I judged a beauty pageant today. How strange? I did the interview portion today and tomorrow I actually do the pageant (yeah, children in formal wear!). I was asked by Nationals Inc. a few weeks ago to do this, very strange. Yet today was oddly fun.

I'm sick, been sick for a couple of days now, but I am starting to feel more human then before. I'm all cold and wearing long pants, with the windows closed. I feel like I should look outside and see snow, when just Wednesday I spent most of the day in the pool ( Read more... )

I'm going to Chicago in the morning, my first 'adventure' as an officially freelance worker. I don't have any sub jobs tomorrow (and probably non all week) so I'm going into the city with a photographer I worked with years ago to do some street photography.

Now I feel better. They ( Read more... )

The countdown is becoming smaller and smaller. I'm down to 1 week and 1 day and I will no longer be employed, officially anyway or at least full time. This is just strange and now I'm becoming more worried. It should be ok, lets hope it will be ok.

Sometimes I get a little lonely. I am happy with my life, don't get me wrong. I have a job (or something like it), an amazing son, a roof over my head etc. etc., but sometimes I just get a little lonely. I suppose this is normal. Part of me thinks it would be great to meet someone and have a little affection and attention, but the other part of me ( Read more... )
