d?licatement extrait du blaugue ? mon fr?re :
“tomber amoureux, c?est pas facile parce que la moiti? du travail se fait ? deux.”

I don’t know who you are
But you seem very nice
So will you talk to me
Shall I tell you a story
Shall I tell you a dream
They think I’m crazy
They don’t know that I like it here
It’s nice in here
I get everything for free

Have you been here before
Shall I show you around
It’s very pretty
Have you come here to stay
Well, you sure picked a day
My name is Billy
It’s my birthday,
you’re invited to my
party down the hall

Where I go, what I’ll become or who I am or what I’ll be
I’ll never know, but I am sure that I’ll get everything for free

I’m not troubled or sad
I’m just ready for bed
It’s been a long day
Before they switch off the lights
It truly was a delight
They think I’m crazy
They don’t know that I like it here
It’s nice in here

Where I go, what I’ll become or who I am or what I’ll be
I’ll never know, but I am sure that I’ll get everything for free

Where I go, what I’ll become or who I am or what I’ll be
I’ll never know, but I am sure that I’ll get
Everything for free
Everything for free

I don’t know who you are
But you seem very nice
So will you talk to me
Have you been here before
Well, you sure picked a day
They think I’m crazy

k’s choice – everything for free

ok. say you’ve got a job. say you’ve got assignements for your job. interesting ones. less interesting ones.
say some pay more than others.
now, if you got, say, a hundred assignements a year, it’s kinda statistical that you have to screw up at least one of them.
what i mean by screwing up is really screwing up, i mean, bad lucks happens right ? so screwing up like really fucking up, like doing completely wrong, like making a huge mistake, like having nothing at all to show or to sell.
on about a hundred assignements, like i said, it has to happen. at least once. nobody’s perfect, so it really has to happen at least once, even if you’re good at your job.

now, say that your assignements kinda grow bigger and bigger, they’re not necessarily more interesting, but say that they involve more money, more people, more responsabilities each time.

so, if you screw up when your assignement is a small task, it’s kinda better than if it’s a big one, right ?
but if you’re up to your ninety-ninth assignement, and you still haven’t screwed up big time even once, then you really gotta worry about your hundred-th-whatever, right ?

my point being, my assignements are beginning to be a little bit big – for me that is -, and i still haven’t really badly fucked up a job i was given.
shall i deliberately screw up the next one, just to be sure that i’ll have less chances, statistically speaking, to screw up a bigger one ?
or shall i just keep on doing my best until i fuck up a one bizillion bucks contract ?

:D

…quand je suis horriblement occup?e ? bosser et que je m’interromps pour me faire un brin de cuisine, je suis parfaitement capable de rater un truc aussi con que des oeufs brouill?s. :|

je viens de le prouver ? nouveau.
