The Bedroom Philosopher – New Media
I work in New Media
I’m pretty damned important
Don’t ask me to explain what I do…
It’s bizarre to think that a bit over a year ago, I was moaning about being unemployed and sinking into murky ennui. I remember those days – endless hours playing free MMORPGs, getting inebriated to stave off the boredom, going without eating because going grocery shopping seemed like too much effort.
Nowadays I am very, very busy.
I am so busy that I’ve had to say, “Sorry, I can’t make it to that thing because I’m too busy.”
I’m so busy that I have a touchscreen phone and use it for things other than playing Angry Birds.
I’m so busy I downloaded a To-Do List app on my phone.
I’m so busy I’ve actually received e-mails that aren’t spam or all those e-mail newsletters I subscribed to ages ago because I liked getting e-mail. NOW I GET TOO MANY.
I’m so busy I actually need one of those day-per-page diaries because I would fill up all the pages.
I’m so busy I may soon get one of those hands free devices that all the busy people have, who look like they’re insane and negotiating business deals with imaginary people but in reality they’re too busy to even hold a phone to their ear. That shit takes time! Don’t you know how busy they are?!
So what the eff have I been doing that’s so busy? LET ME TELL YOU:
- Studying at SAE and doing assignments such as mixing rubbish covers of U2 songs.
- Organising my very first gig. DORK CLUB at The Basement 243, a party for the dorky and dorky at heart. It’s this Saturday. You should come, because where else are you going to wear your bedazzled bumbag?
Did you know that I used to want to be a graphic designer? LOL.
- Writing indie reviews for Rave Magazine again. I’m in this week’s issue.
- Although I’m not doing a 4ZZZ show anymore, I still help out from time to time. I recently interviewed Peter Freestone, who had the extremely amazing job of being Freddie Mercury’s personal assistant. It was aired on Not Quit Enough Rope this morning and you can have a listen on my Audio page.
- Forcing myself to exercise AND calm down by purchasing a bicycle and trying out yoga. I started writing a blog post about that, but I haven’t finished it because I’ve been TOO BUSY.
- Taking care of my pet mice. Look, they are very cute.
They look very adorable here, sharing a lettuce leaf, but I assure you the big one on the right is actually stealing it from the little one on the left. Mischievous little creatures.
I still don’t have an excellent job, piles of money or my own fragrance line (Smellie, for Women who Are Sweaty and Gross) yet, but it’s pretty good having stuff to do anyway.
Now I must go get party supplies for DORK CLUB and purchase pants to wear to yoga. Toodle-oo.
