I got a new job. It's at a sports/entertainment arena near me and I will be assistant director of catering. Which is awesome for so many reasons, not least of which is that the Blue Man Group is coming to town and I get to see them (or at least work during the performance)! The bestest thing though, will be the fact that I'll once again get to ( Read more... )

There are so many things to say, but I do not have the brain power right now to talk about all of it. Birthday in NYC was awesome. I start a new job in two weeks. Let me rephrase that: My new career begins Tuesday, but I start it full time in two weeks. Here is the main reason I'm writing this, however. I have a helpful tip for other people who are ( Read more... )

I'm coming up on my 30th birthday and I'm pretty excited. I've been looking forward to it for a while. I'd love to celebrate in a really spectacular way, but I'm not good at that kind of thing. Matt and I are going to NYC for the day to visit the Strand and eat at "our" restaurant and see The Wolves in the Walls. It should be fun. Right now, ( Read more... )

Luke is getting married in two days. Holy crap. I had a mini-breakdown last night and scared both Matt and my dad with my hysterics. I'm feeling better today and even reacted fairly calmly this morning when it was discovered at work that no one actually BAKED the cakes that I ordered for the reception and am picking up this afternoon. Luckily, that ( Read more... )

It seems that when my production supervisor cuts his hair and shaves off his beard, he looks like a young Ben Affleck. Startling, to say the least.

Itchy puffy face is back. Not cool. This time it seems that mangoes are the culprit. I love food, why doesn't it love me???

I blew off work today. Do I feel bad about this? Not at all. He he he :)

I'm starting to freak myself out that there is someone hiding in the apartment. I was watching tv earlier and I thought I heard the screen door open and a footstep on the stair. I called out in case Matt was home early, but no one answered. I got my ass off the couch to go check, but there was no one there. I figure the door didn't shut all the way ( Read more... )

One of the greatest things about my new apartment is that there is plenty of space in the kitchen for food. This is unusual for me, so I've been taking advantage by buying large quantities of non-perishables and stocking up in the frozen department. Well, today was payday AND my direct deposit went through for the first time to the new bank account ( Read more... )

I finally finished Harry Potter and the Unending Trail of Bodies. I'm glad I read it, but I've never before wanted to destroy a book before this. The only reason I didn't do it is because I knew Matt would be upset. When Harry is heading toward the forest, I was so mad at the book, I wanted to rip out the pages and tear them into pieces. I think I ( Read more... )
