5 at the basement. 8pm until 3 spinning 80sindierockwonder, cocainesexjamz, and partytillyoupukeanthems. be there or be a rhombus.

Christine, viennent et se brisent sur mon plancher

man o man o man,
what has happened as of late? quite a bit.
i did not get the emi job. after cominng down to me and one other person, they decided to go with the other person. i was really glad to get the chance though. i know that God is leading me to the right place. which is what im wondering about now. i went to nyc thursday. my supervior's position is still open, which would be great. they are also trying to create a coordinator possition for affiliate relations, (read, my old internship as a paid position). new york was awesome too. it snowed, all light and fluffy. man i love the snow. i got to see everyone at mtvU. i miss that place. the new offices are pretty cool, but much more office-y, which is good and bad. they are still all great people, thats for sure. most people were surprised to see me. especially belle, i got to talk to her for a while. it was great, b/c i got to see really only that side of her that is willing to admit that she is 23 and has a life outside of work. in some ways, i want to work there if only to make sure she can stop stressing out all the time and have some more fun.
along these loose lines of a job, i was officially offered the ascap position this morning. that is really awesome, and the answer to alot of prayers. but in other ways, i had sort of already written this possibility off. im just praying all day, trying to make a decision. on the plus side, the salary is more than what they told me, id have benefits, i'd have a job, and i could stay in nashville. and it sounds silly, but i cant really say there is a down side. so why i didnt just accept, i dont know. i think its is just nice to have a day to pray everything over. and really, while it would suck to start here, then quit b/c something came up at mtvU. but if i started here, that sort of rules out mtvU. i just dont know. please pray for me. im glad that cognito group meets tonight. i just know that God will reveal some crazy stuff there, b/c he always does.
how is it that i can complain about having great opportunities in two cities i love? i should be thankful i have anything, let alone any sort of option. please just pray for me guys. and if God gives you any major revalations, please let me know. i'll keep you updated

pour un génie doux...

today is valentines, and i dont get to spend it with my darling ashlee. im really hating virago. at least i got to spend some time with ashlee last night. but this week i only have tuesday off. if i get off too late to go to the show wed night, im going to be pissed!!
but here is my plan. im just going to start getting ripped at work. if im drunk, then at least i should be able to tollerate working there. AND, if i get caught, i'll get fired. but i wont care b/c ill be durnk, and im just waiting to quit anyway. so its a win-win-win situation as far as i see it.

so the big surprise, i know you've all been waiting with bated breath. im up for three positions. my first choice, artist development at EMI here in nashville. ive already had three interviews, and its been made pretty clear that i will be offered the job. choice two, licensing at ascap. ive already been told i am the top candidate for the position. they are simply waiting for the background check to go thru. choice three, my former supervisor at mtvU has been promoted and her position is open. i essentially already did the job for months, and belle told me that carlo and lori (the people i'd would work directly for) want my official resume, and to schedule a phone interview. the only reason this is my third choice is because i would have to move to nyc immediately. which would make finishing my thesis rather difficult. but at this point i dont really care.

i think its sort of funny that i have been able to find three strong prospects. how many belmont students just end up being bank tellers or working in retail or whatever after graduation. and i've got three opportunities. i'd like to believe its simply because i am so incredibly gifted, qualified, handsome, that business. but honestly, i know its just God blessing me. i dont really get why He never lets me trip up for more than like a few days. ive just always had the feeling He's constantly preparing me for something... something big. i dont know why. again, He just pours out blessings on me again and again, i cant really look to many times that i could ever say ive had it very hard in my life. and i certainly do my best to try and mess all that up, and He wont even let me do that. i guess thats why i keep getting the feeling that something is coming up.
maybe someday ill get to lose it all and live as a hobo. that could be pretty cool. and then i could lead the other hobos to start a militia, and i will be king hobo, with an underground mansion made of boxes and discarded wood scraps in an abandoned parking garage. under this leadership, there will be a spike in the hobo stock market (where trading consists mainly of canded goods and shoes) that will embarass the nasdaq to no end. and we will usher in a golden age for the hobos, and we can finally end our war with the gypsies, and unite under a flag of peace (sewn together from old underpants and a nylon banner stolen from a churches chicken drive-thru)

but there is all the good news and everything. im going to get back to work.
