The weekend was good to me, albeit absent of any type of job or apartment news. Once again, all the paperwork is in for the other good apartment. Hopefully this time no one will be battling for it.
The gay pride parade marched down the streets here yesterday. Tons of homosexuals gathered at the corner of Christopher and Gay to watch the forever long line of floats, bikes, and whatever pass by them. Overall, it was really enjoyable despite the heat. I remembered to put on sunblock but didn't put any in my hair so the top of my head isn't too happy. Can't wait for that to peel.
So you know how when you see pictures of pride parades you see lots of almost naked, really hot boys doing sexually suggestive things? There was little of that. The first hour and a half of the parade (I kid not) were church floats. Church floats and AIDS awareness banners. Gay friendly churches, yes - but still not what I had in mind!
Later on, though, there were some, uh, more fun things to look at. Still nothing like what I had imagined but still. We left around 5:30-ish, and the parade was still going strong. And that's a long time considering we arrived before noon.
The temp agency called me today about the medical research job. The nice lady there said they were pleased (she used the word "impressed" but part of me believes they just say things to make me feel good. It's like when your mom tells you how awesome you are) with my personal statement and want to interview me tomorrow afternoon, which is all well and good but...
Tomorrow is Kelly day! I'm insanely excited. Kelly is performing on Good Morning America at Bryant Park (at 7am - I'm not going to that, though I did enter for VIP tickets anyway). What's even better is that she's also taping a mini-concert for the Early Show! It's first come first serve and free! I'll be there early so I can get close to the stage after getting ready while listening to My December, which comes out in like... three hours!! What's even better is that I'm having someone go with me. Excitement all around. I'll just have to rush to my interview.
Hopefully, it'll go well tomorrow - both the concert and the interview. Alas, I have yet to hear back from the job I really want. I'm slowly becoming more keen to the idea of working as a medical researcher, but it's not this job. And I know my chances for this one probably aren't so good, but it's nice to dream, right? Hah, if I actually did get this position...
