A little update.

Originally I was writing my update almost word for word of how it had happened when I realized that I was on page six and I hadn't even gone through half my first weekend. So I saved it and forgot all about it. Now I'm back, I've deleted the previous updated draft and starting from scratch.

I've been working a lot more consistently then usual lately, which I'm definitely not complaining about, because for the first time in quite some years, I'm not that stress about money. I've got enough saved to last for a little bit, but unfortunately, I don't have enough saved to last me the entire down time that the film industry in the D.C./Baltimore area gets during the winter season. So it's probably a 9 to 5 or store hours for me until winter is over. I haven't started looking yet, I'm actually dreading working during the holidays in a customer support position. Hopefully, I can hold off until New Year or find a nice boring office jobs. I was really happy that I got to work on the Washingtonienne because I had been trying to work on it for awhile, but never got any call back from anyone I made contact with.

My weekends also had been more entertaining than my past few ones, well at least the first couple weekends since my last update. Let's see, I went to Atlantic city, Philadelphia during the World Series and saw The Who in concert on my first weekend, which also included going to my very first Sonic. One of my goals is to try to go to every major fast food chain in the U.S. There was of course Halloween at Fells Point and our Halloween party the next day, which was a pretty good success. I was a mummy, but my costume was badly put together so it completely fell apart. Beside Halloween, I really haven't spent much time going out with the usual crew, but it's been ok, since I've managed to convince other friends that I'm cool enough to hang out with. Gas has also been quite low, so with the combination of having money and gas being so low in quite some time, I've even decided to go home home to hang out with my sisters. I kind of feel bad for one of my sister, because she doesn't have anyone to hang out with.

While hanging with my sisters, I ran into one of my friends from elementary school. That's a long time. We were very close back then, all the way to high school, but then I graduated, I was a year older, and kind of lost touch. We would bump into each other every once in awhile, and even played ball at the rec center when we both went to UMD. But after I dropped out, I hadn't heard from him until about a few weeks ago when he found me on what else, Facebook. Uummm!!! first he finds me on facebook, then bump into each other while out, I'm beginning to think that he's stalking me....J/K. It was really good seeing him, like I said we were really close, it's good to see that he's doing well. It's really weird, because when we lost touch, I began hanging out with mutual friends of ours and became really close with them. But at the moment, those two friendships are not looking too well.

I'm currently sick. This is the second time this year, the last time was Jan or Feb. I don't know if it's old age or just because I'm not in that good of shape anymore. But I've gotten a cold for four or five straight winters, I never got sick before with the exception of an annoying cough that wouldn't go away. Now I'm getting colds. Not happy at all with my current situation. I'm trying to sweat it out, but my new apt is really big, so it just doesn't get that hot, even though I have the thermostat at 78. I'm currently wearing sweat pants and a long sleeve shirt. If you really know me, you know how rare that is, if you don't know me, read the blog title.

Oh yeah, something pretty significant happened since my last post....what was it....

Oh yeah, Obama was elected to be the new President of the United States. I actually didn't believe the American public would do the right thing. I know that he was leading all the early polls, but I just assumed that once people had to vote for real, that they would end up voting McCain. I've was ecstatic that I was wrong.
