Life Updates
August 20, 2005 ( life )
I've been busy!!! Sorry, I feel I've been out of touch with everyone out there.
OK.
I got the job at CrisisLink / 1-800-Suicide. It's a good job for me, not unlike OTC in that I'll be full-spectrum IT support/development/planning/etc. I work part-time. It's a bit of a commute, but I figure I'll have enough reading pretty quickly...
I've bought some new clothes (I was getting a bit low on decent shirts there) and found a new pair of shoes. (grrr shoes). I've established a local bank account, as UFCU only has one ATM in DC that it has a shared agreement with. I've bought a cell phone, and am waiting for it to be delivered (Verizon). I'm very excited about the phone, which will be free-to-me after some rebates; it's a 1.3 megapixel camera with LED flash, video camera, MP3 player, bluetooth, and USB connectivity, with 512MB of memory internal plus a mini-SD slot! It's CRAZY. Hopefully I'll actually like it once I get to use it...
Outside of work, I continue to try to keep up with the local DC friends, but that is not a cheap proposition! Fun, tho.
I continue to explore parts of the city -- Adams Morgan, Georgetown, and Dupont Circle all appear to be pretty fun areas to hang around in, with coffee shops that aren't starbucks, indie bookstore/cafes, and the like.
Classes start for me in early September, with lots of orientation type things happening over the next 2 weeks.
I think that's the big news up here.
