Since my membership just renewed itself for another year I figured I'd pop in for a blog update.
I've been volunteering for the majority of my summer at The Nature Conservancy downtown. Started off working the front desk and now I do web maintenance. Granted it's only two days a week but it's just enough activity to keep me from getting too restless.
I've still been looking for work and have all but settled on trying to wedge myself in the energy engineering field, i.e. energy auditing. I've got a breakfast meeting with the president of a local energy audit company on Friday to talk about the possibility of helping him on his next big audit even though he honestly has no idea when it'll be. The only thing that really sucks about wanting to get into this career is that the training I need would set me back $2k I don't have.
Summer wasn't special. I read a lot in June and July and in August and September I spent an obnoxious amount of time watching movies and tv. There's a British series called Luther that I highly recommend.
Anyways, going camping next weekend in Michigan with a whole mess of my friends. Even though I've basically given up drinking this summer I'll probably end up drunk and dancing around the camp fire burning everything I can get my hands on. Maybe I'll share pictures.
Speaking of: I cut my hair, have a pic.
I need to figure out what I should be for Halloween. So far I've got Kaylee from Firefly, Indiana Jones, and River Song on my list. Any suggestions?
