He got himself a job as a volunteer at John Kerry&#8217;s Campaign office! He&#8217;ll be doing admin stuff but the good thing is that he&#8217;ll be working a floor above my office, so I&#8217;ll be close by if he needs anything. He&#8217;ll be walking to work a lot so I just wanted to say: Those of you who have honked at him while he crosses the street? DON&#8217;T. It scares him.<\/p>\n<p>I bought a tent off a woman on Craig&#8217;s List. It&#8217;s pretty much new and I got it for $60 so I&#8217;m glad, even though I don&#8217;t know how much a 3 person tent is supposed to cost. We&#8217;re going camping this weekend and it&#8217;s my brother&#8217;s first time.<\/p>\n<p>I took him to a Moroccan restaurant tonight to celebrate his job and because we wanted to try a new restaurant (he actually wanted Ethiopian food, which I eat once every few weeks, but I told him I&#8217;d take him there next week). I think couscous is a gift from the gods. I love that stuff. But the bill came out to be $53 for two entrees and I thought that was way overpriced for okay food in very small portions. The dining room, with all its couches and incense, reminded me of this sex club I went to once where I saw this magazine editor that I had once had drinks with, in a disgustingly compromising position. I don&#8217;t think I will go back to that restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, work was intense today so I managed only 2 blog entries. If work is going to start cutting into my blog time, I&#8217;m just gonna have to quit. No, I&#8217;m just kidding. Oh, god. Please don&#8217;t take away my sweet, sweet paychecks.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s mood: Michael Makes Me Happy <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8\/18 RecapMy brother arrived for his 3 week stay.
