Weekend Update, kinda
Let my paid LJ account expire, which is fine, but now I miss my icons. :-( I may need to delete everything and pick my fave 6 to reupload, because all of icons are angry now. Well. Many are angry! Oh, icons. The only reason to have a paid account on LJ. Well, and the polls. Those were pretty good ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Things are progressing. Got the corset and Spanx for the wedding dress, so now we can make an appointment for alterations. Went to the printer today and ordered invitations - they should be done by Friday. I have updated the website to include dinner options, and I am in the process of uploading everyone into the site so they can pull up the exact ( Read more... ) -
So much going on
Trying to balance everything is hard, yo. Because there's the THREE jobs, the wedding planning, the softball, the yoga for trade, the trying to spend time with my fiancee... busy, busy, busy. But! I'm getting a lot of good feedback from all three jobs, yoga for trade is pretty awesome (I got into Crow pose! Multiple times! Rock!), we're terrible at ( Read more... ) -
NYC and Fixing Things
Survived New York! Hooray! Went into NYC on Tuesday night for my birthday dinner. Palmer and I took the train down, because there was no way we were trying to drive in the city. So Karin met us at Grand Central and we walked through Midtown to Cask Bar & Kitchen (or something like that) where we had craft cocktails, pickleback shots, and tasty food ( Read more... ) -
Books and Travel
After a few weeks of not reading and then a few weeks struggling to catch up, I'm really excited that I'm now ahead on my goal of "Read 1 book per week" - granted, not by much, but still! I'm sure this week I'll get even more ahead, as I'm in Mt. Kisco, NY because Palmer has an IBM training thing that he's not at all excited about. He was pretty ( Read more... ) -
Better Than Last Week
So I stopped flipping out. Well, first I flipped out harder, cause oh my god they fried my hair and why am I blond, but then I got over it. Mostly. Some kind words from good friends helped quite a bit, as did the lovely weather over the past few days. Of course today is gross and shitty outside, but I was in "get shit done" mode, and shitty weather ( Read more... ) -
On Weekend Activities and Depression
Friday night we went out to a Nationals game for our friend Kim's birthday. It was a good time, the Nats won which is always nice to see. But the game was over super quickly, which kinda sucked. Whatever, afterwards we went out to U Street, where I had two too many cocktails, then over to Adams Morgan for some karaoke. Definitely felt it the next ( Read more... ) -
Job Stuff! and other things
I was going to post an update on Monday, because we'd had a busy few days before that, but then the Boston Marathon bombings happened, and I just didn't really feel like typing my random little weekend updates when all that was going on. I don't have any particular tie to Boston, but its a lovely city and I know some lovely people who live there. ( Read more... ) -
Bam!
Went out to the North Bethesda coffee shop today to meet with the owners. Before I'd left, we'd discussed my continuing to work for them, just in a different capacity. After sitting down and talking with them today, it is official - I'm the social media manager for the coffee shop! Again, BAM! We have a whole campaign planned out - well, laid out, ( Read more... )
