let the hurricane set in motion;

Oh hi.
So yeah I live in New York now. This is another dream come true that I can check off my nonexistant list I suppose!! It doesn't really feel complete yet though- probably because I am a vagrant sublet-er and have no real home of my own. Hopefully that is forthcoming within the next year or so though. My current sublet ends on June 1, so ... it would be cool if I knew where I was going after that.
But I love being here.
The only downside to where I live now is there is NO WIFI. SO basically I am forced to spend all my leisure time at Starbucks if I want to be on the internet. And thus I keep having to buy coffee, which is an annoying expense when I would much rather drink coffee while sitting on something comfy like a couch and watching Cake Boss instead of sitting on a wooden chair and listening to THE MOST ANNOYING soundtrack ever. This music is like old timey easy listening and it is driving me up the damn wall.

I do have a job now though, so that's cool. Well, I'm a temp. My temp agent's name is Stacey and she loves me. I just interviewed with them like last Tuesday or something, then Thursday I worked 9-5 for a one day fill in at this eco-friendly urban development place. Lots of men in expensive suits were there so that was a little intimidating and I was just like lol ok I am going to browse tumblr while I sort through this mail and occasionally  have to answer the phone. It was not bad though. I got the shit done that needed to get done and only felt a little bit like an awkward turtle.

Today I was told that I'll be starting another job this coming Tuesday, so that is good to hear. This one is a legit thing though- they want someone to stay around for like a year. ..Hopefully they will like me enough for that to be possible. Its doing "logistics" for this super high end jewelry company. Not the best pay but with that and maybe babysitting on the side I can deal.

..And its pretty damn good that I decided to let them submit my resume to it because this other place that I really REALLY wanted to work that was pretty much maybe going to hire me in a few weeks has just decided not to add the new position that I was going to have.. so yeah. Glad I didn't hold out on that.

I do still have a potential nonprofit opportunity which might present itself in the fall.. but we shall see. Who knows. My life is insanity.

Oh hey also today is the anniversary of my high school graduation and Stacy London's birthday. And also I attempted to buy pants in Soho today (several different stores) and it was a massive fail. They were either TOO wide leg, too high waist-ed, too tight, or too weird. Tomorrow I need to go to New York & Company or something- because I KNOW that the trousers there work for me. Goodness. Is there a Charlotte Russe in New York?? I have never seen one.. but I also need some regular non-work pants and know that theirs are good for me as well. Why am I having a conversation on this blog?

Nevertheless.
Pants.
Job.
Need a place to live.
Good Lord I want a frappuccino.

Ok well that is my life. Going to watch So You Think You Can Dance now.. :)
