lulz

It took awhile to do a new post despite the fact that I made the Gumbo was made like a week ago, probably longer. I have been busy doing some stuff. I finally got a job sort of? I have been meeting some new people and going out and doing stuff occasionally.

JOB
I called some Craigslist ad number and it turned out to be canvassing for Grassroots Campaigns. I am canvassing for the ASPCA, which is pretty cool. I pretty much go out and do fund raising for Grassroots Campaigns on behalf of the ASPCA. It's some small office in the Loop with a bunch of people my age. I really enjoy the work, but it is kind of hard. I have one to two more days to make 100 dollars in one day to make staff. If I don't do this, then I get let go. It is pretty difficult to get people to donate money to animals when there is a recession. At the very least I made some money, got out of the house, and met some really cool people.

STUFF
I have, in the mean time, been trying to find other jobs. I have had some interviews with places. I had a call back from a restaurant that turned out to be almost a fast food place. That was a huge let down. Hopefully I will have better luck soon. The weather here has not been as brutal as I expected. It only got less than 20 for like 2 weeks. Then again, in that 2 weeks there was a day where it was -9 degrees with wind chill. That was pretty terrible. For the most part it has stayed above 20, which is fine by me.

That is a basic catch up of what has been going on. Boring - I know.

I need to get some money and go to restaurants and talk about them in posts. Right now I have only really gone to Chicago Diner, Earwax, Sultan's, Handlebar, and a few others. Honestly, I have not been very impressed other than Sultan's. I think my next post will be about why Chicago Diner was not everything I thought it would be. Well, except for the cupcakes and milkshakes. Good Lord those were amazing.
