I have been here in NH for about a month, and in a way I'm still in "vacation mode." No job, and the days are filled with whatever-I-feel-like-doing. I'm all unpacked, and my room is set up to my liking, though overall I don't feel quite settled. My parents' house is full of random stuff, which is either theirs that they've let pile up (papers ( Read more... )

It's been a busy few days! Friday, my parents drove down to NY. We went over to the barn to see Dice and square things away with Ray and Diana, then out to dinner at a fancy little bistro with excellent food. I got a coffee custard thing for dessert, and it was served in a coffee mug. It was like eating a cup of coffee, which kind of reminded ( Read more... )

Maybe I shouldn't have had coffee just before midnight (although I was avoiding drinking more wine, so I guess that's a good thing). Well, it always takes me a while to wind down from being out with friends, but usually when I finally get to sleep, I am out... but today I kept waking up with the sunrise. Emma whining at me nonstop wasn't helping ( Read more... )

Here is that mini-documentary James made, that I mentioned earlier... I actually sound a lot better than I expected musically (I guess the shaking in the voice thing is not so obvious as it seems to me), and I would like to think I'm awkward in a cute way. Right, right? ;) You can also get an idea of how goofy and fun my Lena friends are, from ( Read more... )

The past few days have been busy, in a good way. Lots of people-time... I've been out/with friends 3 of the past 4 days, which must be some sort of record for me lately. Well, not counting trips, that is. As I've already written about, I went to Jitters' open mic on Wednesday... then Lena's Thursday, dinner and a drink with Paul Friday, and a ( Read more... )

Now that my moving day is getting so close, I have been making a point to reconnect with some friends around here... something I have been meaning to do for quite some time--who knows how many lj entries I've written in the past year in which I've said something like "I really need to get back out to the music scene" or somesuch? Tonight I made it ( Read more... )

Now I remember what I was going to open yesterday's entry with... well, not word for word, but it had to do with UPS Men. My Favorite UPS Man that delivers to work, whom I haven't seen in ages, showed up yesterday, and I was all, no fair! He comes back in my second-to-last week here? Boooo! Hahaha. For the past few months it's been the young, ( Read more... )

I had an interesting lj-entry opener line in my head when I sat down to write, but now I have absolutely no idea what it was. So you are left with that utterly non-clever and useless, painfully honestly lame, opener line. Better luck next time ( Read more... )

Elephants can paint?!?!?! like... really paint PICTURES of stuff, not just splash paint around all abstract like. It took me a while to believe this was real, holy crap! Elephants kick ass!

Walruses are pretty great too.

So I didn't get my laundry done this weekend like I meant to, but I DID finally write up my journal from that trip to Boston back in March! I slapped on my favorite photos, so it might be worth a look even if you are not inclined to read my lengthy babblings. ;)
I miss you gals--you know who you are! *hugs*
