Update

Sorry it's been a few days. Let me think of what has happened...

Beth and I had an outstanding Sunday brunch at this place in North Park (i think she blogged about it). I can't get over how cool this neighborhood/city is. Every block has something to offer whether it is interesting cafes, bars, galleries, shops, or record stores. Christine and Caitlin are in town from Richmond so we've been hitting up their hotels hot tub at night for the past few days. We're still looking for jobs and it is still a total drag, but Beth has a call back with this swanky chair designer and I have an interview at a temp agency next week so maybe our days are coming!! A few days ago we both got call backs from a (unbeknownst to us) pyramid scheme but thankfully Mel thwarted their plan by telling us about the time she fell for the SAME company's lure. It sounded like a pretty miserable experience so we are opting out of this round of shenanigans.

Let me tell you about my day today though,
Beth and I walked down University Street towards North Park and explored a little more, applying places as we went. We decided on lunch based on advice my old pal Scott Kenney gave us (Roberto's Taco Stand). IT WAS DELICIOUS! of course. Good old roberto...After this, Beth read her book and napped while I surfed the web volunteering for multiple theater companies as well as joining a local volunteer community that lets you choose all kinds of organizations to work with and has a very helpful calendar showing their upcoming events. I'm excited to get involved around here and meet some people too. My Dad will be proud when I tell him of my networking! Tomorrow night we're going to hang at Mel's house in Chula Vista with some other people so that should be a really good time. As long as things work out with this temp agency I think I'm beginning my upward revival! If they don't I'm definitely going to be bummed and probably go up the street to Denny's and get a poo poo job there. LETS BE POSITIVE!

Verse

saw Verse tonight at the Che Cafe. That place was tight. Its maybe a little smaller than the Nanci Raygun's floor and with lower ceilings, but theres also a kitchen and apparently a zine library too. they host all kinds of shows, events, potlucks, etc so i'm definitely planning on spending some time there in the future. Travis and Mel took us to this really cool mexican place downtown for lunch then we hung out until the show. brunch tomorrow!!!

today was good

much better than yesterday. thank God. Check out Beth's blog for a pictured account of our adventures!

Nicole and Paula are in town tonight and we're super pumped!!!

Somebody please tell me..

Every time I read an article or watch an interview about somebody with some really awesome experiences and talents I step back for a minute and think to myself "why can't I be doing that?" There are some really fucking inspired people running around getting tons of shit done for the greater benefit of humanity or the earth and here I am sitting around stressing about money because I can't even find a job to support myself. It sucks. I just finished reading about a bunch of stuff John Josef has done in his life and I feel like a worthless selfish waste. I don't have any idea how to get involved in the heavy shit he is involved in and he is only one example. I look at professional artists and musicians and everybody who makes livings in those realms and wonder where and how they got their starts. I honestly have no idea. Is that my fault? Do I not do enough on my part to live one of these lifestyles? I don't know! I would do anything to have an opportunity to work in an exciting and interesting career field but I can't even figure out where the front door is. Do most people just luck out and fall ass backwards into these jobs? I can't see how that is the answer. They must start somewhere, but WHERE!? I feel like the real key here is networking with others, but how am I supposed to get that web going if I don't have anyone to network with??? Why am I having such a hard time finding a job? It seems like there should be an endless supply of work when you think about every bottle cap thats been pressed or tv show thats been filmed. WHY CAN'T I SEE THESE DOORS?? I feel like they are invisible to me. Microscopic cracks that other people find when I just see a huge wall. This might be the most frustrated post I've written, but it is also one of the most important to me. Everybody wants to hire someone with experience, but how are you supposed to get experience if you don't have any? fuck dude. I really do not understand how things work, even when they seem so simple. I really hope something comes up in my cards soon because I want to prove to myself and everyone else that I can and will succeed. There will be quiet after the storm!

it is done!
