Got to talk to the famed Jimmy Jam (aka: Officemate Jimmy) the other day. We agreed that our year together at Pilgrim Manor was awesome, a good formative year of being post-college, first jobs, working in an old supply closet with no windows and having a blast.
I was reminded of how Jimmy James controlled the music but I could make requests. A few cds I liked to play on repeat: Death Cab, Ben Folds, and one by Snow Patrol. He would say “What do you want to listen to today?” I’d say one of those three options, in lieu of any better ideas. James would say “ok, great,” wait for ten minutes until I got sidetracked by something else, and then play whatever he wanted. I never noticed until he told me he was doing it the month before I left.
Hahahaha. Apparently I also used to say “Hey James, you will not believe this!!” and then trail off with distraction, never to finish the story.
Miss you Jimmy.
