Job Searching

Thanks to my friend Abi, I've hit a little break in the cloud that is job searching. She introduced me to a tutoring website. So I am now making a little bit of money. It's not enough to support myself, but there remains the possibility that it could be. Regardless, it makes the whole waiting to get a grown up job easier and it doesn't get in the way of my volunteering work.

It's Always Good To Be Politically Correct When Ribbing Your Friends

Jaimee, Andrew and I went to Sherri's for desert. It was a cold, clear Friday night. The sound of Jaimee's shivering in the back seat rattled the car.
Andrew glanced back at her in the rear-view mirror. "You sound like a mentally handicapped turkey."

My Ingenious Arrangement of The Ferret Prison


Andrew thinks that the fence looks like Jurassic Park

I had some notebooks on the bottom shelf, but they pulled them all out. The notebooks now live on the top shelf.
See Pip on the bookshelf.
