Sorry for the Mess

I haven't really been able to do a proper blog since I left whenever it was. Like I said before, it has been a whirlwind of activity, mostly related to spending money, I will readily admit, but not really that much.

I have a lot to talk about, and only a little time before church so I'll just say this, securing an apartment in Brooklyn in a Jewish neighborhood and getting a room with Mario, I'm pretty psyched. Oh yeah, also Mario has "friends" in the catering industry and he's called them already to let them know that I'll be contacting them. He told me that Winter was coming up and that I would be out of luck if I didn't jump on this now. Then he admonished me to "not fart around with this." Basically I'm being gifted a job at 20 dollars an hour doing catering it sounds like, assuming I don't screw up. I'll get the list of names from him monday when I pay all the money, and then I will call them right away and hope that I can still audition for a commercial in D.C. on tuesday for a department store.

Art as Devotion to God

However, no one could watch a master chef craft every element of a recipe just so, and not say to themselves that they were seeing a great artist at work. And yet that art does not come without a cost, and as artists we can sometimes be stymied in pursuit of perfection or of what we see as worthwhile. Shows like “The Bear” where we see Jeremy Allen White’s character struggle over every creati...

I've Got a Job

You read the title right. I just got a job at Uno's Pizza, and yes I'll be a waiter. I'll also be waiting for your responses. Yes, that was a joke. Yes, it was an awful one, but things cost more in the city. I had my notebook filled up with like 18 pages of leads and phone numbers and jobs to look for and amazingly enough, Uno's was actually looking for workers. I was incredulous. I went in to the resteraunt and was greeted by a smiling manager with an earpiece named Chad who seemed like your typical cool dude recent college grad. And somehow he was the manager, maybe the fact that this location is across the street from New York University in the East Village (Manhattan) has something to do with this. I don't know. But right now I'm feeling overwhelmed with joy from finally getting a job, combined with the sudden drop of having one of my main goals knocked out of the way and I was so tired from that struggle that I feel the need to recharge my batteries till ne...
