		<description><![CDATA[I do. It&#8217;s pretty much all I&#8217;ve been doing lately. My life as a commuter. It&#8217;s weird. A degrading yet entitling kind of feeling. I spend two hours and thirty minutes on two trains (South Shore and CTA) every single weekday. It was pretty rotten at first, and in the beginning I thought about quitting, or at the very least closing my eyes and wishing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many know about the news, but it&#8217;s worth mentioning again. Late last week I was offered a front-end, designing position with a small company in Chicago. I start in two weeks, and while I haven&#8217;t worked a single day there yet, I believe it is going to be a place in which I can learn, thrive, and most of all, be creative. Also, turnover at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning I jolted awake to the alarm on my phone at 7:00 in the morning. This was to get myself showered, dressed, fed, and ready to catch the 9:08 train in order to make an 11:30 interview with a creative staffing agency in Chicago. I needed four and a half hours to get to an 11:30 appointment. How do people commute? But as Ben [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the last week I&#8217;ve been looking at places to apply in Northwest Indiana and Chicago (primarily around Millennium Station for convenience, but I may find myself branching out soon). I have an interview with Creative Circle in downtown Chicago tomorrow for job placement, which means I will be on the 9:08 train in Ogden Dunes. My interview isn&#8217;t until 11:30, so I can wander [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finding work is important, because it means that I will have money to pay my bills and buy myself food and keep my heat above 62, but I will talk about the dating first since more people have asked about that. The whole financial struggle is old news. I&#8217;ll get to it at the end. So, dating. The magical world of dating total strangers. Men [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been feeling down lately, and there are lots of reasons why. Financial crunch, dating anxiety, questioning myself and the things I think, the actions I take. All sorts of things. They have a way of piling up so high, so precariously, and when I&#8217;m left to my own devices, alone in my apartment trying to work on the things I should be working on, [...]]]></description>

We wrote and talked, doing what we could to make the things we needed. We need the drive, the urge, a push from all directions to make things happen. Spur creativity. At the end of 2009 I had lost the [...]]]></description>

Since 3.0&#8242;s unveiling, I haven&#8217;t really messed with any of the new stuff or realized the extent of the changes. Just looking at the new default theme TwentyTen was enough to boggle my mind, and not in a &#8220;oh, that&#8217;s so cool&#8221; kind of way. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today was just one of those days where the stars aligned and everything clicked. Or maybe it was because it was Friday and I got to spend it giggling in an office with CSS all over my computer screen, midst the company of development geeks. Days like this are just wonderful, so full of sunshine and kittens and yeah, that&#8217;s going a little too far [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Good memories of an open concept work environment. So, work today was nice. Laid back. I&#8217;m opening up and the people around me are opening up, which is exactly what I needed. Maybe the storm brought us together. It&#8217;s what I missed most about working in an office: the random noise of other people. I&#8217;ve been a part of open concept spaces for over half [...]]]></description>
