the young and the angry...

closed...i really don't have anything else to say, aside from a little rant involving my first run of the night...i delivered to a regular customer: Roland Bishop, an old man living at 1550 N. Parkway who sounds like a woman and always tips a dollar...i bring his food to his apartment and ring the doorbell...i can hear him inside talking on the phone...i keep ringing and knocking on the door...the knocking turns to pounding...this keeps up for like five fucking minutes...the whole time i can hear him talking on the phone...it's a real awkward position...on one hand i'm just fucking sitting at the door, i can't do that forever...but do i leave when i can fucking hear him just a few feet away on the other side of the thin door? he finally gets off the phone and answers the door, saying "i was on the telephone" !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! WHAT THE FUCK!? i was thinking maybe he's part-deaf and could only hear one thing at a time (the phone, in this hypothetical case) so he couldn't hear me at the door...but NO! he hears me...what would a normal person do in this situation? there are several things a normal fucking person would do: 1. answer the door while talking on the phone...yes, multitasking can be tricky, but in this case it's not very difficult...but maybe he has a phone w/ a cord that can't reach the door...this leads to the next options, 2. say "oh, there's a delivery at my door...lemme call you right back" 2. say "hold on a second, i'm gonna set the phone down while i answer the door" all of which are extremely reasonable options...however, IGNORING THE FUCKING DOOR AND WAITING 'TIL THE CONVERSATION FINISHES ON ITS OWN NATURAL COURSE BEFORE CONSIDERING THE DOOR WHILE THERE'S SOMEONE STANDING OUT IN THE HALLWAY POUNDING ON IT is not a very reasonable way to approach the situation...and of course, Mr. Roland Bishop gave me the usual one dollar fucking tip...that's all...goodnight...

doorstep

woke up to find a gigantic package had arrived for me: my Roland keyboard amp!!! a few hours later, just before i was leaving for work...another package arrived:
Wendy Carlos: Switched-On Boxed Set
Wendy Carlos: Clockwork Orange - Complete Original Score
on my way to work i dropped the amp off at the space...(hopefully we can put it to good use w/ a practice on wednesday...) work was pretty busy...i made a fair amount of dollars...now i'm back home...must do a good bit of reading before class tomorrow...
