More secretive and the location of various missle silos...
Would someone like to explain to me why I have to go on a fifth, count ‘em, fifth interview for this underwriting job? I literally know a guy who did an internship over the summer I was in Washington D.C. at the National Security Agency, a government entity more secretive and Machiavellian than the CIA and FBI combined, and he had fewer freakin’ ( Read more... ) -
Vacation, bitches
So the Spring Europe Vacation is all booked…at least I think it is. We’re (myself and what will hopefully be my newly college-graduated sister) going to London and Paris for a week each, so I’ll be gone for two weeks. And just to show you how bold I am, I’m going on vacation for two whole weeks even though I technically only have 9 allowable days ( Read more... ) -
Failure to Communicate. Seriously.
So I go to a meeting last night with good intentions and turns out said meeting for volunteer efforts and fundraiser planning is cancelled. As in when I called to confirmed around 3pm for a meeting at 6:30pm, they apparently forgot to tell me it was cancelled. Not that I had to fight my way through traffic on Santa Monica Blvd, which has been under ( Read more... ) -

Heading over to LACMA tonight for their 40th anniversary party thingie. It’s free, so while it could suck, not many people are into the whole art scene in L.A., so it could turn out pretty decent. Here’s to hoping. -
OH MY GOD, IT'S RAINING!!!!
The thing that kills me about Southern California when it rains is that it causes people to go batshit crazy. No seriously, people loose their minds, fuck up with their driving, and/or call in sick to work. As in “It’s raining too hard, my commute is too long, and therefore, I will not be in today.” No semblance of even pretending to be sick. I can ( Read more... ) -

So many dvd purchases, so little time.
Recent acquisitions:
-The Office: Season One: While I refused to watch the first season on account of my absolute love for the British version of the show, I must now come out and say how patently wrong I was. I should’ve known, frankly, considering Steve Carell is one of the funniest m-fers on the planet ( ( Read more... ) -
Freedome Forever!
Ah, V for Vendetta. Good, clean, revolutionary fun for the whole family. Assuming your family doesn’t mind rooting for a terrorist with a fetish for theatrical masks and bombs and who enjoys stabbing the shit out of people. Good times. Beware, spoilers behind the cut.

Pride and Prejudice: I'm in love.
I think I’m in love. No really, head over heels, singing in the streets, running up the walls in love.
The problem? The guy isn’t even real. He’s a character for God’s sake. A cipher of sorts, for all honorable and moneyed men who finally admit to certain young ladies containing the Bennet surname that she has (and I quote) bewitched me, body and ( Read more... ) -

Job searches blow. They’re long and tedious and you’re forced to take off work to go interviews, lying to your boss in the process about why you’re not there. Because you can’t very well say “Yeah, I’ll be in late today because I’m looking to replace you with someone who’s sane ( Read more... ) -

So the new job search is on. I've had a couple of executive head hunters call, which is way cool but I ain't no executive. It's just that I've been working since I started college, so my work experience is a heck of a lot more than your average schmo in his twenties. Who knows, maybe I could become an exec. The responsibility of that though, along ( Read more... )
