ok. i think i had an old livejournal account from 1999 but i forgot the password. but i'm pretty sure I have one b/c I tried to sign up as my usual handle, ondal, but it said that name already existed. anyway, i doubt anyone will read this except for maybe carolune04, my only lj friend, but who cares, i guess it's good exercise.
a little about me: I'm 31 years old and I live in LA with my brother and his pregnant girlfriend. she's a model/actress from Tennessee and she's kind of a bitch but pretty much par for the course for her type. bah.
i am currently unemployed and am not seeking employment due to laziness. I like to go fishing a lot and that seems to take up most of my time. i used to have a job a year ago as a journalist. I was living in new york and working at cnbc until i was fired for excessive tardiness. I was excessively tardy because I had a secret second job as a ticket scalper. i would come home from work at 7 or 8 pm or so and sell tickets on ebay until 3 in the morning. then i would sleep 4 hours and go to work reporting on the stock market. very stressful life so I would unwind by going to a lot of concerts in new york and would get drunk on the weekdays a lot. this exacerbated the tardiness. but I also didn't care because I hated my job and secretly wanted to get fired. but once I got fired I sort of deflated like a big balloon. I let my ticket business fall by the wayside and took heavy losses due to apathy.
I moved to LA for a change of scenery and was supposed to be pursuing a career as a screenwriter but I tried writng some stuff and find it to be a real bore. I'm pretty sure I'm done deflating so now I think i'm going to try and go back to journalism. which probably means I will move back to new york.
