Radiohead

I've been in a pretty big phase as of late, listening to "Pablo Honey" repeatedly. This morning I found out about the pre-sale tickets going on sale this Friday. I really hope I'm able to get tickets, they're one of the few bands I really care about going to see.  Last time I saw them at the Hollywood Bowl right after Hail to the Thief was released (2003- seems much longer ago), and it was an amazing set. Not to mention this time they're performing with Liars, which is going to doubly awesome.

Work

Work is hard, retirement sounds good. It's unfortunate that you just can't do whatever you feel like doing in this  life. Who decided that? Since I can't do whatever I want whenever I feel like it, nursing is pretty cool as a career. There is so much to learn in the process of doing things and the way operations work at the hospital; it's hard, constant work for 12 hours/day, but the time flies by, and most of the people I work with are aight and fun to talk with.

A Resurgence?

I just finished the book, "The Kite Runner" today. Despite it's name, it's less about kites that you might think. Actually, the story takes place from pre-Russian invasion Afghanistan to the near-present, and revolves around the story of a boy, his father, their servants, their response to the calamity following the Afghanistan revolution/Russian invasion. Plot twists abound, and there are a lot of interesting themes about morals and parental acceptance. It was really an amazing story throughout, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Hurry up and read it so we can chit-chat.
