Ok. My parets are back from Prague and Vienna and they had just a great time even tough as everyone knows it was hotter than heck in Europe. We watched the video last night and I can really say that I would enjoy a trip there myself. Anne is getting really relaxed and has another week off. We are in the final push for signatures this week and Anne and I are off to help get my dad on the IND ballot. He is already on the democratic ballot of course :).

IT IS NOT RAINING TODAY. Things are supposed to dry out by the end of the week. Things are moving along with digitalSchools.org. I got hit pretty hard by a virus on my computer this weekend. . .icky... Hey if anyone has a moment check out my friends site at http://www.leelafever.com. He is a great blogger and a guy with a very simple but profound idea about corporate communication.

Well its off to get those petitions signed. . . .

What's new Today If your reading this you have nothing to do!
I had no idea how many people were reading my bog and keeping up with things this way.  While this is great I do want you all to know that you need to get out more and get away from your computers. This weekend on Sunday we spent some time with the Larsson'  Many of the people I had not seen in upwards of ten + years.  It was great to see everyone and get caught up with things.  Eric and Lauren did a great job holding the shin dig and we are set to get together with them again on Thursday at my parents home.  We managed to snag an invite to Jenny Larsson wedding this September 21st, 2003.  We are glad we can be a part of her day and share in the family festivities. Back at the Pecunia household things are going pretty well.  Anne is finally getting some much needed rest, although she is having a hard time adjusting to her life of leisure.  She thinks of all the things she has to do in about a week and a half.		OK so I have an interview on Wednesday with a rather large and well known company for a job.  I am probably one of seven hundred candidates but we will keep positive and see how it goes. We picked up brand new Dunlap Sport A2's for tires for the car and had a computerized alignment on Monday.  I must say the new tires are pretty cool.  Sure beats sliding all over the place in the rain. Did I mention the rain!  It has been nothing less than a non-stop rain and humidity fest in New York this Summer.  Having the house to ourselves has been nice and we are enjoying the space and the time together. We are heading out for signatures for my dad this week just to see if we can fill up some of the signatures for his independent campaign. Speaking of campaigns is anyone else keeping up with this Dean guy.  He seems pretty interesting.  I like a guy who tells it like it is, is strong on a balanced budget, and is serious about reducing our trade deficit.  He was on a couple of CNN and MSNBC programs and his website has more information.  I think I smell victory if the Democrats end up picking this guy!

Anne got her
assignment
for a school today at her job fair!  That means she has a job in the
Fall.  I also have a job interview this Wednesday for a position. 
Woohoo!  I drove Anne down for the job fair and there are quite a few
decent apartments in the area close to her school that are of reasonable price. 
Tomorrow I am driving her over to the school so she can fill out paperwork and
then we are heading out for some fun with her group of fellows.  Perhaps we
will also look around the area and make note of areas we would like to live. 
My friend Eric Lorson is having a big get
together at his house on Sunday and we are headed out there for a little R&R as
well.  My parents leave for Eastern Europe on Friday so we have the house
to ourselves!  Uh Oh!  Things with Digital Schools are moving along
and it is now a full fledged non-profit.  Grant proposal writing to get
funding is on its way.  Hope everyone is doing well.  Talk to you all
soon.

 

 

Movies. Yes movies. We saw the

Pirates of the Caribbean this
weekend at the Jefferson Valley Mall with my parents.  I have to say it was
very good.  All four of us were impressed with the animation and although
the story was somewhat predictable in eventual outcome the plot was well thought
out.  Unlike some of my ramblings on this site :).  This past weekend
Anne got to relax.  She is done with her major course work for now and we
worked a little on the
digital schools site
which is really coming together. 
It looks like we may be able to procure a free server and some resources after
all.  We are working on some grants next and we will see where all of that
leads.  I am sending out resumes to companies here in the
New York
area as the jobs become available.  This morning my Dad and I spent some
time at the Metro North Train Station at Goldens Bridge and then went off to the
Shenorock (Somers),
Post office and garnered a good amount of signatures for his campaign and the
independent ballot.

This coming Wednesday Anne has a job
fair and my friend
Eric
and I will be in the city drumming up
business for our business venture.  As well Anne graduates from her summer
program for the
New York City Teaching Fellows
this Friday and I will be attending. 
After that she has two weeks of vacation.  We will have the house to
ourselves while they are away gallivanting around Eastern Europe. 

Today is very hot in New York. 
Wet and looking to head up to 90 plus degrees so we are all trying to stay cool. 
I have a couple of errands to run so the best way to reach me is on my cell (no
I'm not putting the number on the site).  I have to hit the bank, Trader
Joes and the Food Store as well as get a workout in before Anne gets home. 
I try to do all my job search stuff, business, and things in the morning. That
makes it easy to be somewhere air conditioned by afternoon.  Hope all is
well with everyone.
