Although I'm not actually working yet, I've been hired by two places--and just got a call from a third ( Read more... )

Today I FINALLY upgraded the shitty, 2-inch futon pad I've been sleeping on to a full-size mattress and boxspring. Granted, they're used--Uncle Tom had them taking up space in his basement--but they're fairly clean and about a thousand times better than the piece of crap I've been using.

New Year's was pretty good, though less in the way of partying and more in the way of networking. I saw a few shows around Providence, ate at Union Station (which is apparently the only restaurant within my price range that's still open at 11 PM), and I was lucky enough to get the best parking spot in town.

Yeah. I'm back. Haven't been reading or writing LJ entries for a little while. I won't bother trying to fill in the long gap since the last one, just some of the more recent stuff ( Read more... )

The other night, I went to Northampton--much farther away than I thought--to see the Suicide Girls burlesque show with Mandy's friend Jenn. The show was awesome, one of the best concert-type things I've ever been to, but I was more interested in Jenn. Partly because she's Pagan, and I wanted to learn about her experience as such, but also because ( Read more... )

Yup, faster than I thought, I have a girlfriend. The girl I mentioned before, Amanda ( Read more... )
