doomed: the diary of an hourly partner

it's my initiative.

i've been working a lot for the film festival, and it's a lot of fun. well, mostly it's been a lot of sitting around and falling asleep, so far, but it's a welcome change after being on my feet running around serving pricks for 8 hours at benny's. i like it a lot, and i'm really glad i'm doing it.

i've also started sending out resumes to post-production houses. before i moved to chicago, i had a list of about 30 houses in chicago alone, and i don't know why i never sent out resumes to them before. i think i was partly scared of starting a "career," and also thought maybe it would be hard? sending out paper to a place, i mean, phew, that's hard. so i'm leaving bennigan's because i can't work jobs like that anymore. i'm 23, i'm smart, and i'm qualified. truthfully, i'll probably be working at the gap in 3 weeks for the christmas season. sigh. but whatever, i'll find a (desk) job somewhere. it's time to start my life. i actually could leave chicago for a couple months after the fest is over and go home, and i'm very surprised to find out how much i don't want to leave chicago.
