Quick Update! Not Fun To Read!
Faithful servants-What can I say, I live in San Diego now. What it comes down to is, I've always been a San Diegan at heart. These are my people now, and we share an almost mystical connection. When I look at them (the girls), they know what I mean (let's make out). And that's only after being here for 72 hours. What will happen once I get past the stage where I just stare at people in a creepy, insecure way? I think the sky's the limit.
I live in a lovely, albeit diminutive, condo. I think it's about 43 square feet. My room is 6 X 6, so I can lie down in it diagonally. Okay, it's not that small. I've seen rooms that were smaller, but I can't think of any off the top. Oh yeah, I took an Alcatraz tour once, and there were these solitary confinement cells. I think those may have been bigger, though. Anyway, who cares, as long as it's really small.
I don't have a job yet, but don't take that to mean I want one. As it turns out, I don't really like jobs, necessarily. It's not who I am as a person, and I would ask that you be patient with me as I figure out that all I want to do is sit around. Thanks. *
More updates will follow, and they'll be way better than this one, I promise. This update was like an empty package of gum you see on the street. At first you think there might be gum inside, but really, it's an empty package that has simply maintained its original structure. Disappointing, to say the least.
San Diego Native signing out!
*I really need a job, I'm starting to freak out in a major way. Someone please give me a job.

The above stmt suggesting a uniqueness, apparently.
thanks lisa. what are the home addresses of those people you know? i'm going to be out doing errands tomorrow, so i should probably stop by and see if they have any jobs for me yet. i assume you already contacted them about me, so that's good...
speaking of which, jayna: i appreciate the heads up. i knew you had limited respect for me, but i didn't realize the situation was this bad. thanks anyway for the link, i'll probably apply just to spite you. ;)
bryan-what are you trying to do, break me here? this blog is an empty package of gum, there. did you just want to hear me say it or what? :)
ain't moving fun?
did you go to mission hills to see what sort of work they might have for you? ;)
maybe you should get a job at wendy's. they usually only hire people named wendy (and we know all wendys are lovely - look at their logo!) but i'm sure they'd make an exception for you, what with all the making out you have to do.
Bro, I see what your saying about the room. It's basically smaller than than a knats hind end. Also, I fully support any job you feel you want to apply for. Even if you want to be a cat sitter. I may have been less supportice in the past but I am here for ya now!
i'm afraid i can't be with you in supporting him as a catsitter. however, if i had thought, i would have given him a free place to live in denver for TWO MONTHS as a dog sitter...
So where's your next post, already?
It may be an empty packet of gum, but I like it...
i wanna live in SD. you want a roommate? we'd have to bust one of the walls down for me to fit though. doesn't SD have a law school, and a few lawyers? i'll be there on or around tuesday evening. later.
university of san diego DOES have a law school, pman, and my friend who's an ADA now went there! so you should go. but no matter how lonely he gets, don't make out with erik. you'll both only regret it later.
i have to keep a close watch on you guys--turn around for a second, and i'm making out with pman. pman, you can come over tuesday night, but FRIENDS ONLY.
roommate situation: eric with a c is my current roommate, but after a week of that, i'm about ready to switch things up. just let me know.
just kidding eric. i will never let you go. ever. okay, this is now weird.
hf, i love wendy's but here's the thing. i would see the crispy chicken sandwiches prepared live before my eyes on a daily basis, and the magic would be gone. i love those things, i want to preserve a sense of mystery. think of how the black mask i wear does this for me. then think of that sandwich. mmm, that's a good sandwich.
see what happens when you don't post enough?
hijinks ensue.
what's that? erik is living with eric? i rescind my offer to be your roommate. that's just too weird. you guys are freaking me out.
I had a dream last night that since you didn't take me up on my offer of helping you find a job, I found nerdygirl a job instead! Not that she needs a job, but....who knows how dreams work.
Erik, please don't tell me how dreams work :)
Hey Erik, this is a real job in the San Diego area.
I wish they had jobs like this when I was your age.
I was the best “Pong” player on my block.
Anyway don’t think that Uncle Blogball has forgotten you.
I still have my feelers out.

Awww, poor Erik! You know you can always twirl signs, even in SD. I'm rootin' for ya to find a good job. Good luck!
Lois Lane
I hear that smuggling illegal immigrants across the border can get you a fair piece of cash. Tax-free, too. All you need is a van with no windows.
hey lisa-here's how dreams work: actually, that's too complicated, i'll just tell you what your last dream meant: it meant you should still help me find a job, if you seriously 'know some people'. ok? erik's not playing around here. :)
blogball-that sounds fun, but i'm only good at Halo. and some who read this blog may even disagree with that, even though i would easily beat them both at the same time in head-to-head battle, even if it was 2 on 1. (brandon and todd)
LL-seems hypocritical after i made fun of them, but i don't see why that should stop me. i have no pride left anyway, what's one more step down the societal ladder? actually, no. i can't do sign twirling, that's still ridiculous.
erin-keep the ideas coming, i think your brain storm session may have adjourned about 15 minutes early. :)
do you go back and read old comments?
i'm just wondering.
i think you should discuss monkeys soon.
sometimes by chance, and sometimes on purpose, i read old comments. in fact, i saw one from you the other day, discussing a yeats poem i posted. as i remember, you liked it. so we remain friends. actually, we would've been good either way.
something about monkeys. well, that's not a bad idea. ok, but i know you hold monkeys in high regard, so if what i have to say about monkeys is offensive to you, i can't help it if i speak truth. it's the only thing i know how to do.
that was a really good poem... i still like he last 2 lines better than any other poem ever...
speak truth about monkeys (yes, i know they're mean as all get-out, but it's funny to think of them behaving human-ish, like wearing party hats and stuff) and we'll still be friends.
it's when you tell lies that the end is nigh. (i feel like we're having a secret conversation on an old posting...shhhhhhh!)
