Day 1 and first real post

So, one of my goals on my 101 things list is to take a picture of myself every day for a year.  Hopefully this is day 1 of my 365+ pictures.  I started this a while back, but forgot to keep taking them.  I'll try to update every day with a new picture and at least a little bit of text.  My brother suggested it would be a good idea to do my picture every day in the same pose, in the same location, so that I could put them all together at the end of the year and really see how I've changed.  Unfortunately, moving back and forth between my mom's and school pretty much makes that impossible.  Maybe someday when my life is more stable I'll attempt that.

Anyway, my life is pretty boring right now otherwise.  WARNING: Boring life may lead to boring blog.  Sorry.  For now, I'm just trying to find a job, and pretty much failing.  I've turned in at least 25 applications, but so far I haven't heard back from many places.  I've had two interviews but neither one ever called me back.  Sadness.  I NEED an income, or I'm going to run out of money very soon.  Plus, I'm really looking forward to the appointment I made to get more work on my tattoo, and I would be really sad if I had to cancel that for a lack of funds.  A friend of mine recommended me to her sister, who is looking for a nanny, so I'm hoping that will work out.  It'd be the ideal summer job for me, because I love working with kids, and I'd be able to work weekdays and during the day, instead of nights and weekends like retail would require.  As he so willingly pointed out, I'd never be able to see James if I got a job in retail, as I can really only see him on the weekends.  And that would kind of suck.

So that about sums up my life right now.  My last major event was Pam's graduation party this past weekend (for the record, it takes a really long time and a lot of trains to get to Queens from my mom's, or vice versa), and my next one is Colleen's wedding at the end of July.  It's an exciting life I lead.

Please leave comments if you know of anyone who is hiring or looking for a physicist/researcher/tutor/sales associate/nanny, etc.  For the record, I'm really good with math, physics, people and kids.  I mean kids are people, too, just a specific type of people. :P
