Yay!!!!!!
So now I can go in any day of the week to work in my scientific abbatoir, my beautiful necropsy lab (though since it is summer and sunny and hot, probably just going to stick to labeling and curating mammal bones that are already cleaned up) and de-flesh the poor roadkill that park rangers bring me. I feel like a zoologist Bones, with a hapless, less handsome geologist partner Booth.
So no-one has ever failed the test. Whatever. I've still completed 215 hours to date of volunteer work and have learned masses about paleo stuff, not to mention getting that awesome exclusive tour in the back rooms of the American Museum of Natural History with this guy and handling all kinds of really awesome bones. It just makes my little heart blacker!
Note: Someone asked me if I was a suicide girl, someone else asked me what I was... I just said alt whatev because I'm very low maintenance most of the time to be stereotypical goth. Obviously, not a SG either. I had a mohawk and forgot about that kind of effect on the older generation - anyone so inclined to think ill of it kept their mouths shut and their faces clear - but I had already made my goofy, smiling impression long before anyway.
I read about targeted attacks on alt people, especially goths since thats probably where I get most of my influences, like here where some horrid things are done to goths. I wonder if having my practical, everyday, simple black on black has saved me from much of this? Yes I have short black hair and 14 visible piercings, but when that is toned down with plain black or pinstriped pants, flip flops, and some sort of black shirt, I suppose I blend pretty well. California is pretty liberal anyway, but that whole "California casual" has a huge effect on me. Wonder if the scene around here is like that too? LA has some great clubs that I've visited infrequently, and they are waaay more industrial, cyber, stompy than what I saw of SF's more romantic looks. What I saw of Portland seemed super casual but I think thats because it was a show, not exclusively goth.
Unintentionally went to two shows from VNV Nation's latest tour (last year) in the US - Portland and San Diego. I would have still gone to both even if I had realized beforehand (what a durp, of course it was the same tour) but I was amused at myself. Portland seemed very casual but mostly all black, perhaps because VNV isn't completely goth and more industrial/electro? The San Diego show was even more casual - probably half the crowd was dressed normal or scene or something, the other half in various degrees of dark.
Wow. Started with fossils, moved on to prejudice, and into what little I know of my local goth scenes to VNV Nation shows.
Definitely enough babble for today.
Remember: Be a cheap drunk and cut back on the sleep!
Another study suggested that performance begins to degrade after 16 hours awake, and 21 hours awake was equivalent to a blood alcohol content of .08 percent, which is theblood alcohol limit for drunk driving in Canada, the U.S., and the U.KTime to go to work!
I've had six hours of sleep in the last five days.
