I signed up for a class at Bellevue Community College Continuing Education department called "Drawing in Color" We get to work with pastels, colored pencils and other non-wet mediums. I'm really excited. It's once a week for 3 hours a night and that should be something to give me a project to work on for the rest of the week. It's 8 classes ( Read more... )

What a wonderful Christmas. I still have not seen Wonderful Life, but perhaps I will netflix it before next year. Christmas was filled with practicality this year. Mom's theme was "survival, survival, survival": meaning I got 5 flashlights, waterproof match boxes, emergency candles, etc. Oh goodness, bless her heart. But she went OVER BOARD. I didn ( Read more... )

Thank you for my wonderful friends that commented. It's funny really. You all told me what I needed to hear... that this is not the end of the world and that it will all be okay. It always ends up being okay. Oh girlfriends, how I heart thee ( Read more... )

Damn I hate reruns. I was really looking forward to a new episode tonight. Oh well. So I've started playing World of Warcraft. I have four characters going but my favorites are my human mage and my night elf druid. I enjoy playing. It is really really addicting ( Read more... )

Grandma picked me up from the Missoula airport and brought me back to the house. We hit a little turbulence on the descent but it wasn't too bad. Adrianne ran out of the house yelling she knew that it was me. My grandma has tried to surprise everyone but the fact she was so secretetive threw them closer to the truth. This was a get together for ( Read more... )

I am joining Katherine at work tonight so I can paint some pottery for mom and Deborah for Christmas. I figure I'll paint them each something for their kitchens. Hmm, I dunno. Mom isnt in the kitchen very much. I'll have to find something appropriate for her that she can use and not worry about having anyone break it. It will be fun to start on ( Read more... )

Oregon play Arizona today and unfourtunatley they don't televise it up here--poop! I have on my duck colors and everything. Running errands mostly today. I work at Starbucks tomorrow.

A giant white rabbit walked in to the room and I thought I had just stepped in to a scene from Donny Darko... then I realized it was a high school boy in a rabbit suit trying to freak me out.

He did a good job.

Anyone who has had to look for a job understands how entirely draining it is. I hate looking. I want the magic job fairy to swoosh in here with her fairy dust and wave it around me and POOF, I will be sitting at a desk making lots and lots of money. Don't we all wish we had a fairy like that ( Read more... )

Seattle... and that's where I'm at right now. I'm reading a book called "the curious incident of he dog in the night-time" by mark haddon. It's a fiction, murder mystery written in the perspective of a male, idiot sovant. It's really good so far. I'm enjoying the writing style. Katherine's family has a wonderful variety of books that I'll read ( Read more... )
