i am screwed

i'm not one of those intellectual people who has a whole lot of important shit to say. i'm a fucking 18 year old girl who still spends her time getting high in her parents' basement while watching the Colbert Report.

i'm the kind of person who doesn't want to have to explain why i do the shit i do. sometimes you just do shit for no fucking reason, man.

like the other day i had to explain to a potential employer why i wanted the job i was applying for. a job making COFFEE, no less.

what am i supposed to say? "I want to work here because it is my dream to brew coffee for a living". more like, "I want to work here cuz I need some money so I can move the fuck out of my mom's house". I need money. People work because they want the money.

why did they have to ask me that question?
i couldn't offer them an explanation. i still can't.

Sometimes you just have to play the game you know. Maybe you could have tell him the truth that you needed some money and this job would suit you as you make excellent coffee, don't you? I bet he would not be that surprised as you might think.
