it's another bring your fiancee to work day.

the other day, i accidentally split a big hole in my jeans. i was upset about it, but my mother was very consoling. you see, she and my father have, oddly enough, become very big american idol fans. her optimistic advice, then, was, "it's ok, nate! everyone on american idol has holes in their jeans!" i felt so much better about it after that.

i'm proud of this one for some reason.

there was more, but i've since forgotten. the day's soundtrack so far has been six parts seven 'things shaped in passing' and radiohead 'ok computer'. there is something amazing about ok computer.
