“Labor” Day
I love that it is called Labor Day, yet on this day everyone takes off work.
Things here have been going well. I have been working at the mutual fund company I mentioned earlier and that is cool. Working nights keeps me open to hit auditions during the day and they have a pretty flexible schedule. [...]
