(no subject)
Well, it's about that time again, isn't it? Time to get back on this ol' thing and write about my life.
So, I've been working at ComedySportz for the last 9 months or so. I was asked into the "Major Leagues" last November and have passed my reviews to become a full-fledged member. It's my new social circle. I see those folks more than anyone. I love it. It keeps me going.
I'm still working for the Walser Automotive Group as well. It has had it's ups and downs, but I never dread going to work, so I guess that says something. I know I'd rather dress business casual and sit at a desk than stand all day and load things for 3M. That was hell. Pure unadulterated hell.
I went to New York for the first time this last weekend. I visited 5 friends from Dublin and loved every minute of it. It was truly a joy seeing TJ, Aram, Elaine, Erin K and especially Erin O'Connor. She was such an amazing friend to have and it was hard to believe it took 2 years to see her and TJ again. They all seem happy. They've moved on with their lives, but the memory of those 3 1/2 months really does live on for them as much as it does for me.
As far as relationships go... let's just avoid the details. I think I excelled in Relationships 101 and 102, but the upper level classes seem to be getting more complicated. In the words of Daniel Craig from Layer Cake, "When I was born, the world was a far simpler place." That pretty much sums things up. Everything means more now... and why? Because we've all been fucked over and all fucked somebody over, so we're supposed to learn from our mistakes and be more mature? Seems logical, I guess. I'm ready for a relationship. But... the weird thing is... I'm not sure what kind of relationship I'm ready for. I think that is a crucial step in starting any relationship... knowing what the fuck it is that you want. But, if you meet someone else who doesn't know what they want, that seems like it might just work.
As for the rest of my life... it continues. Overall, I'm happy and optimistic. I miss my friends though. Everyone is getting married and they're happy. I'm glad they're happy. Kyle and Christy, Nick and Korrie, Joe and Leigh, Raya and Luke, Ellen and Stephen, Nick and Ashley... the list goes on. As for the friends who aren't getting married... I miss them the most. Everyone is so busy these days. Most nights I've free after 10 or 10:30, but there aren't many night owls out there.
Well, livejournal certainly helps get things of your chest, doesn't it? A bit masturbatory, but... whatever.
All my best lads and lasses.
