Manch Vegas

After couch surfing without an apartment to live in and spending a few days in Philly for a conference, I am finally settled into my apartment. Two of my roommates are from different parts of Michigan but seem to be pretty cool. The other one is from North Carolina and he's a bit of a handful. Overall, not too bad a mix of roomates.

I'm just finishing up my first week of work at the City Clerk's Office. I spent the first two days being shown the city by two former police officers that work in my office. They showed me all sides of Manchester. I was enlightened on video poker gambling("ManchVegas"), licensing every type of business possible, and the many issues with neglected properties. These past three days I've just been sitting here on my ass with nothing to do because the guys I work with are at some training thing. Hopefully next week I'll get a little more done.

I miss you all and I miss Ohio State but this is a very interesting place and I'm looking forward to the experience. I don't know if I'll make it back to Ohio until the holidays but if I do I'll let you know.
