New roommates! No Job.

It’s been a while since I posted and a longer while since I posted about myself, so here, for your reading pleasure, is an update on my life.

Anyone who’s seen me in the last few weeks will know that the thing that has been foremost in my mind has been The Great Job Hunt of ’07. My original goal after graduating was to have a job lined up by the first week of December. I realize now how incredibly naive that goal was. Finding a good job is hard, man. I arrogantly assumed that I’d have very little trouble getting an interesting job, but now I it seems there are a lot of people looking for jobs and my resume isn’t getting noticed as much as I’d hoped it would. I’m trying not to get too stressed out about it, but it’s a bummer to keep getting turned down for jobs. If all else fails I’ll just get a couple of part-time jobs to pay bills while I look for something better and that would be fine. Sometimes you gotta wait for the good ones, right?

The reason I need to get a job so bad is that if I don’t my new roommates will totally beat me up. These three violent dudes I’m soon to be rooming with are named Bill, Ben, and Joel and they are the meanest hombres this town has seen in a long time. We got this rad pad in Minneapolis with a three-season porch, a dishwasher, and a claw-foot bath tub… and that’s just the stuff on the first floor! I’m really super big time excited to move in. I was thinking the other day that this will be the first time I’ve lived in a place where I would totally hang out with each of my roommates individually and not just because we’re living together. This is gonna rule.

So, yup. If you hear of any jobs in economic/social justice in the ‘apples area, let me know. Otherwise, I’ll totally hook you guys up with free McDonald’s fries and let you hang out on our porch. (You can hang out on the porch even if I do get a cool job.)

P.S. I’m sure one of us will post pictures of the new place as soon as we take some. Stay tuned!

    If you get a job can I still get those free fries?

    Can I have more free fries than Joel gets? I’ll settle for more than a lot, but no less than a bunch. Also, please salt and pepper? I like the taste. K-thx-byez.

    Excitement, but I will certainly miss having a photographic, almost migratory knowledge of how to get to the ‘dooples.
