WHAT I DO–The irregularly kept journal of Ken Jordan

Ken Jordan is wearing a yellow shirt.

It has been many days since Ken Jordan last sat down to type a journal entry. It has been less time since he has not written something for the upcoming EMP production …and you’re just not good enough. In fact, Ken has not written something for that show as recently as now. And now. And now. And now. And now. Still nothing. And now. And now. And now. And now. And now. And n–(ed.: originally, the segment beginning with the words “and now” continued for a further 25 pages. It has been edited for length and spelling.).

And now, in the past, yesterday, or technically on Sunday, Ken Jordan guesses, Ken Jordan quit his job. Because of his job, Ken Jordan was going to miss out on making several short films with EMP Collective veteran Hearty White

for EMP Collective’s upcoming production …and you’re just not good enough. Ken Jordan had even gone as far as emailing Hearty White and telling Hearty White that Ken Jordan would not be able to make it down to do the shooting with Hearty White because of a scheduling conflict with his job, which made Ken Jordan feel like a complete piece of crap, both for not getting to do what Ken Jordan wanted to do, and because it seemed that Hearty White was really bummed about it, and the last thing Ken Jordan wants to do is bum out Hearty White. Also, Maggie Villegas threated to stab Ken Jordan in the left testicle with a ’93 Toyota Corolla if Ken Jordan did not shoot several short pieces with Hearty White for EMP Collective’s upcoming show entitled …and you’re just not good enough. So, after careful consideration, both about this specific situation and the possibility of missing out on future opportunities like it, Ken Jordan decided that not only was Ken Jordan going to make these several short films with Hearty White for EMP Collective’s upcoming production entitled …and you’re just not good enough. Ken Jordan was going to quit his job completely so as not to have to forgo anything just as, or even slightly less or more, cool as shooting several short films with Hearty White for EMP Collective’s upcoming production entitled …and you’re just not good enough.

Cap'n Crunch with French toast in it.

Ken Jordan, after eating a breakfast of Cap’n Crunch French Toast  from the Blue Moon Cafe and informing Hearty White that Ken Jordan would indeed be traveling to Hearty White’s home to shoot several short films with Hearty White featuring Hearty White for EMP Collective’s upcoming production entitled …and you’re just not good enough, called Ken Jordan’s boss and informed Ken Jordan’s boss that Ken Jordan would no longer be working for Ken Jordan’s boss. Ken Jordan’s boss was very understanding of Ken Jordan’s position and let Ken Jordan go gracefully. In fact, Ken Jordan understands that Ken Jordan has already been replaced, not two days after resigning.

Ken Jordan has domestic things Ken Jordan needs to take care of before shooting several short films with Hearty white for EMP Collective’s upcoming production entitled …and you’re just not good enough. Curtains. Ken Jordan needs curtains for six windows, and it looks like each window Ken Jordan needs to cover is about 3′x8′. Plus, Ken Jordan needs to hang a large, thick sheet of something that can part in the middle to separate Ken Jordan’s living room from Ken Jordan’s kitchen. Ken Jordan thinks that this would make Ken Jordan’s beautiful yet cavernous living space way warmer, but also thinks that it would be cool to go back and forth between Ken Jordan’s living room and kitchen pretending that Ken Jordan was attending a seance or something.
