which song they’re gonna play when we go
A year ago, this was the album I constantly played as I worked my last few weeks at the hospital. My office was stripped bare, my speakers were turned up to a bold volume, and I counted the days until I left for the museum, a gig I couldn’t wait to start.
Six months ago, this was the song I rediscovered after I heard a segment on NPR praising the album. I had just gotten back from my first real web development conference and was filled with so much zeal for my job I didn’t know what to do: I ate, drank and breathed web development day in and day out.
Two days ago, I heard this song while browsing a mall with my brother, at a store that sold overpriced, pre-distressed jeans. I sat down at my desk today and stared at my monitor, unsure what to do. So I tore my desk apart, rearranging, cleaning, rewiring, until it was arranged exactly as it was a couple months ago, the last time I felt something akin to excitment for my job.
