an update, in list form.


i'm proving to be unreliable with this whole photo thing.  i'll work on it, i promise.  i've been so busy this past week! 

1. i got a new job, phew.  working as a case manager for the ymca child resource service. wow- a job in the field that i think i want to go in to (social work)! go me.

2. the day i accepted the new job i also got a phone call from paper source for a 2nd interview, very exciting.  that's on friday.  i don't have my hopes up, but i'm still going to do it, what the heck.

3. i started on a mini-book for my sister to take with her to south africa when she studies there in the fall.  she wants to bring an album of pictures to share with her host family etc, about her life here in the states.  so i'm putting it together all scrapbook-y and cute. 

4. i just ate an eclair and it was delicious. yummm.

5. i did not do as much art as i wanted to this past week.  i have received rachel's book kit and while i've marveled over the loveliness of it, i've yet to make it, it's sitting on the living room floor in the pile of craftiness that will eventually be made in to several mini books.  why on the living room floor you ask, when i have a perfectly good craft ROOM, yes and entire ROOM of crafty goodness?  well, i have a perfectly good explanation for that - the craft room is a complete DISASTROUS MESS and there's no way i can work up there.  this leads me to number 6.

6. i have yet to be home for a period of time long enough to clean anything in the house.  i just tackled the pile of dishes that had been piling up in the sink for days. there are piles everywhere that need to be put away.  i'm just so tired by the time i get home, and waking up at 5 am has proven more difficult than i imagined.  i'm waiting for a whole weekend of nothingness so i can put our home back together. 

7. i spent part of last week in la with my best friend, alana, and her husband, sam.  alana and i went to the skyy vodka (aids benefit) vip pre-screening of sex and the city on THURSDAY (a day before it was out) in hollywood.  it was fabulous.  absofuckinglutely lovely.  after the showing there was a q&a with michael patrick king and the one and only kristin davis (aka charlotte york).  she looked stunning, and is, honest to god, the cutest little thing.  i loved the movie, and loved spending some quality time with alana.  we also went to the skirball museum and saw the exhibit on bob dylan.  it was good, but i wasn't super impressed.  oh, and how can i forget, we also ate not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4, yes, 4, cupcakes at sprinkles.  ok, it wasn't that bad, three of us shared 4 cupcakes.  they are so good.  we got chai latte, pumpkin, red velvet, and black & white.  if you go to the site, be prepared to drooooool all over your keyboard. no joke.

8. i feel like i had so much more to write about, but i'm kind of drawing a blank.
