I just got laid off. :(

I just got a call from the record store where I work at, literally thirty seconds ago. They can no longer afford to keep as many employees so they had to lay off three... and guess who was the third-most-recent to get hired?

Even though my sales/hours ratio was through the roof.

That sucks total ass.

Can we flame them?

make a vlog!!!!!!!!!!

I'm too bummed to make a vlog...

i say you should slap them all silly.

But... but I'll probably still buy their records.
I'm the only kid on the first six floors with a record player.

you have a record player?
how vintage haha
i want a turntable so i can scratch all the records i own while still making good (in my opinion) music.

One Christmas Luke and I happed to get each other record players. I have a love for record players.
Here's my collection so far:
- The original Star Wars score
- Death From Above 1979 - You're A Woman I'm a Machine
- K-Os - Atlantis: Hymns for Disco
- Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
- Radiohead - Kid A
- Radiohead - OK Computer
- Coheed and Cambria - Second Stage Turbine Blade
- Coheed and Cambria - In Keeping the Secrets of Silent Earth 3
- Coheed and Camrbia - Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV
- Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
- NWA - Best Of (DON'T JUDGE ME... EFF THE PO-LEECE).

Also, I'm getting Luke the Alchemy Index by Thrice on vinyl for his birthday, which is Sunday.

oh cool! i have a record player, but it's a new one... from Big Lots!

but my collection is limited to:
Blondie - Plastic Letters
Blondie - Parallel Lines
Blondie - Eat to the Beat
Blondie - Autoamerican
Debbie Harry - KooKoo
Dirty Dancing: The Soundtrack
More from Dirty Dancing

which is fine by me, because i love Blondie.

i have a lot of michael jackson, the bee gees and queen.
they're in the garage somewhere.

asdf;lkasjdfk i can kick above my head again
i've been doing a lot of leg extensions and whatever to see if my leg still works and today i almost extended it perfectly.
hopefully soon i'll be able to do more than just really high kicks

Wooooh yeah go Nigel baby!! Very excited to hear that.
Heh heh Jonny, why did I have you pegged for the hot chick rock type? I love Blondie though I own zilch by her.
My parents just did their will up (FINALLY) and you know what Luke and I are getting? My dad's huuuuuge box of Beatles and Stones records.

omg, Blondie/Debbie are legends! you should buy their Greatest Hits and if you like it, get into their music.
best Blondie song ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnYU3urRj3Q
Debbie's voice in the chorus is SUPREME to anyone else's.
it's just too bad her voice has faded so much over the years. it's still good, but it doesn't have the strength it use to. i wish i'd grown up in the 70s for Blondie alone. i'm a bit obsessive over them, as you can probably tell. =p

S'okay, I feel the same way over Queen.
The store I worked at had a Freddy Mercury action figure, I was all poised to buy with my discount.
The greatest thing is since they laid me off they're giving me forty hours pay.

Sorry to hear that Bree, it definetly sucks to get laid off. That's a sick parting gift though! The diner I worked at closed back in October and still owes me my last paycheck. And nobody faults you for loving NWA, alot of people in my neck of the woods love them (myself included).

i'm so happy
i know i'm never going to be able to do the things i used to do, but i can get pretty close to doing them

i like blondie.
i like lilly allen's cover of blondie.

Nigel... we should unite someday and you can be my dancing partner.
And we'll dance to Blondie.
And Jeraldo, if you like NWA, you should go on Youtube and search for the video "NWA Day - Help the Police." It's amazingly funny.

we totally should. it'd be totally rad.
except for the fact that you're a lyrical dancer and i'm a ballroom dancer and i know nothing about lyrical dancing.
we can do blake's and ashle's samba!

fun fact: i know that whole choreography. it's hella easy.

Can learn... if I master that we will move onto... MIA'S ROUTINE TO 'DANCING!!'

... Wasn't Blondie the one who sang "Call Me"?

[/uncertainty]

the one with lacey and kameron?

yeah blondie sung that haha

Yeah, Lacey and Kameron did it. It'd be good because as a non-lyrical dancer, the male always just kinda stands there and shoves the girl around.
I liked the routine, but seriously... fucking Lacey. I hated that girl to bits.

it was a good routine.
i didn't really think the routine was made just so the guy would show off the girl. i just think kameron sucked and lacey was a camera/audience whore. pfft she's just a whore.

And that ratty-ass weave!! Grrrr. She enrages me. And I actually LIKED Benji.

i like benji and heidi(their mambo routine was amazing).
not lacey.
and it just shows how much of an attention whore she really is since she went on to compete on dancing with the stars.
psshh.

Her chin was so massive it makes me look... like I have a small chin?
There's a lot wrong with the girl.
And while I still feel that the win in S2 should have gone to Travis, Benji WAS very versitile. The choreographers were VERY easy on Lacey. Fucking Mia. Oh, I can't say that... we're pals.
