This is the "more" I referred to in my previous post



I love Lincoln. I grew up here, for crying out loud. So why do I wish to leave so badly? Well...

1) Geospatial employment is quite sparse here.

2) I desire to be part of the crowd:

Jonn - In Zambia as of September
Jarod - Currently in South Africa; NYC for grad school
Crystal - Upstate NY, then South America, then somewhere else
Schacht - Also upstate NY, then off on another road trip to find himself (haha)
Emily - KC area
Justin - As of late August, the epicenter of slackerdom (Portland, OR)
Carina - Indianola, Mississippi
Ayesha - Syracuse

I sent out something like 15 resumes/cover letters to firms/agencies in the Boston area that, in theory, may consider employing me. So far, just one e-mail saying they weren't hiring at the moment. Thank you, Metropolitan Area Planning Council.

Oh, and I applied for the CIA. Hell, I met the prerequisites.

Hope you all enjoy the picture of a girl about to get her hand bitten off by a possum (or opossum, whatever)

Oh my gosh Matt! I cannot believe you have a blog. Yes, I am ashamed that you found mine.. but alas I cannot do anything about it now. At least I know that I am not alone in this internet world... I want to see you Matt! Before you move away..

At this rate I bet that I will still be here by the time school rolls around. Perhaps.

Stuck in Bellwood? C'mon, steal a horse or emu and make your way here.

I forgot to mention how privileged I feel to have been namechecked in your blog. It's like I'm famous or something.
