So, to briefly cover my employment issue, I'm still sending out resumes, but I have signed on to a temp/staffing agency with the hope that if I can't get permanent work for a while then at least I'll bring in some money and just maybe a temp position could actually become a full hire. And my friends are starting to get hired by places, so someone should be interested in ME soon. So, there's that.
So, in other news, had a great weekend. Pretty much spent it with a bunch of people from the usual crowd, added my mom in on Sunday, ha. On Sunday Nicole's mom had a jewelry party and invited us and our moms so I brought mom along to our festivities. A bunch of us played in the pool afterwards which was wonderful because I haven't been swimming all summer and it's one of my favorite things, but the weather has not been condusive for the beach for most of this season. So it was definately nice to get that in.
Moving backwards, on Saturday we celebrated Aimee's birthday with a trip to George's Island. It's the site of a Civil War-era fort in Boston Harbor and is supposedly haunted by a Lady in Black who tried to save her husband, a Confederate soldier held prisoner there. This explains Aimee's interest, as she loves everything ahving to do with ghosts. I enjoyed the boat ride to the island and generally exploring the fort's dark corners as if we were in some kind of young adult mystery novel, heh.
The night before on Friday, I came over to spend the night at Aimee's house because it was unlikely I'd get up so early by myself on a Saturday morning, and because Christine was coming down from Maine to stay as well. As fortune would have it, Fab wanted to make another movie, so she came over with Chad and now we have a SECOND MOVIE! HUZZAH! I have the preview of it here and it is a "horror" film this time. More people, more props, more locations, and more AWESOME!

Finally, I'm thinking about some of the things I've learned in adjusting to life after graduating college, and I think I'd like to do something with that. Maybe go back to St. As for some kind of program to share my wisdom? Or a book? But it'd probably get classified as "self-help" which I generally dislike, but whatever. I'd like to tell people what life will really be like after graduating and if I can get a bit of money out of it too then all the better. Maybe I'll start writing something and set it aside until I know what to do with it. That's something.
