May. 17th, 2004 10:43 pmi attempted to shop for work clothes today. i started the whole professional-ish thing last august, so i never bothered with buying much summer stuff...
looking for khakis, i ended up with the first pair of trousers that really fit... 40% off, slightly weird but cool, they convert into capris. however, unfortunately, they fall in some odd wedge of spectrum between slate grey and lime green. please remember, my wardrobe was mostly monochrome -- blue -- for years and years. i've just recently been starting to work in wine colors and dark greens and black. oh well, at least customers should quit asking me whether i think their potential scrub sets match...
in other news, i had a fantastic weekend. while i make a decent introvert, enjoy the adventure of adjusting to a new environment, etc., there's nothing quite like walking into a room full of old chums... while i didn't get to see all the cookeville folks i would've liked to, i hadn't talked and laughed so much in a good while.
the new coffee shop in cookevegas is great... spent a couple hours there sunday morning. the k-tron seal of approval is granted...
more breaking news... there is progress on the housing front! i called up lu the other day to see if she could get referral money if we moved into her apartment complex, and it turns out that she wants to get out and move to a house for the sake of her dogs. and is willing to consider roommates! it's almost too perfect -- she works in the same part of town as dave and me, her lease is up half a month after amy deploys... we're looking as fast as we can... i'm not so sure how her two dogs will get along with chelsea the cat... but i'm excited!
oh, and the society of heathens has a webpage now. they're FINALLY making a new batch of t-shirts -- a bunch of the people who got to tntech 2+ years before me had them when i was a youngun, i was horribly jealous, and now, at last i shall be a proud owner of one. hurrah.

glad to hear your house plans seem to be progressing. i myself just signed a lease as i am moving out of the commune. ANYWAY, thanx for putting up the SOH homepage and i was wondering is someone gonna make shirts at tech or were you referring to the cafepress thinger.
btw, you remember the blessed class of afghanistan and dr. roberts would mail us chapters of his book... i was wondering do you still have that on your U drive or somesuch. i would be interested to read it again. and it has been printed but only in hard form and is $60+ dollars.... :(

Date: 2004-05-19 07:48 pm (UTC)the shirt i want for SOH is the original version one... think judson's doing a run with a non-cafe press t-shirt printing entity, so e-mail him if you're interested in that one. (if you don't have his addy, e-mail me and i'll get it to you... this is a wee bit public for handing out other people's info!)
on robertson's book, i know i have it. "where?" is the tricky part. i'm pretty sure i have a burned cd-copy somewhere, and i think it's still on my dad's hard drive as well. possibly the U:\ drive too! lemme check the other two first, though... if i find, i'll e-mail you to find out where to send big files. because getting them on gemini was not fun.
