My new job at University Hall is fun, kinda.

A day of errands and shopping. Christmas presents for family and time with the girl I love. What a day! Hope it snows to make everything nice.

Last Saturday Jenn and I went down to Providence, RI to seeWaterfire. I was overwhelmed by this giant work of art; the sight of these fires reflecting off the dark river, the smell of the wood burning, the light music in the air. It was really peaceful. As a side effect of these influences I made an observation of the people at the event. There men and women of from 16 to 80 of all class types and genres. and they sat or walked together in a peaceful manner it was a little satisfying to see that their might be a chance for our society to get along.

Independence Day, 2001
Tonight there will be celebration. Fireworks, Boston Pops, and barbecues. Jenn and her parents will visit. We will fight Plymouth traffic to watch the fireworks. Why? Because we can. we are free. 225 years ago today the Constitution of the United States of America was ratified and amended and the Bill of Rights approved. We became a free country unto ourselves and now is the time to celebrate. So every one pickup your soda, wine or beer and toast to goo old US of A and be happy you live in the United States of America, even with all its problems still the best country to live in.

Jenn has her own website now and for all you smart people out there in Internet Land she provides new and interesting trivia with every post.

Friday.
Summer Picnic for the Phoenix Media Communications Group. At ten am the boat departs from Boston Harbor headed for Thompson Island. I have a half hour to drink all the free drinks I can. I down six Heineken and one screwdriver. When I get on to the Island I have three more Sam Adams. I only remember that I was hot and dared multiple times to jump off the boat. Everything else is foggy until Jenn and I got to Downtown Crossing and went to Filene's where a got a shirt then we proceeded home. Just in time to see my parents just getting ready to leave for the Cape. (Have fun guys, you need it.) Saturday I worked the Bottle Drive for them which was lame and went out to see Moulin Rouge with Jenn, Allison, Alyssa and Becky. It was a decent movie, it was a lot like a Broadway musical on crack, with pop songs in place of original songwriting, but the way it came to together was really good. I would recommend it for a matinee showing but, not a full-price evening show. Afterwards I dropped Alyssa off to pick up Jeremy and the rest of headed to the clubhouse for a few drinks hoping to catch Ryan and Josh (who just flew in from Phoenix, AZ that evening) before we all went to bed. This morning I awoke to do the bottle drive again and drop off said bottles to the recycling guy. Then went to see Tomb Raider which was definitely a waste of time and money. I a least thought the special effects would be good but they blew too. Overall I've had a great weekend, now if only my last week on the job would go easy and I find another I will be all set.

I have passed the A+ Certification Tests. I was so nervous at the tests cause I ended up drinking and going to bed late the night before. Not the wisest desicion I've ever made but it worked none the less. Tonight, I get to celebrate with Jenn and retire to my sistter's abode in the city. It has been a good day.

Sean Gorman is alive and kicking ass on the Internet! METAL!

Looking for a job is one of the hardest things I have ever done. It involves more organization skills, memory recall, and time then any job I have ever had. Needless to say I don't like doing it, but alas here I am just six months after my last job search trying to find work. Why do you ask? I quit on principle they made me a promise and didn't keep it so I quit. Is that wrong of me? Though it is not just about the money; it is about poor micro-management, and antique technology that they don't even want to spring for parts for. There's relatively no growth and I am NOT happy. I feel I need too settle down stay in one job for awhile and feel like I am going to get somewhere. It has been two weeks now and no replies. I fear.
