sab: (nickels! nickels!)
[personal profile] sab
No good excuses, except that I'm sick, and I'm stuck in a dead-end job at twelve bucks an hour, that I don't have a car, that I'm undermedicated and overworked, plagued by altruism, volunteering with a SECOND non-profit to do some Katrina aid work (benefit concert at Austin City Limits!), interviewing for jobs that ask ME if I've got a couple hundred thousand to invest in their company, and, sorry, it's pro bono, at least until the '06 elections, do I go back to commercial civilization? Do I abandon the Dems before the midterms? Do I abandon New Orleans to the arthritic hands of Brownie, yer doin great?

I am SO BROKE. I have never been this broke and also had a job.

Point being: I owe you everything, internet, and you owe me nothing; I've been a lousy friend, a terrible correspondant, got no excuses except that I swear I SWEAR I miss you more than you miss me -- you just lost one little Sab; me, I lost the whole damned INTERNET.

These are some cds that were part of my collection that was stolen a couple years ago. I'm trying to rebuild. If you have and can zip any of these albums and yousendthem or something, they'd feed my mortal soul.

I've got Duende and Living With Ghosts. I'll YSI them as soon as I finish uploading Dr Who eps for Mely. (Is YSI uploading REALLY slowly for anyone else? It's taking HOURS.)

I have Patty Griffin and I think I have The Eminem Show (or rather, I know I have the MP3s on my iPod, but I'm not sure if I have the original album or if I just downloaded it, in which case it was probably lost the Great External HD Crash of 2005). But my CD collection won't be unearthed until tomorrow at the earliest - we're heading to IKEA in the morning to buy shelving units so we actually have places to put everything. All of which is to say: if you still need Patty Griffin and possibly Eminem by tomorrow night, I can probably help you out.

Have been meaning to email you - we are ensconsed in our shiny new Hollywood apartment and are (slowly) attempting to get things put together. Still must call your... boss? co-worker? about getting set up with a job - I'll do that Wednesday or Thursday when we have hopefully made this place at least somewhat livable, or at least have a reasonable expectation of walking from one end to other without tripping over things.

Well then, I would LOVE the Patty Griffin, and also we should get together. Um, next week? Friday night maybe. Call me or e-mail when you're on your feet...

We miss you and are mostly glad that you haven't dropped off the face of the earth (though that would be rather hard when we could just pop into Bron's journal and say, "How is that Sab doing, anyway?") but rather are being all humanitarian and stuff. Go you. I'm sorry for the job situation - you'll figure something out, I'm sure. At the very minimum all this altruism has to count for something in the larger scheme of things, yeah?

:( Aah, I'm sorry that things aren't better for you, hon. You're such a hard-working lass, and deserve more than you're getting....Times are pretty tough for me right now as well, so I totally empathize. I totally feel your pain, as far as not being able to be on the internet more....Anyway, yeah. I'm hear to listen, if you ever want to talk or whatever. *Hugs tight*

MISS YOU SO MUCH

I do worry about my lost little sab.

isn't the crucial point, job-wise, that ya gotta get that ther new HIP before you can quit? why don't you schedule the surgery, hit up mom and dad to help out with $$ while you convalesce, and relax for a little while with your percoset or whateverthehell they give you...

All the volunteer work; I can hardly wait to see your Karmic debt repaid. With interest.

See? Then I'm just crazy. : )

I think it looks that way because you redirected the journal.

How are you, by the way?

Ooh, Sab, btw-I was wondering if you'd like to hang out sometime soon (on a Friday or Saturday or Sunday of your choice) and I could cook and we could chat and it would be fun! IM me or email me or whatever. Hope you're doing well. I do worry!
