starvinbohemianCrap, crap, crap.
My first interview with a musician and I fuck it up immediately.
I wasn't expecting her to contact me right away, so I wasn't prepared. I hadn't listened to her music or researched her background. Terribly embarrassing. I know I got enough to write something decent, but it would have been a thousand times better on my nerves if I had a prepared list of questions and if I hadn't babbled for two minutes on how we both like ABBA.
I am soooo not cut out to be a journalist, even if it's the lowest rank of journalist in existence. I really just wanted to be a vampire-pale editing intern. *FacePalm*
In happier news, I'm a new mommy! Of an itty, bitty shih tzu puppy. Because we are ridiculous, my roommates and I came up with the name Stanislav (Stanzi for short). I wanted a really pompous, big name because the dog is so small, and it makes me laugh. He doesn't live with us yet, but my father will be delivering him in a few weeks. Yay, Stanzi! Now I shall set myself to the task of figuring out how the hell we're going to puppy-proof this place...
