There and Back Again

Tomorrow is my first day out of the office! My boss came up to me at the end of work today and said i might as well tag along on a requirements gathering meeting with one of our clients tomorrow. I am glad I am kinda excited about it, because that will probably help to aleviate the boredom I will probably feel, but must never never show, as a result of getting up around 4ish in the morning, and being in meetings from 8am till 4:30 at least. But it is something new, and i am actually looking forward to it. Oh, and i have to wear my suit too.

Other news, stopped to get oil changed in my car, being the first time i haven’t done it myself. it was nice not to have to take time out of my evening to change oil. Instead I got to interact with the guy at Pep boys, and start reading a book while i was there. the book is called ‘blue like jazz’. It is a book my sis recomended to me. Let me see if i can give you a taste for it. I’ll give you the forward to the book.

I never liked jazz music because jazz music doesn’t resolve. But I was outside the Bagdad Theater in Portland one night when I saw a man playing the saxophone. I stood there for fifteen minutes, and he never opened his eyes.
After that I liked jazz music.
Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. It is as if they are showing you the way.
I used to not like God becuase God didn’t resolve. But that was before any of this happened.

As you might guess, the book is about this guy and his experiences with/without God. or so i assume, since I have only just started it. anywho, quick to read, and he don’t mince words. my kind of guy… Anyway. i have an early morning, and want to watch one more episode of FireFly before i fall asleep. going to bed now would be no help as i am not tired yet…
