Saturday: Hung out working on some writing projects for money. Saw Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and had drinks to celebrate a friend’s birthday. By the way, Scott Pilgrim is an incredible film. Edgar Wright is easily one of the most talented directors working.
Sunday: A little more writing. Some despairing about my job situation. Had a 2 hour long “interview” with a guy for an unpaid assistantship gig. I swear if he doesn’t offer me something after that I’m going to start assuming there’s some kind of conspiracy to keep me from getting a gig. Two hours, people. Two hours.
Two hours.
Monday: Monday was apply for jobs day, or more appropriate: “beat my head against the wall of underemployment until I cry blood.” Lots of applying and I talked to a guy with connections at a company I dig. He put me in their system with a glowing recommendation. So far leads from friends have lead to nothing, so I’m not counting on anything.
In addition to applying for jobs, I wrote a short story of about 3,000 words to submit to an online publication.
Also, I started talking to two more lovely young women about doing interviews for my porn blog.
Tuesday: Mostly spent hunting for work and addressing some issues with the work I have. Did some reading, started work on a new short story. Published an interview with the amazing Camille Crimson.
Wednesday: I covered the specifics in yesterday’s post. The highlights: writing, porn blog, Channel 101 NY, and fucking.
Thursday: Finished up the new short story I’d started, it’s 8800 words. Did work on the porn blog. Made breakfast for dinner. Got an email that the short story I wrote Monday had been rejected by the online publication.
Friday/Today: Woke up and lurked on Twitter a bit. Wrote this post. Plans to do some work today and then an evening having drinks with friends to celebrate my 2nd wedding anniversary, which is on Monday.
