So, Match.com . . . any thoughts?

I really don't think I should have to pay money to find a guy who's willing to date me, but it's reached that point, I'm afraid.

Atlanta was both exhausting and fun. The training seminars were exhausting, and the quality time with Thomas, his friends and my cousin Jeff was fun. I'll write about my trip in more detail later ( Read more... )

I'm leaving tomorrow morning to fly to Atlanta for the week. It's my first business trip, but since it's for training purposes and I won't be under pressure to accomplish some grandiose goal for the company, I think it could be fun. Hopefully the seminars won't be overly cheesy. There's good cheesy and bad cheesy. An example of good cheesy? Any ( Read more... )

It's one of the few things that can make me feel that way.

Those of you who enjoy art and media consumption should go to this site. Move your mouse over the patch of black all the way to the right and watch The Raveonettes' video. Not only is the song awesome, but the video RAWKS.

I get to see them live again next month! Yay!

My sister told me last week to be sure I picked up the March issue of Vanity Fair, and then today Jeff posted a link to the reason for this suggestion.

Even though I only like a few of these actors, this photography series is fucking beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. I love Alfred Hitchcock so much, and gorgeous and respectful re-enactments ( Read more... )

My dad is the manager of a few of the departments at the Super Wal-Mart in my hometown ( Read more... )

I was without cable TV or internet for the whole week, but the Comcast guy came today and installed everything. Now my new apartment is connected to the outside world! Hooray! Not too much has happened since the last time I posted. I've been working hard, learning a lot/doing more training, and going to sleep pretty early every night. On Wednesday ( Read more... )

I had to go to Providence today for a training seminar, and it was a good day. I've decided that downtown Providence, RI on a rainy day is one of the prettiest things I've seen in a while. I overestimated the traffic this morning and arrived exactly one hour early, so I found the nearest Starbucks and went gaga over the insanely studio backlot-like ( Read more... )

My first day of work went well, considering that it was quiet there due to the holiday. There's a TON of stuff that I have to learn, (I have about six different user names and passwords for various software programs), and I'll be spending a LOT of time doing training seminars, (a day in Providence here, a conference call there, and a week in ( Read more... )

I'm pretty happy right now because I got the apartment! Thanks for sending all those positive thoughts my way. I'm meeting up with the landlord at Noon tomorrow to sign the lease. On February 1st the place will be allllll mine! I can't wait. Furnishing it will be a long process since I'm careful with money, but I'm looking forward to giving ( Read more... )
