I have been very productive the past couple of days. It's good, because for a little while, I was falling into a slump (been working a lot, the weather is cooling down, stress from money and things, etc.), so it feels nice to be able to get the things done that need to be ( Read more... )

I am finally drinking my $6 wine that joannaknits was so kind enough to bring over her corkscrew to open. MMM, I love me some $6 pinot noir. It really isn't half bad! And the wine is helping me to relax after one of the worst weekends I have dealt with. Because aside from hanging out with McCall and Joanna, this has been one weekend that needs to be forgotten ( Read more... )

Today was lovely. It was extreme Autumn weather outside (windy, rainy, and grey), but lovely still. I wore my toggle buttoned pea coat, and youampersandme met me at my house. We had only met for a brief moment at the zine symposium this past Summer, and decided to finally hang out. McCall and I drove up Hawthorne and got crepes at this adorable little creperie.

My sous chef bought myself and the other prep guy tacos from across the street, and then my other sous chef made all the staff amazing Greek food. I know, a Pan-Asian place making ( Read more... )

This afternoon I have been downloading music (Sigur Ros, Xiu Xiu), eating soup, being sniffly (maybe I am not over being sick), and updating my Amazon wishlist!. The things I want the most are all the Philosophy products (but mainly the pumpkin and gingerbread scents!), and the polaroid film. Oh, and My Girl on dvd. Sorry to sound all, "Want want ( Read more... )

I just worked over 10 hours. I am getting to do more stuff at my job. My chef told me she loves me today, and that they talked about me, and how great I am. I have had an amazing day (pre-work...work was hectic!), and now I need sleep ( Read more... )
