Thanks for all the good wishes. I've arrived and have a new home, new job and new car. I'll probably not be posting much until the removals people turn up with my computer tho' (should be a couple of weeks)

This house has no kettle - I can't make tea. This is nicht good.

be good,
A.

Still waiting for word on the 'roll-off' plan.

Found out some juicy gossip about our Montreal Studio from its only (hot) female engineer. Well, not so juicy, since news of the occurence that was the source of the potential bit of gossip is now public knowledge at the LA Studio.

Do you have a saucepan in which to boil water?

Congrats on all the newness! Feels great, doesn't it?

Right, this is my last weekend as a resident of SLO, so I'll mostly be getting drunk. It's wierd, I've only been here a year, but it feels like home, I'm so sad to leave everyone. I *am* excited about moving to Seattle tho'.

The bartenders at McCarthies know it's my last night, so if I get chance, I'll post some pics of how drunk...

Last night, I narrowly avoided an embarrasing situation with a friend of mine who got really drunk and spent all night coming on to me.

Had she kept it together more, I'd have probably woken up at her place this morning, due to my complete lack of willpower...

So I spent all week in Seattle looking for a place. So here's the good and the bad of my trip.

-I really couldn't decide where to live. I took a place near work, just a house share on a month by month basis, 'cos I have a feeling I'm gonna move before too long. I think I'd like to live in the city, regardless...

Jesus fucking christ I can't stop thinking about cigarettes.


Also, I have just spent HOURS sitting in front of my pc, scrolling through my music and listening to stuff I forgot I had. I do this all the time. It's great, but I could be doing something productive...

So I didn't get the job in Santa Monica - no big deal, I was pretty convinced by the end of the day that it wasn't the right place for me anyway.

So, more interview joy to follow this week...

Sometimes, the little nice things people do can make any day a good one.


Today, I have lost the motivation to do anything at all.

Chin up. I'm sure Activision sucked anyway. wink

I have lost my cellphone. Suddenly I realise how sadly dependent I am on this little piece of technology.

My ipod broke before I even left the east coast on a cross-country trip. The only refuge I have from silence is lots of country-western, classic rock, top-40 and christian radio stations.

I feel your dependence and your pain.
