Calling All Ideas!

My therapist and I have estimated that I've got about a month left in treatment- two weeks in the PHP program (9 hours/ day) and two weeks in the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP; 4 hours/ day). I plan on picking back up my internship at the World Trade Center, Denver, but have no solid plans for a source of income or living situation. I wanted to solicit ideas from all of you, my brilliant friends and family.

On the job front: I swore that I would never return to restaurants. I am looking for unique, fun ways to meet new people and supplement my international studies/ leadership/ business/ Spanish skills. Things I've considered are working at a gardening center, being a Denver tour guide or corporate tour guide, working at the Littleton History Museum as a pilgrim, and picking up a paid writing gig. I'd love to work outside or with international visitors. Let me know if you have any ideas!

On the housing front: I'm considering moving in with a guy who went through treatment at the ERC, but am a little unsure about how that relationship might work if one of us were to struggle. So I was going to keep my options open, looking for another roommate among friends and craigslist. If you know anyone who is looking for a 6 month-1 year lease, is responsible and clean, but also someone I could be friends with, please let me know. I do not want to live alone again. Then, if you know of a place in the Capital Hill area that between $700-$1,000 per month, I'd love to have a look!

Thanks for any advice, feedback or leads you may have!
