I forgot that I used to write on this site. I still write at this cottoncupcakes. Come visit me there. I’m typing this with one hand because my cat lucy is asleep on the other hand so I’ll end there.

It’s a slow slow crawl

So far today I’ve had two coffees, a diet pepsi, diet iced tea and a shot of espresso. Yet at this moment I could really use a nap. This job makes me feel as though my brain is slowly dying. One day, probably soon, I believe I will completely forget how to get home from this building.

I did however use my endless hours at work to create a To Do list for the month of July. SInce there is only 11 days left in this month I thought I would keep short.

July List

1. Bake a pie from scratch

2. Dye my hair red

3. make lemonade

4. Make myself a new bag

5. Have a smores and champagne night

Only about an hour until I get to go home and indulge in bourbon, strawberries and cake. Let the countdown begin…

+ weekends

+ string cheese

+ book stores with wooden floors

I thought I saw your face today

The job search is still going on and I feel like it will never end. Its been over a month that I’ve been searching jobs on craigslist and writing those seemingly pointless cover letters. I’m really hoping this coming week I will finally get a call from someone or I’m tempted to start applying to jobs anywhere. Cleaning grease traps? Couldn’t be too bad. Just as long as it doesn’t require me to sit in a gray half cubicle and wear a headset while clocking my every movement including all bathroom breaks. I really need to find something to be excited about.

My number one hobby lately has been sleep. Blissful, unaware of the world sleep. I could do it all day if it weren’t for inconvenient tasks like dressing for work and feeding the cats.

It doesn’t help that it is current;y 57 degrees and cloudy today. Blah

Maybe sewing will cheer me up, it couldn’t hurt.

+ Batman

+ chocolate icing

+ sleeping cats

She’s not even there

I walked around greenlake today with Lucia. It is feeling more like spring is coming soon. I woke up to work at 5am today. I can’t believe anyone would ever choose to work that early.

I really want this journal, it lasts 5 years.

+ pesto bread
+ new shoes
+ days off

hum hum hum

I haven’t posted anything in so very long. I decided to end the silence. I’m not even sure when my last post occurred but I’m sure a lot has happened since. I’m vowing to start sewing again. I’m going to try and update this journal at least every other day. I hope I can do it.

Here is an old photo of me by the fremont troll:

+ cats

+ cinnamon pop tarts
+ tomato pin cushions

Things have been extremely busy lately. The weather has been beautiful and I have started working 9 hours a day so time spent on the computer has been limited. I am going to making more lately to prepare for Crafty Wonderland. I am so excited about this show and my first trip to Portland.

I didn’t really have an eventful weekend, did a TON of laundry and had one of the best salads ever. I have been reading like crazy lately.

Some of the books I’ve been reading lately:

+ books
+ coffee
+ life cereal

all around town

I have been neglectful about posting for far too long. This has been a busy month so far. I finally got a job that I will be starting this coming Monday. I’m actually excited to go back to work because I think I will enjoy this job a lot. It has a lot of perks such as being close to my apartment and the hours aren’t too bad either.

This week has included lots of fun things

lots of coffee

walks around the city

movies

brownies

I really want these shopping bags.

oh and this pretty dress

+ cheese sandwiches
+ red hair
+southern accents
