Life life life.
So. Let me see how well I can update you all.
I graduated from college. That was pretty neat. I feel sort of important, but sort of not. Job searching is pretty daunting. My parents and sister came out and it wasn't so bad. Then, the packers and movers came, and we were OFF. But first, we went to say goodbye to a friend. Said friend had a baby. Said baby had the flu. Said flu entered my system and the next morning at about 11am in Tracy, CA, I was puking my guts out. I have never been that sick in my life. Ever. Tavis said I was green. I puked so freaking much. I couldn't even hold water. Ugh, thinking about it makes me want to die. We stayed with some friends (Brook & Matt) and Tavis got to visit them while I was hugging the toilet. When I finally recovered, we headed to my cousins house and hung out there. We had dinner, and slept over, and left at like...3:30am and made it all the way to Nebraska by 10pm. We stayed the night in a Days Inn, woke up at 4, and made it to Michigan by 11pm that night. So much driving. Never want to do that again. We stayed in MI for a few days and hung out with family, then headed down to Pittsburgh to claim our new apartment. We lived in our empty apartment for 6 days, waiting for our stuff to arrive, and it finally got here on Monday. We hung out with the Marak's a couple times and they introduced us to an Emily of sorts, and she was pretty cool. I've mostly just been trying to find a job. I had an interview yesterday at this place called Executive Sports, which is a sports & entertainment marketing firm, but they said they'd call me by 6pm today, and it's 7 now, so i'm guessing i lose. Oh well. I have an informational meeting to go to on Monday for some sales job, which I probably won't take, because I don't want that kind of job anyway...but hey, it's just a meeting, no obligations. And then I have another interview on the 20th, which looks the most promising. If I got the job, I would be writing the captions for closed captioning. The pay isn't great, but it's something I can do that is related to my education. And there are benefits. And room to move up. So, I guess I am willing to take the shitty pay as long as I can advance. It sounds cool enough. I feel like I should ask for more money though. Whatever.
Right now, i am sitting in Panera Bread, drinking a very tart frozen lemonade, mooching off of their wireless.
Life is grand.
