Daydreaming...




Things I'm itching to do right now that are almost tangible but sadly still can't afford/have no excuse for:

1. Take a trip to Seattle
2. Throw a mad hatter tea party
3. Go wine tasting
4.See the Bond double feature at Archlight on opening night
5. Have a Spectre Reunion

For now, I will keep pushing forward... feet on the ground, head in the clouds.

Putting myself out there!

As most of you know, I do photography work on the side. Seeing as my full time job often exhausts me, I have not been trying to network for months, but Im ready to get back out there again. Ok, maybe Im not quite ready energy-wise again, but I'm ready to get out of debt quicker and that can boost anybody right?

SOOOO.... Im happy to report that I have kinks worked out with my web hosting site, and should have my site up by the first week of November! As soon as that is up, I will be distributing business cards and postcards to coffee shops, college campuses, gyms (the Y has a great board for people in the community to network), etc. If you have any ideas of where else to place these, please let me know!








I will be sure to let you all know when my website is launched! :) yay.

I had a dream..

I had a wonderful dream actually, but alas I was woken up by my alarm. Upon waking up, I realized how comfortable I was. I then look over and James is sleeping soundly. All I wanted to do was hug him, roll back into my comfy spot, and fall back into my happy sleep. Days like this I curse adult life. DAMN YOU responsibility!!!!

My brain is aging faster than my body...

I have the feeling I am forgetting something important.
I have had this feeling for about a week.

No clue. No. Clue.

oi.

Thankfully Im not alone in this... James forgot something important the other day too... the teapot. Poor teapot.

Entertainment tonight

Here is what has been keeping me entertained as of late...

Literature:
Here is the most recent update on my 2008 reading list...

Completed:
Angela's Ashes
Killing yourself to live
Wicked
High Fidelity (reread)
A Thousand splendid suns
Chronicles of Narnia 4-7 (Prince Caspian, Voyage of the Dawn treader, silver chair, last battle)
1984
Kabul
Catch me if you can (reread)
Grapes of Wrath
East of Eden (sooooooooooooooo good)

Currently reading:
Anna Karenina

Upcoming:
3 cups of tea
The Secret Garden (reread, but I barely remember it from my childhood)
The Canal House



Music:
I had forgotten how much I enjoy feeling a bass drum as if it were beating deep in my own heart. While I have never stopped enjoying live music, I have not been able to partake in it much in the recent year, and have felt my passion for it dwindle. I find it fitting that I could feel the love of a live band come back alive in me while enjoying a small and barely known group called Enation. I saw them with friends at the Whisky a go-go. While I enjoy their cd, their performance was incredible. It wasn't a high energy "show", but rather this intriguing intensity given off by the singer. Stephanie described him best with her comparison to Jeremy Enigk... something about the way he sang forced you to just stop, look, and listen.
Glorious. I was mesmerized.



TV:
Here is what I'm watching:
Heroes (sylar. david anders. plots becoming enjoyable again. so happy), OTH (laugh all you want, it is fantastical), Gossip Girl (oh manhattan), LIpstick Jungle (I wouldnt compare it to Sex and the City, but I like it), The Office (what needs to be said), Greys (has potential to be good again, but I need them to prove it).
I mostly just watch online. I still miss my tivo

Film:
Wait... are there movies being made still? I never get to go anymore. SO sad. I need to utilize netflix more.

So there we go.

oh... and how could I forget my greatest form of entertainment




we are fun :)

I had to sweep the ceiling at work.
You read that right.
Sweep... the ceiling...
Say it with me: RIDICULOUS


But at least it gave me a good photo for my 365 project

I got to spend some time tonight with Em, Jess, Alison, and sprinkles cupcakes. Delish. Also, James and I got In-n-out for dinner. Yay. Good night.

Now it's off to bed, I have to be at work at 645 tomorrow. Boo on early morning... yay on early start to weekend!
