these are strange times

have you ever experienced that feeling like you’re somewhat trapped, and you want to get out but can’t figure out what you need to do? or like you need just one thing to look forward to, but there isn’t anything?

that’s how i’ve been feeling lately, and it’s rough. i am having a hard time at my job (a coffee chain, the name of which i will let you guess).  i desperately need a new job.  i’ve applied to so many but with no luck. it’s really hard to stay motivated.

does anyone have any suggestions as to how to find something? i thought it wouldn’t be that difficult with a master’s degree from Duke, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.  i just feel like i need some help or at least some encouragement.

any advice?

Bob Dylan to be the voice of car GPS systems?

“I am talking to a couple of car companies about being the voice of their GPS system. I think it would be good if you are looking for directions and hear my voice saying something like: “Left at the next street, no a right - you know what? Just go straight.” I probably shouldn’t do it because whichever way I go I always end up at one place: Lonely Avenue.” -Bob Dylan

“I am not a protest singer. I sing ordinary mathematical songs.”
Bob Dylan, 1965 (via dailydoseofdylan)
dailydoseofdylan: thedailywhat: The Times They Are A-Changin’ of the Day: Bob Dylan, killing time before a concert, was strolling through Long Branch, New Jersey, when he was stopped by police officer Kristie Buble, who was responding to a call about an “eccentric-looking old man” wandering around like a complete unknown. From ABC News: “I asked him what his name was and he said, ‘Bob Dylan,’ Buble said. “Now, I’ve seen pictures of Bob Dylan from a long time ago and he didn’t look like Bob Dylan to me at all. He was wearing black sweatpants tucked into black rain boots, and two raincoats with the hood pulled down over his head.“So I said, ‘OK Bob, what are you doing in Long Branch?’ He said he was touring the country with Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp. So now I’m really a little fishy about his story. I did not know what to believe or where he was coming from, or even who he was. We see a lot of people on our beat, and I wasn’t sure if he came from one of our hospitals or something,” Buble said. Buble placed Dylan in the backseat of her patrol car and drove to his hotel to verify his identity. She was met in the hotel parking lot by her sergeant who opened the car door and said with conviction: “That’s not Bob Dylan.” Eventually Dylan’s identity was confirmed by his handlers and he was allowed to carry on freaking out the citizens of Jersey with his “eccentricities.”
