The Unforgiving Minute

It’s a busy week for me, what with starting the new jorb and a full load of classes. I have to be at work at 8 AM every day, which means getting up early in the morning like the rest of you filthy daywalkers. Horrible, I tell you. Fortunately my new cow-orkers range from tolerable to flat-out awesome. And I get to wear jeans and a T-shirt to work. And I’m making more per hour than ever before (though not for as many hours as I’d like). So I can’t really bitch too much.

Anyways, blogging will be a bit light until my daily routine settles down.

Oh, and Ernunnos reminded me that today is David Bowie’s birthday; I’ve had Station to Station on repeat play in his honor. I’m not really that big a Bowie fan; he absolutely butchered the original mix of Raw Power and most of his solo work is a little too, well, fruity for my taste. But he did drag Iggy out of the gutter and help him make The Idiot and Lust for Life, so for that he has my gratitude.

Here’s Bowie and Iggy appearing on Dinah “See the USA in your Chevrolet” Shore’s TV show in ’77. The drummer and bass player are Hunt and Tony Sales, sons of Soupy Sales. Strange but true.
