In the life of Smash
I applied for a very cool job. The resume was approved by the first set of eyes and sent off to the next. I’m hoping for a call back this week!
T is doing a cook off with his residency mates! He made today’s meal, and in two weeks, someone will challenge his culinary skills. It was fun and delicious and I can’t wait to see what his friend creates!
T & and I also went to the GA Tech game last night and it was uber fun. They kicked the crap out of PC, which apparently, isn’t that difficult…
P.S. I will be doing a BLOGGIESTA CHALLENGE!
