D-ology

My brother filled out one of those "1 bajillion questions you need to answer and forward to everyone" questionaires, and since I enjoyed it I thought I would fill it and pass it along. So here is my own D-ology.

Apparently, I got to a second level of review with one of my job posts, so I'm hopeful. I'm looking at another one I'll be applying for, but I got distracted with my e-mail and comics and blogs... so I think I'll get back to it now.

Although I want to say something first about some music I listen to. I've been listen to a lot of Basshunter - or at least the same song over and over again, but I was watching some of his music videos and I was kind of laughing at these "relationships" that the videos portray - all of the music videos feature the same people. In one video, a girlfriend breaks up with her boyfriend by text message! And then that night, she sees him at a dance club, and tells him that she misses her and they start dancing together. In another video, at another dance club, she sees him talking to another girl, and immediately storms out. And my favorite video is where she texts him again from work saying she's braking up for good this time - less than 30 seconds later, she finds another boyfriend.

I just think it sad and a bit hilarious that this is how relationships are viewed - insecure, mercurial, and shallow - and that somehow the passions in-between are "real". :-P
