I’ve actually got to pause for about 10 minutes shortly to play the online version of WSoPC (World Series of Pop Culture) – I could win $2500 if I answer all 25 questions right!
I do have a lot to report on though – well, it’s really just my overall thoughts of how Chicago’s hiring conference went; but also about what’s been going on with my job search since I’ve been back. These hiring conferences got me very motivated. But first, I’ve got some Chicago pictures to put up because I’ve been ordered to stop being lazy. After doing that, then I’ll get to the latest in my job search. And then finally, I’m going to sleep!
As you’ll see in the pics below, there’s a LOT of scenery shots. New city=takes lots of pictures’ scenery. BTW, the damn Trivia Dome online game on VH1 totally didn’t work tonight. LAME.

Okay, I’m a dirty liar. I don’t have the awakeness to write up all the other stuff going on. But perhaps I’ll have even more information to share at that time! Quick newsflash: I saw Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and it was excellent. Very good adaptation of one of the more difficult books, and I was thoroughly entertained!
See what happens when I watch random TV channels? I’m watching G4 to see stuff about the E3 show in Santa Monica and now this crazy ass show called Code Monkeys is on and I’m cracking the hell up. It’s in 8-bit graphics and is totally hilarious.
