Still Here...
Although my dedication to blogging is sad and laughable, I am definitely still here. I usually think about what I want to say while I'm out, and then when I get home I realize I have to get ready for work, iron my shirt or get back on Craigslist to continue the search for a new living arrangement. Which, is slow-going and frustrating. Either the place isn't really what I want, where I want, what I want to spend...or the person somehow feels that I would be a horrible flat-mate. It's like being through sorority rush all over again. I hate it.
So, that is what I'm up to these days. I was offered the bar manager position at Izzy's but I have to turn it down because it would suck the life out of me. (They want me to be a real manager too, which will NEVER happen!) So, I will continue working there and at Ottimista on the weekends. Basically, I work Wed, Thurs, Fri from 3 to 11. Saturday, I work from 10 a.m. to midnight, straight through...then I work Sunday brunch. So, I have 72 hours straight hours away from work, which I think is one of the most enviable schedules in San Francisco right now. The money seems to be steady, and with the Beer and Oyster Festival, Union Street Fair and Mother's Day coming up, we should be busy. I'm going to try and take a little vacation (3 days...) and go to Vegas or something, just to relax. Then, I am thinking about Burning Man again, although I will definitely do things differently this time. My next big trip will be for Christmas. Venice or Buenos Aires. hahahah.. Who knows? For now, I just have to find an apartment and keep working and saving. I would have $2500 more dollars right now, but Uncle Sam came to call and I had to write a massive check. Icky. Stupid, but c'este la vie!
