Ok so that's a bit of a silly title but I figure it's appropriate as I am heading down to Boston tomorrow for the DNC. It should be a lot of fun, crazy of course, but fun. I'll be attending a few fairly big events and it looks like I may be in the building for Tuesday night's festivities.

So I know it's been a while, since March, have you missed me? I suppose between an insane schedule and just feeling like there was not a lot to tell despite the active life, I just didn't see the point or have the energy.
To briefly update life in the last five months. I worked for a great group of people who have a lot of expertise in issues based campaigning.

I have had the political "fire" in my belly for some fifteen years now, ever since I stepped foot in Senator Mitchell's campaign office in 1988. The fire, I fear, is out. I am 25 years old, still waiting for life to really start. I can no longer internally justify spending 80 hours a week working for pay that barely allows me to get by.

This is a direct reference to my date last night. Only I could be on a first date, having a really great time, and on the way to go to a jazz club when I took a dive, not just a little trip, but I took a DIVE, twisted my ankle brutally and could barely stand let alone walk.

So it's been a while.
A lot has happened since last we spoke, it's a new year even.
January brought many new leads but nothing solid, until the last week of it, in which I had three interviews, one which has led to gainful employment. I am working as a recruiter for a new political organization affiliated with the DNC.

Sorry it's been a little while since the last post. It's been quite a few weeks. Rescuing damsels in distress, spending a week in Maine, running across I-93, getting screamed at by a national radio personality, and working on finding gainful employment.

Apparently that's what Vice President Gore is telling Howard Dean today. I've made no secret that out of the fact that I don't like Dean, I think he's a faux liberal and that bothers me, that said being endorsed by Gore, who I don't trust further than I can throw him, makes the game over.

An appropriate question for today. I've been doing a very large amount of writing lately. I have chosen to work on a book whose attempt will be to inspire young people to get engaged politically, non-partisan mind you, I figure book number 2 can be why young people should be liberal.

The American Parliamentary Debate Association (APDA) has been a major part of my life for the last six years now.

The man is, indeed, too strong, or so it seems. I just got a call from an interview I had the other day.

Sorry it's been a few weeks but things have been very hectic, which is good
Home for the holidays, my cousin had a beautiful wedding on the Saturday after thanksgiving. Both my brother and I, and my sister and I had great conversations about our relationships.

For years now I've had periods of "alright it's diet time". I actually stuck to it for about two months once, lost nearly 50 lbs. Today though I realized something. I don't like the way I look, that negative image of myself makes me portray myself negatively to others, kills any confidence I should deservedly have in myself and sabotages my own success.

That's where I'd like very much to find myself. Yet since I've been back from my little junket south of the Mason-Dixon I find myself sitting here trying desperately day after day to write the needed cover letters for various applications.

It's early Sunday morning, I am at the office, working on coming up with a phone list for calling for the next two days. I've been working very hard, as I should be, lately.

I have to wonder why it is I always try to tell people the same warn out stories that I find funny, and most people find funny too, problem is some of them are simply fabrications and nearly all of them do not paint in a very flattering light, why then do I utter them within my first interactions with so many people.

So many of us are shackled in our lives, be it to a job, a pattern we just can't get out of, but do we choose those shackles, can we break them if we try hard enough, or are we fated to wear them for all time. I hope the answer is the former, I believe it is, because the alternative is terrifying isn't it?

Wow another title with so many meanings. First and foremost they did it, I thought "Wakefield going in game one, no way" but the knuckle broke right, the middle of the order accounted for four of the five runs and the bullpen held it together, it's only one but man what a sweet one it is, win one more and then it's up to Pedro it really could happen, you gotta believeAdamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1065589282865957352003-10-08T01:01:00.000-04:002003-10-08T01:02:15.223-04:00BACK IN BLACKBACK IN BLACK

Another double meaning there. So, this is a first, it's been nearly a week that my sight has been constantly horrific, no breaks in it at all, and yet, last night, without me having done anything different, it seems like G-d has given it back to me.

More and more I hear the west coast calling for me, sure I love Boston, and my eye doctor and many fiends are here, but I need to spread my wings a bit, go to a new place, take new chances and dream new dreams, and feel finally free of a lot of the mistakes I've made, not running from them persay but more so allowing myself to move on, I would give anything to just stay when I go Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1056734194362267602003-06-27T13:16:00.000-04:002003-06-27T13:16:34.396-04:00IT'S GETTIN' HOT IN HERE
First off, still no job info.
Roommates really getting on my nerves lately, that's probably partially due to me not having left this place much and the oppressive heat and humidity, we don't even have a fan in this apartment.

Had a major eye scare last night, I couldn't even see the computer screen, it is much better now but I was really terrified for a good few hours there. Of all times for this to be happening you knowknow? It could very well be the stress from lack of money and job and the stress about the impending trip that often raises my blood pressure and causes eye issues beyond that I'm just Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1056485682537042932003-06-24T16:14:00.000-04:002003-06-24T16:14:42.600-04:00ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK
Ok so I am officially being driven nuts. I can't leave my apartment out of fear I'll miss the calla bout the job, so I've been listening to music non-stop with both my cell and the phone at my side at all times, and of course every time one of them rings I am hugely disappointed when it's not about the job. i am not sure if this is a good sign or a bad one, I guess it meansAdamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1056396819176353212003-06-23T15:33:00.000-04:002003-06-24T10:05:33.853-04:00BEAUTIFUL IN MY EYES.
No news yet about the job, but I needed to post none the less. I had a long talk with Allison last night. I know she doesn't read this, and I know I've emailed her basically how I feel before but I need to look in her eyes and tell her, maybe that's selfish of me because she doesn't' feel that way, or maybe I am naive enough to hope that pouring out my heart will change Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1056318888946084842003-06-22T17:54:00.000-04:002003-06-22T17:54:48.796-04:00SINGING IN THE RAIN
pretty subdued weekend, done a lot of movie watching and cooking. Yesterday thought I did venture out for a bit prior to the heavens pouring forth more rain, much as they are right now. One this little voyage into the world I was in Coolidge Corner, one of my favorite places in the city, I happened to meet Rosina, beautiful name and a really sweet girl, dinner on Tuesday, Adamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5392000.post-1056178764032028102003-06-21T02:59:00.000-04:002003-06-21T03:02:10.400-04:00I SAW THE SIGN.
I've come to the conclusion that since I can not seem to figure out how to ad a title to my page I will start each entry with a song, as this is after all the song of a dreamer you read each day. NO I am not an Ace of Base fan but the song fits today.

I went to Lowell, it was boring as a funeral and a lot more sleazy. I looked my two friends, they looked at me, we said, let's go home and home we are.
Nothing really planned between now and next weekend, still don't know if Emily is coming up to Maine for the wedding, and I really can't afford to get Tom a gift but I have to.

First off I slept till noon, this was wonderful. I then went out to sweet Fenway Park. There was a fundraiser for a local charity, (ironically the same one I am trying to have employ me) and a close friend's law firm was playing a softball game so he invited a few of his friends to come along.
