Well, It's Saturday In The Big City

Well, it's Saturday at 4:39 pm local time and I'm
watching The 13th Warrior on FX in my room via the
Sling Box that I have in
the U.S. I slept in today but then went to the
bank to withdraw about
fourty pounds so that I had money for food at
Tesco to shop. I bought
about eleven pounds worth of food and
replenished my bread, coke, etc. supply. I
don't have any plans for tonight really. I was
invited to go to someone's party at a flat
somewhere in London which is nice and sweet.
I'm tempted to go but I'm not in the mood to
go out and it will save me almost six pounds
or about twelve dollars. There will be other
times to do things.
Yesterday I went to a job interview with Creation Marketing and then I went to the Apple Store to inquire about a position again. I would still love to go and work there. I'm keeping my hopes up. I stayed for the Leopard release at 6 pm (they closed from 4-6) and waited in line. I was about number twenty in line out of at least 1,000 people standing around the block. The line went to hell no thanks to security as by the time they opened there must have been 100 more people that forced their way in front of us. I think they needed to practice a bit more. I got a free t-shirt out of it and met some cool people that knew what I was talking about when it came to technology. With as little clothes that I have, a t-shirt can go a long way.
I'm still shopping for a good price on a desk and chair for my computer. I think my first major purchase here (eventually) will be a projector for movies, etc. so that we can all sit around and enjoy a nice evening in.
Well, I think that's enough for now. I just wanted to update my blog a bit. Sadly I've not taken any pictures really. Sorry about that. I'll try to take some soon.
