Well the job hunt drought continues. I went into another branch of one of the temp agencies to see if maybe that would help. My gut tells me that they don’t have much going on either.<\/p>\n
Last night I went over to a friends place for a dinner & movie party. This was a few of the folks from our regular dinner group…plus a few other friends of the hosts. It was a great time of food, wine and conversation. Something I really needed for sure. We watched a documentary about struggle for the South Central Farm<\/a> (official site here<\/a>) here in LA. The movie was called The Garden<\/i><\/a>. The film was good, though definitely biased towards the farmers. It’s still crazy to see the aerial shots of the site when the farm was active compared to what it is now. I actually remember passing by the site while on the light rail to Long Beach a few weeks ago, though I didn’t know that’s what it was at the time. Now its just a fenced off plot of dirt, seems pretty silly.<\/p>\n The biggest excitement of the week had to be the 5.4 magnitude earthquake this morning. It happened at 11:42am. I was sitting at my desk and all of a sudden the room started shaking. It took a few seconds to comprehend that it was an earthquake and by then it was pretty much over. Nothing fell over, not even the books i have stacked on the floor against one of the walls of my room. It definitely got the blood pumping though, and was the talk of the news for the rest of the day. They’ve been saying that this is a wake-up call for Southern California, which hadn’t experienced a earthquake of this size pretty much since the devastating Northridge quake in 94. The “big-one” is still coming geologists stressed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well the job hunt drought continues.
