This is my dream job


Right now I’m sitting in the corner of a conference room inside Dave & Buster’s. I’m sipping an ice cold Dos Equis and using the free wi-fi while a roomful of business types does their networking thing. I’m here for work, a side job. In a little while I’ll get up and hit the record button on my camera. Then I’ll sit back down for about 45 minutes and continue sipping my beer. Phew, hard work. I wish I could get three of these gigs a week. I’d be set.

UPDATE: So it didn’t go quite as easy as I’d hoped. The forty minute presentation dragged out to about eighty minutes (tapes are sixty). The microphones weren’t working, so I’ve got audio that barely goes above the background noise of video games and music. And the second speaker didn’t believe in podiums so he just paced back and forth while he spoke and I had to chase him around the room by panning back and forth. The tape could be a disaster, I haven’t brought myself to look at it. Oh, and a tree limb fell on my car because I got the only space with shade. Sigh…still, I was in a good mood. Oh, and Sarah and I got a new apartment. Posts on that to come soon!
