a daiye in the sun

I don't remember what I was going to add to that last post, so let's move on. Two job interviews this week: one very promising (and I really hope it works out) and one not as much. In addition, Chris Ellswood -- a friend of the Nol's -- could potentially come through for me with something. I'm very ansy and anxious to start working, so here's to hoping something turns up soon.

I love fall. I love it. I love the crisp, gray days that we had earlier this week and I love the crisp, sunny day we're having today. The leaves are beginning to change and the smell of burning firewood is beginning to fill the air.* It's beautiful.

It's also football weather. Tomorrow I head back to South Bend for a big game against Purdue. I don't really like the term "must-win" -- I don't always know what it's supposed to mean -- but in the realm of must-win games for the Irish this season, this one ranks near the top. Go Irish!

It's also See's Candies weather. No, seriously, gourmet lollypops aren't for the summertime. Only fall and winter. Just ask the wine taster in Kerrytown. Damn I wish I had one right about now. A gourmet lollypop, that is, not a wine taster.

In conclusion, and in summary, I love this weather. Lastly, congrats to anyone who may or may not have recently purchased iToys. Enjoy them, don't paint them.

Cuidate.
