soooo, what has daniele been up to?
well for starters i'm UNEMPLOYED AGAIN, but this time it is AWESOME! becasue:

1) I qualify and should soon be receiving unemployment benefits!
2) I've been very good about keeping myself busy:
      2a) I've applied for a lot of jobs and already have lined up two interviews, one which may send me away from new york if you've heard of the green corps, i have a second round interview with them in boston on june 20th. if i get accepted I go to boston for two months for a training program and then spend the next 10 months working on different environmental campaigns around the country. it's kinda like a mini-fieldwork/fellowship program. it would be pretty amazing but mean leaving nyc for a year.
     2b) I also worked helping jill put the benefit party for her play together, which although financially was a success was socially a bit of a disaster and involved me being a baby and getting very upset when this gal passed out drunk in my bed in a pool of her own vomit. i also had to leave the next day from newark to hop a plane to california to see my parents, speaking of which

CALIFORNIA!


that's catalina island, my fav part of california we visited. it's a pretty rad place and has a fun history.
we rode bikes, ran along the pacific coast highway, ate LOTS of seafood, and just generally relaxed.
it was really nice :)  i love my parents.

back to keeping busy:
     2c) i've been doing yoga at an awesome place near my house where it's only $5 if you go at 2pm on a weekday, which now that I'm unemployed I can do, yay! I go the beginner class twice a week and pilates once a week, looking forward to getting better so I can start doing the intermediate class they also have twice a week, so i can do MOAR yoga and have a more flexible schedule.

OTHER GENERAL NEWS:

A) i went to lancaster for easter and played frisbee golf again and had a blast kickin' t with BWNK!'s fam. i also picked up some thrifted stuff one of which was an oversized dress that i altered myself to make fit, someone's getting better with a sewing machine and i think it might be this gal.
B) right when i got back form there i went to a kickass liquor store/no bunny show at union pool and had a blast.
C) later that week i saw dead milkmen and corn mo at a place in greenpoint. it was an EPIC show; i had the shit beat and suffocated out of me but had a great time and still managed to ride and make it to josie's bday party (granted very late) after which i rode home and collapsed and slept for a long long time.

ZE FUTUR:

     702P) vetiver/papercuts this sunday at bowery ballroom
     702Q) akron/family at the same place wednesday
