New York for as big as it is, is so small too. I mean I was having drinks with a friend the other day and in a span of 2 hours 3 people I knew from different stages of my life walked by and chatted. It was crazy.

The job hunt is over for now. I spoke with a recruiter when I first got here who, did really work on anything for me. And then 2 weeks ago, I found another one based on a connection through my friend Logan Hart, (we will get back to him in a bit) and after a week of her working for me, I found a job. I met with the company on Tuesday and they hired me that day, I started on Wednesday and they are already talking about where in the company I will fit better. It's amazing!!! The company is called JKR Global and they are a packaging and branding firm. I am really excited!!

So I have to say the things that have happened to me since I moved here have been craziness. One of my roommates is friends with some well known folks and we have hung out with them. One of which came up for NYC Pride and we had a blast. Some of you may know her from RuPaul's Drag Race. Phoenix from Atlanta, GA. After a cancelled flight on Friday, she arrived with a terror on Saturday! We couldn't go anywhere without every woman on every corner saying something along the lines of "Daaamn girl" or a car passing by saying something the same. It was cracking me up. Then Sunday we headed out again. We did a few bars early and then head to a bar I can't remember the name of, but I will say, Gilbert Hernandez's dream came true. We ended up at some bar having bottle service with so many of the girls from Drag Race, Gilbert couldn't write down the make up tips quick enough. It was ridiculous. All in all, Phoenix is welcome back here anytime she wants to come.

Back to my friend Logan, who is currently living out a dream. About a month after I got here Logan got the call that he was booked for the tour Book of Mormon. he left literally 5 days later and will be in Austin in October and well I am looking to be there too. Can't wait to see a friend doing what he loves!!!

I know this post isn't as fun as the last but give me sometime it will pick back up!!
