Random Thoughts at Work

Tonight I work I had a shocking revelation: I actually like my job! I've gotten past the bullshit, have actually come to accept it. Of course there are times when I don't want to be there, but the pay is nice, and the work isn't really difficult. Plus I get to do three of my favorite things: listen to music, read (during my breaks), and think. Here are some of the thoughts I had tonight at work:
  • The beginning of "Such Great Heights" by the Postal Service feels like an epic game of ping pong between my ears.
  • I'll never understand why Sondre Lerche isn't popular.
  • I'll never understand why half the music I listen to isn't popular.
  • I really love Joy in the Morning. It reminds me of the books I loved to read in high school.
  • I should read an Agatha Christie book soon, mostly because I miss the phrase pukka sahib.
  • Cheerios are the best food ever.
  • I love my car.
  • I'm having a crisis of conscience over a piece of mail I keyed. The zip code was written 72304, and it was addressed to Conway, AZ. The street was Dave Ward. I know in my heart that the zip code should've been 72034 and the state should've been Arkansas, so I keyed it that way. Is it more right to follow the rules or key a piece of mail to the correct destination?
  • If I saw a piece of mail on my screen that was addressed to me, would it be like in the movies when someone visits themself in the future? Would my screen explode?
  • It's taken me 6 years, but I finally really love the shoes I wore today.
  • When I walked outside after work, it had rained and it felt exactly like an early spring morning in Arkansas. It even smelled the same.
