i guess i should blog.

it's rainy.

i guess i want to write my own ukulele songs, but how serious can one be while playing the ukulele? i mean, i can act serious, but it ends up being funny.

topics that come to mind when thinking about writing music for the ukulele turn out to be songs that sound like they should be for children. i could write about self-mutilation, and if i played it with the uke, it would probably end up on Kidz Bop 30.

anyways.

the pneumonia seems to be sticking around slightly. one of my coworkers is now saying that she had pneumonia, and it didn't completely stop having effects on her for an entire year. fuck this game. lung transplant, please.

anyways.

work is getting on my nerves, slightly. interest rates suck. now when i have a conversation with a customer about the interest rates, i just agree with them about everything. this is a conversation i might've had about two months ago:

customer: "my CD has come mature. what do you have?"
me: "our CDs are paying 1.00% for 12 months."
customer: "that is so low!"
me: "well the fed dropped their rates, and we base our directly off our what we can borrow money from them at. we also just raised about $700 million in a stock conversion, so corporate isn't looking to focus on CD money right now."
customer: "oh okay. i'll take a check."

this is what that conversation would go like now.

customer: "my CD has come mature. what do you have?"
me: "our CDs are paying 1.00% for 12 months."
customer: "that is so low!"
me: "yeah, it is."
customer: "just a year ago i was getting 2.50%!"
me: "yeah, you were."
customer: "that's a shame. this bank used to have the most competitive rates!"
me: "yeah, we did."
customer: "can't you do anything about the rates?"
me: "no, i can't."
customer: "oh okay. i'll take a check."

of course you will.

i should just have checks ready for people, so they can just come in, and i can write their name in, and just sign and hand it to them. done.

Haha. You WOULD think of pokemon!
and I didn't get the wings. =/
It would be too messy for a sales meeting.

Oh, and you can make a song for the Hundo and Garby thing we were going to do but never finished.
*Ahem*
Just like the other shirt designs that still need to go up
*AHEM!!!*

Despite the fact that it wouldn't be sad...I still think you should write a song about self-mutilation and play it on the uke. There's something about that combination that sounds gloriously ironic.

Hey, uke songs can be serious. IZ wasn't all fun and games with his music.

The money business sucks.

If it didn't have such a crucial role in how I live and enjoy life, I'd forget it altogether. But everyone wants their money!...

Don't worry, I think Silver is the only one who commented who has an idea about what I'm talking about.

re: comment
Actually, when he pulled me over, he made a comment like, "Your windows look really dark," or something and got out his tint-analyzer-tool-thing. I had to roll up my window a little bit (because it was down) so the thing could be placed on it, and measured it that way?... I don't really know how it worked. Some schnazzy gadget.
