So today, one of the sports writers, who had worked at the paper for something like 30 years, left. They had a big party, with cake, people telling stories about their interactions with him, and apparently, they're all going to a restaurant later.

I was struck, as it was going on, that they definitely aren't going to do the same thing for me when I leave. Even leaving aside the fact that I haven't worked there very long, no one there really knows me very well. It's mostly my fault--I think my perfect job is one where I don't actually have to interact with anyone, so I don't tal kto the reporters much when I don't have to--but still, it's a little depressing. I'll also have a hard time being noticed for promotion in future jobs if people actually interacting with me bothers me. :p

Oh, and [livejournal.com profile] t3chnomag3, I listened to those samples. I was right--I should buy their CD. Here's Within Temptation's MySpace page, if you want a comparison.

Comparison to what? What you're listening to now? WT's beat doesn't sound too happy to me. Not that it's bad.

I know I can delete, but what's the fun in that? And it makes your post count look higher!

Well, it's not like the video gives away everything, so there are definitely some other twists and turns that you may not be able to predict, even if you do know Superman's true identity (I swear he looks like Supes when he slicks his hair back!)
