Eventful

What a day... I took today off because I had a job interview. It was not with any recruiter but with an actual employer. I was excited and even got there almost an hour early. The interview went well, I will have to wait 'til Friday to find out the result.

I didn't blog this weekend. I was productive. My ex-manager dropped by to give me the computer from the company, so I could help him out with some stuff. The pay was going to be low, but I was doing it more like a favor to him. I saw Hamlet 2 with Dave and Jose. The movie was funny at times, but I felt it was very disconnected overall. Scenes kept moving and I didn't get a very good full picture of different characters. We all thought it was OK.

I also went to see a concert with Megan. It was The Million Star Alumni showcase. I was disappointed. The performance was just a series of karaoke sing-along, no band, no background vocal. It was embarrassing. The tickets weren't cheap either. I didn't understand why people would pay to see these singers sing to pre-recorded tracks. I was underwhelmed.

Sunday afternoon I visited and hung out with Jen. Her new apartment was homelier than her previous pad. We had Mexican food at Casita Del Campo in Silverlake. The atmosphere there was great, the service was superb, the booth we sat in was nice and cozy. The food, however, was only alright. My chicken burrito didn't have any rice or guacamole or extra something in it, just chicken meat and beans. It was a little dry too. I wondered what Dave would say about this place.

Tomorrow I will go back to this awful organization. I am not looking forward to waking up to that. I will get out of it soon enough. I know I will.
