I spent six weeks in Europe, two of them with my bestfriend Bob, who was there for an audition in Utrecht. I confirmed my interst in Poland, and my fascination for Italy. I fell in love with Lisbon, but was surprised by my abject disinterest in Spain the country, despite my love of Spanish literature. I then came back to LA and started a new job with HealthSmart Pacific as a Database Administrator and Applications Designer. I moved to Long Beach, but I ended up mostly commuting to Orange County. I hated commuting, as I have always hated commuting, even though driving for 45 minutes along the Pacific Coast Highway each way is oddly resonant.
