Today I got a job. Yes, no more wrestling with those pesky little bouts of "unemployment depression". I just got back from the interview and orientation, and it seems wonderful. Its a little organic coffee & tea bar in the East Village on the NYU campus, that also serves wine and beer during the evenings. They're starting me off at $7.50 per hour ( Read more... )

Okay, so I had a very difficult/eventful week this week. I'm trying to be positive, but I think I just need to get this out of my system ( Read more... )

Yes. I got my period today (technically yesterday), and it is REALLY bad. And its not so much the physical symptoms that are getting me down, its more that I am an emotional mess, and really, really, reallly moody. Its like when its raining and sunny at the same time. I miss my guy guy more than anything, but all I can do when we talk on the phone ( Read more... )

My building has offered my roommate and I a monthly metro card (worth about $75.00) for agreeing to let the building show our apartment as a "model" during tours. They come every day of the week, mondays through fridays twice, once at 1:30 PM and again at 3:30 PM. On saturdays and sundays once at 3:30 PM. We have to keep our place tidy and show- ( Read more... )

Visit number two to Amherst, Mass. this weekend. They just keep getting better that way. The greyhound ride up there was hideously irritating. The tickets for my 2:00 bus had been over-sold, and they decided to stop filling the bus right as they got to me boarding, so I had to wait a while (not too long, actually) for the 3:00 bus. On the plus side ( Read more... )

Yes, astrology is all bullshit. But it's also not. Because it deals in archetypal forces common to all of us, it has as much validity as you care to assign to it. It can be a powerful tool for understanding yourself, others, and relationships. For instance, it can't accurately predict when you'll die or fall in love, but it can help you figure out ( Read more... )

Is it weird to think that I might be the result if Adam Goldberg and Christina Ricci had a baby?

I started out slow and easy lastnight with re-watching the documentary, The Weather Underground, pizza, and a couple of cocktails. Since I had seen it before, I got a little impacient with it from time to time, but it is still a quality documentary of the 1960's radical student left movement and such. Very good. After a few more cocktails, I ( Read more... )

I sent my mother tulips for her birthday, which is tomorrow. Tulips are her favorite. I have the weekend off, which is going to be used for laundry, cleaning, studying, homework, my hair, making important phone calls, sending people shit in the mail, letters, valentines, errands, and hopefully a Kosher adventure for manawach and hummos. There is ( Read more... )

Due to a very gross and evil sandwich I ate lastnight, I was sick for most of the day today. Eww. I should never have eaten that sandwich, no matter how hungry and starving I was on Tuesday night. I managed to get up and go to my last class of the day, which was my history class. I wouldn't miss that class for anything! After I got out of class ( Read more... )
