I'm starting to worry about this job. I feel kind of bad, since Stirling only seems to be able to point out my flaws and reasons I shouldn't be on the project (or even in New Mexico, for that matter). I mean, I'm sure he's trying to help (actually, there's a really neat story to go along with that about how the nut on a propane tank appliance is like a neutrino), but it's really disheartening, especially when I know he's right. I don't know what I need to know. In fact, the only time I felt useful while he was there was doing janitorial work, like sweeping up the site or laying down oil-absorbant when the piping ruptured. I don't want to be a janitor for the rest of my life, nor do I want to be a grunt, but it seems like those are the only jobs I'm even suited enough to go into. :/

No short fiction returned today. No assignments given in regards to the creative non-fiction. Today's been just really depressing, all in all.

And, because it's just such a cool idea (Stolen from its originator, kanlyven):

Reply to this with any songs that remind you of me, no matter when, not matter what, then post this in your journal and find out what songs you remind others of. If your lucky you'll end up with a soundtrack long enough to listen to for hours, just to remind you of all your friends.

Okay, upon reflection and listening to music I had forgotten I even had, I feel much better now. Yeah, I'm still kind of upset, but I guess all I have to do is do as he says, and do it perfectly the first time. I think I can handle that.

As for the music: I had completely forgotten I had written a few songs back in high school and my first year here. I can no longer use the program I had used then (I've lost the authentification codes, and when I reformatted my computer, that all went away), but it was still nice to have those memories back. (See, when I talk about having memory loss, I'm not shitting around. Gee, I wonder why it's so difficult for me to remember what happened to me as a dragon, if I can barely remember something so important as that from *this* life...)

ANYWAY, I sidetrack. Here, you will find the songs I have completed. I had forgotten how glorious they were, in spite of their craptacular names ("The Other Side of the Barrel", "Looking for Sanity (And Finding None)", etc.). A few some folks might even recognize, being remixes of somewhat well-known songs.

And no one can think of an answer to the meme I posted earlier? Or was it just buried too far beneath my own whining? :/
