I am a conflicted yuppie.

Avon Lake high school football beat Midview High school football. I own a house and pay taxes in Avon Lake, but I graduated from Midview. How am I supposed to feel? ARRRRGH!

I just finished watching the Sex Pistols on TV, and I realize that while their music (meaning their instrumental parts) is really not technically difficult in any way (nor is it the type of music I would ordinarily choose to listen to), they still sound a million times better than the bands who try to BE the Sex Pistols. I imagine that's because the youngsters try to take their crappy garage music too seriously, whereas the Sex Pistols are all "whatever! We're catchy! And our drummer kind of looks like a 50 year old Lance Bass! But we're still freaking cool and we smile when we play!" Take THAT, young men in girls' jeans! Maybe you should don a harlequinesque shirt and grin in the face of 4/4 time instead of hiding behind your long bangs/noveau mullet.

Also, on Friday, while I was working on my floor (because my desk was covered in files) I got a call from my boss. Thinking he had a problem with the Court and needed something immediately, I answered while trying to clear the debris from off my keyboard. Turns out he just wanted to talk CELEBRITY GOSSIP for five minutes. Is this normal? Do 34 year old men routinely call their assistants to discuss Britney Spears and to compare who spends what on insurance? Regardless, it was the high point of my day. Sometimes I really love my job.
