Drunks Across the Hall

The neighbors are very noisy tonight. Sometimes I debate whether to interact with them or not. Then I realize it's not smart to interact with large groups of drunks especially those you don't know well. Besides they're louder then the girls in our London group when drunk (is that actually possible?) Think they are finally going out to the bars now so it has quieted down. I intend to be in bed by the time they get back if possible. Twism has been working his way through old arcade league challenges getting golds in all the ones I couldn't. Some of them are tough for even him the video game guru.

Had my interview today. It was very informative. Definitely learned as much about interviewing as they probably learned about me. Should hear back in a week or two so kind of nervous/excited about that. Not really sure what they'll say. Guess it depends on how useful they think they can make me.

Marshfield itself seems rather small-town Midwestish in a sense. There aren't as many trees alas and it's very dry at the moment but it just seemed like a bigger town compared to the three or four I drove through on Hwy 10 to get there. Not very exciting but that's where the work is. Whereever it leads me I'll go. They pay over twice what shopko pays and nearly three times my LA job. Might not be for the fall though, have to see. Tough on Alistair, would put 70 miles a day in the summer. In other words figuring 20 work days a month for 3 months plus a week in May that's 4550 miles! This not counting driving around Point or going home. My brand new vehicle will be well broken in come fall. Guess I will learn more vehicle maintenance this summer too.

Trivia is going on this weekend but I'm not really involved. Just a bystander like last year. For those of you who aren't locals or students Trivia Weekend is the one and only official holiday of Stevens Point, WI. It's the world's biggest trivia contest and it brings in 8,000 folks from around the world. Most of them though are locals from one time or another making the annual pilgrimage (Islam has its haj, Point has its trivia, go figure) back home. We really need hobbies. And still I want to live here when I graduate! Granted all I need for fun is a few people, a decent internet connection (that equals amazon and that equals books!) and I am pretty darn good.

Anywho, time to crash on this end. Night folks.
