Egads, I finally have the spare $$ to afford this website again! Three cheers, hoorah hoorah. I've had withdrawals, I think.

Anyways, it's good be back, good to see everybody and all that. The end.



(p.s. It's almost Halloween!)

Found a Film/TV job!!!

Well, sort of.

It's logging footage at this production company in mid-town. Long hours of going through footage for this upcoming Discovery Channel show.

But the office is really swank and the people are friendly and it pays $125 a day which is great. It's not a permanent position, it's more of a freelance thing, but it looks great on the...

Um, holy shit...



Yeah.

It's really hot and gross in NYC. I'm ready for fall. Hooded sweat shirt weather. Apple cider weather. Elliott Smith weather.

I am officially a graduate of New York University!



But alas I am still poor... and will be paying back the student loans for the rest of this lifetime. Possibly spilling into other potential subsequent lives.

But for the time being, I am ecstatic. It's like being an official grownup.

I am about 90% moved into the new apartment. I'll be finished by the end...

Two more weeks left of college

Fuck.

Rent's due this week. Swell.

It will be hell finishing all these papers and exams, but then I will be throwing the apartment party of all apartment parties. So there's that to look forward to.

Check list of things to accomplish during my week "off":

- Find an apartment for myself and roommate Adam to live in.

- Start looking for a film &/or TV job.

- Finish the new CD.

- Write the second episode of my TV show.

That seems like a lot for one...

2.) I've never gotten paid for my writing before.

3.) I can pay my taxes this spring no prob.

4.) I have money in the bank for a deposit on an apartment this spring.

5.) I can...

I am sick. Gross. I've got a real motherfuck of a cold. This morning I woke up and it felt like I'd swallowed a sword in my sleep. The worst part of getting sick when you're in college is having to sit quietly in class when you have to blow your nose every other minute. You bring kleenex, but of course you run out and...

I am scared as all shit.

I'm graduating in a little less than four months and I have only the very vaguest ideas of what I want to do with myself. Come May 16th, I will have the following:

- no money
- one BFA in Film & TV Production
- four years' worth of student loans
- the need to find a place to...

So I'm back home in Michigan for a while, taking a break from school and work. I sure need it.

Such a weird semester. It started in such an awful, miserable place and has ended with me being with somebody I really care for, feeling really happy and content again. Yes I'm still broke and No I'm no closer to figuring out what to do...
