The Short Version

Filed Under California, Work 

So, this is getting ridiculous. It looks as though I’ve moved to California to spend countless hours on the bus and the train and in PowerPoint and not really embarrassing myself or finding my way into interesting stories. Bummer.

But there have been things… small things. Things I’d like to tell you about but just haven’t had the time to. So I’d like to give a quick summary in hopes you’ll be all like, “whoa, I want to hear more about THAT” and then you’d bug me to write more until I literally have no choice but to just take a week off of work and write the hell out of this blog and we all feel better about the whole thing.

So… I’ve gotten way into salsa. I ate mushrooms and didn’t hate them. I’ve been sick three times. I’m really sick right now. I’ve fainted once. I’ve gone on two internet dates. One of these ended with my date calling me “interesting.” I’ve been asked to go on an internet date to a pet cemetary. My inability to dance with women has been revealed as the source of a “sexual energy crisis” in the city of San Francisco. I took motorcycle lessons and was the BEST IN CLASS. I don’t have my motorcycle license yet. I’m compiling lists of good shit from 2008. I’ve gotten a-okay at Rock Band drumming. I’m now intimately familiar with music by offensively boring bands like Boys Like Girls and Metro Station and have had to listen to Circus more than should be required by any human being. I was licked on my jaw by the drunkest woman who ever drunked. I’ve been pushed aside by grown adults for cupcakes. It turns out that the pretty girls take the 41. I make the messiest burrito in Whole Foods history. I almost never get enough sleep. My roommate puts together a mean Thanksgiving. I miss the Get Back like craaaazy. I’ve come dangerously close to being homesick. I miss my co-workers and my buddies. I’m excited to fly home (12/18!).

I think that covers most of it for right now. I’m late for bed, PER USUAL.

    No pictures, but ask me anything about riding through a curve (outter-inner-outter, look at the destination) or swerving (it’s scary as shit).
