today on intern radio...
erm, so, i haven't blogged about this, out of fear that someone i work with might stumble upon my blog, but today was just too much to handle. there are two of us interns at work. we don't have offices or cubicles. we have desks. and our desks are somewhat out in the open. and our desks are right next to each other. today, the other intern unilaterally decided that she needed to play some music at her computer to help her work. this ain't really great, since we have to make phone calls, receive phone calls, talk to clients, talk to attorneys, et cetera et cetera. but aside from that, and the fact that i'm hands-down the most easily distractable person on the planet, and having music playing at the computer that's about 2 feet from my ears pulls all focus from my brain, the musical selection was, well, it was just wrong...
first, there was gregorian chant.
then, it was salsa hour.
and that's when i lost my mind and had to flee the building for 15 minutes to take a walk and regain my sanity.
why oh why am i so good at some things, but so bad at simple things like saying to my colleague, "hey, that's really distracting, can you use headphones?"
grrrr...

i don't even think i'd say anything. i'd just stare with my jaw on my chest. to do that without asking permission or discussing it with one's officemates is beyond rude. it's absolutely ridiculous.
just wait til your a f/t lawyer. then you can close your office(!!) door and play underground hip-hop all day, like i do from time to time.
ugh, i meant "you're"
