Bleh

So it's been a while once again since I've updated, but I guess not a ton has happened to me over the past three months.  

I love my job at Navy Pier.  It is easily the greatest job I've ever had.  I spend the day outside talking to people and trying to get the cruise.  The other day a guys said that I was so good I should be a used car salesman.  I take that as a left handed compliment.  It's a good feeling been good at my job.  The best thing, hands down, has been actually getting to cruise.  It's amazing!  I love my city, and seeing it from the boat just makes me tear up cause it's just so damn beautiful lit up at night. 

I've moved once again.  I'm now subletting a place in Logan Square.  It's fantastic.  The lack of a major grocery store is kind of obnoxious, but the proximity to the Blue Line makes up for that.  My roommates are very cool and are never home on weekends during the summer.  Sadly I have now been in the apartment when they were being intimite with their special lady friends.  Awkward doesn't even begin to describe it. 

Sadly not a lot to tell regarding my own love life.  I was seeing a girl for a few months.  She just stopped talking to me.  No idea why.  Such is Mango.

Writing is going well.  Things didn't really work out with the murder mystery company though.  Ah well.  But right now I'm working on a few internet sketches and an internet movie with some friends at work.  I'll try and have those posted once we get the sketches filmed and edited.  Hopefully we'll be ready before the end of the summer.

I feel bad for not using Xanga as often as I used to.  Facebook has just taken over.  Myspace and Xanga just seem so boring compared to Facebook.  Nothing personal Xanga, but you know...

This got awkward...  now Xanga's gonna stop talking to me!  Hopefully it won't be three months before my next update.
