Sick and Tired
I got a cold on Sunday night after the Colts amazing come from behind victory over the Patriots. I was already mostly drunk and I went out walking in the cold to go have some fun and I got a haircut on Sat. so I didn't have that to keep me warm. I am mostly over it know although some congestion still lingers today. The new job is going well and I am getting better and better everyday as the procedures become much more routine and therefore don't take as long. The best thing so far about my job is the fact that they feed me everyday and it is good food. Much better than the shit I had to eat when I worked at Corky's. I am not sure about how much money I will be making on a regular basis since there is no regularity in the restaurant biz and it is January one of the slowest months. One other thing is how early I have to get up and consequently how early I go to bed. Last night, today is my day off, I went to bed at 11:30 just because I couldn't stay up any later but I don't really mind I have been getting up late for a long time now first because of the hours I worked at the "Cork" and then because I was unemployed so it is nice to have a change of pace an be a morning person again even if I have no choice.

End of an Era
I did something I never thought I would do today; I sold my mustang. After six years of trouble and grief coupled with being almost completely broke I accepted the $500 and now it is someone else's problem. I have loved and hated that car for years and now the sleeping demon has finally been put to rest. I could no longer wait until the day I could fix the car a don't even know how many things are wrong with it and it doesn't even start any more although the engine cranks. So long old friend(tear).

The Computer is Dead....Long Live the Computer
This is the wave of the future and very likely what the next computer will look like. I found this on technovelgy.com.

Good and Tired
Things have been rather hectic in my life and uncertain which is probably why I have not been posting recently. One of my goals for being out here is accomplished as I have finally found gainful employment. Oddly enough it is a job I initially did not get but received after the person they hired did not work out. It is called Cafe Marly and it is in Beverly Hills, 90210. Don't get too excited by the pictures you see for the Melrose location because I have not been there and am not sure when I will get a chance to work there. The Beverly Hills location is very small almost cramped and although I have not been to Melrose I am guessing it is quite the opposite.
The other waiter I have met, the delivery guy, and the manager who hired me are all french giving me a unique opportunity to improve my french and hopefully take my comprehension skills to the next level. I have had two days in a row of employment and today is my first day off, one of most important things about having a job is the times you are not there. I am finally tired from doing something other than staying up too late drinking ar watching tv and then getting up early. I am tired because I am using my body not just for sitting on the couch anymore. It is too soon to say that this is my dream job but if I think a little hard about it any job I got at this point would have to be my favorite due to lack of competition.
