So, let's talk about my life. I moved to Jersey City, because a close friend (and my roommate from college) was going to be teaching here, and it would not be a bad commute for me to work. Teaching didn't work out for him, and now he's looking for ajob. He got an offer near Baltimore, a little difficult to commute from here. He hasn't accepted the offer yet, but if he does it'll be a pain in the ass for me. I asked 2 friends to take his room if it happens, and both declined. I cannot afford the place by myself (Hey, NY area is expensive). I am not thrilled with the potential for a random roommate, have heard too many horror stories. I just don't know what to do if he accepts the job.

yeah, he's responsible for the rent if he moves out, until there's a subletter

My Boss

So, I've been at my new job for a little over 4 months now. I have to say I am very happy there, and one of the main reasons is my boss Jim. The main thing I like about Jim is the fact that when I do something good or important, he'll say "Good Job" or "Thanks a lot". Go »

Karaoke

So, last night a few friends and I got together and went to a Karaoke Bar on Christmas Eve (what else will Jews do). We're sitting down enjoying a few beers, then my friend goes. "I think Eli Manning just walked in and sat next to you". Go »

Moving is not that bad

all moved into my new place. Getting cable was not too bad, and my couch comes next Friday. In other news, I get a letter from my rental agency, it seems they misquoted me on rent, they over stated by $69/month, so I got a check for $138 from them... Go »

Been a busy few weeks

Wow, don't you hate it when life catches up. My new job is going great, busy as hell. I have also learned more about sales tax than I ever thought I would need to know, and programming software to do this is a pain. Go »
