In less than an hour I have my first post-college job interview. What company has sought my services? Oh, just wait, my friends. Until then, wish me luck and stuff. Hah.

I was vegging on my couch the other day, pretty much stabbing to death the free time I seem to have in abundance, flipping through the TV stations. Nothing really stimulating, until… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjpVQbNpGKo] Bill freakin’ Nye on MSNBC. He was explaining volcanos in a television studio to some blonde lady. I haven’t watched him in [...]

It’s been three weeks since I moved back home and a few patterns are forming. While patterns and routines are usually good things, these ones are making me wary, uneasy. I don’t read the paper everyday anymore. I mix up what day of the week it is. Friends call me and I remember to call them back weeks [...]

I’m really psyched for the release of this book, though I’ll probably just leaf through it for a while because I can’t afford hardback books (a really depressing fact) and it’s unlikely my local libraries will be carrying it. But when I can pay for it, or when it comes out in paperback, whichever is [...]

 While packing to move home, I found my high school class ring (in a bathroom drawer, for whatever reason). I truly had forgotten all about it and was surprised to find it to be pretty loose on my ring finger. I blamed it on being cold (the air conditioner was on full blast that day) [...]

As I said in an earlier post, I don’t have a job. I don’t even have a in-between gig. Part of me wants to bask in the glory of total freedom, freedom I dreamed of when I imagined post-college life. I could sleep in until mid-afternoon. I could spend on all day on the couch as I [...]

Can someone tell me why Avril Lavigne sings an inane song about how she “doesn’t like your girlfriend” when she’s married? I think there’s some serious fidelity issues here… I ask this because, being inflicted with a broken iPod and a near-empty bank account, I am reduced to radio flipping in my car. In my [...]

I never read this book when I was in high school, though that is the intended audience. It was mentioned on the dust cover of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, one of my favorites, so I investigated. I bought it a couple years ago (and oddly, I can’t remember where, I usually remember exactly where I buy every [...]

….. to crappy Internet, crazy hicks, and other lameness. And cows. This was the sight that greeted me as I went down the hill to my house. I’m living at home until I have enough money to move out on my own. To do that, first I need a job. I don’t have a job [...]

My educational career is over. I don’t have to go to school anymore if I don’t want to. Technically, I didn’t have to go the past four years, but if I wanted to have any sort of job that paid well, I did. And now I am officially done.  Graduation day itself was a blur. [...]
