Sleeping In...

Okay, I only slept in until 7:00 but that's a start.

I am back to some sort of schedule in that I'm sitting here with my coffee and watching television... I had to resort to watching Good Morning America because I can't get any sound from the Today Show... I guess Lester Holt will have to wait.

Today I am going to my WW meeting and then I think I might go up to Fairway Market to get some produce and coffee.

This afternoon is the Art Parade in Soho... James is in it. I'll post some pictures later for you all. I am also going to be meeting my friend Megan who I know from Seattle.

I supposed I should start to get ready, I want to look good for all my new WW buddies!

I guess I should go to bed soon...

Packing is done for the most part. Not too much fanfare for my departure... Maybe I'll meet my future husband on the plane tomorrow.

I'm planning on making my first grocery store field trip tomorrow. It will most likely be to D'agostinos (I think that's how you spell it...) for salad and something to drink.

See you bright and early in the morning.

Let's get serious now...

I have to start thinking about my career now.... I've been in vacation mode long enough... not that I've been hanging around doing nothing but I need to start looking for jobs in my chosen career path. That would mean Art and Teaching.

Let me see - what's going on... I have been looking at the College Art Association Website at their job listings. I don't really have the greatest amount of experience to teach.. but I suppose I can just start applying for things and who knows maybe someone will want to interview me for something.

I've been hesitant to talk about my immediate future but if I'm going to blog I have to talk about what I'm doing... I am going to New York in two weeks for a few months. I'm going to be living in my friend Maria's apartment while she is in Latin America. You may all remember her from my trip to New York in February when I got stuck there.


On my agenda for New York is "stalking" Ann Curry, getting on as many television shows as possible and running in races through Central Park. I may also do some grocery store field trips. I've started a new blog called I Heart Ann. I am going to post pictures of her as I strive to become one of her personal assistants and/or groupie.

I'm really not psycho - I'm just going to play one on tv.

I've sent a few emails to temp agencies in New York to inquire about work. Although I don't enjoy working for Lawyers that much - I'm glad I have these mad administrative skills to fall back on. It should enable me to pay some bills and buy supplies for my artistic endeavors.

Now for something completely different, my aunt Lois is coming today. My uncle died a few weeks ago and there is a Masonic service for him tomorrow. I would go but I have to work. Now, back to Auntie Lois - she's groovy. She lives in Oregon and has had many a career - Christmas tree grower, country store owner, quarter horse breeder(?) and bull seller.

She has Hamilton family feet as well... maybe if she gets a bit tipsy I can break out my flex wax and cast her foot. She wouldn't even consider taking pictures of her feet for me.... hmm - the wheels are turning.

I didn't go out last night - too long of a day to drive all the way to Tacoma.

Maybe I'll be good and go to the gym.

The inside of my eyelids are beautiful.

If I could continue to look at them this morning I would... No gym... it's supposed to be nice out today - I wish I could work on my flip flop tan... but alas, I have to work.

My friend PJ told me I should post more pictures of myself... I'll try PJ. I wouldn't want to blind you all with my beauty though.

Last night after work I went to ww meeting... a friend of mine showed up there so we went grocery shopping afterwards (she only bought good things to eat...)... I'm not going to name names because I need to protect the innocent. Hopefully thing will go well for her. It's always easier when you have someone helping you along the way.

I've been doing research for my upcoming project and am happy to report I'm getting things mapped out. I'll talk more about it later if I can. I've been searching for more races to run in and I might even do some grocerystore filed trips.... I'm excited about the possibilities.

When I grow up I want to be an Art Star.

I am trying to pull things together for an open call for Art Star.

It's a reality show that is going to follow six graduating MFA students for six months. They are going to provide studio space for the six months in New York and set us up with Gallerist and Critics... there will also be a show in Miami in December.

If I were to be chosen I could spend all my mornings at the Today Show and then go to Grocery Stores in the Afternoons. I would train for marathons on the weekends. (except for the fact that there is the Weekend Today show with Lester Holt and Campbell Brown....).

Maybe I'd work on my google project as well.

groceries

This morning I went grocery shopping... man, did I do shopping... I went to five stores and got a variety of things, for the most part everything was healthy.

I didn't get back until after noon. I had to take a bath and put on the dinosaur nightgown... not becasue I'm feeling grumpy - it just seemed that the dinosaur nightgown was fitting for today... (I was up early).

I watched Fight Club... I think I might watch Taladega Nights now... Nothing like Will Ferrell in the evening.

Maybe I'll put on real clothes and see if I got any mail. Maybe I'll just go down in my nightgown and find me a date.

Good news, bad news

Good news is that I'm up today! Bad news, the hallway in my apartment building smells like someone died in it.

Good news, I am almost done with the paper. Bad news, I have to do dishes today.

Good news, only 80 days until I graduate. Bad news, I have to figure out what I'm doing for the MFA show.

Maybe today I'll try to exercise a bit. I think I'm about due for a walking trip to Target.

Oh yeah, more good news... I finally got a Wednesday paper and the food ads come in it! the past few weeks I was either in New York or the paper was stolen...

Finalmente!

Finally I have found the dashboard to post. I still have to find a wifi place so I can use my computer to post photos.

I promise to post soon. I've been really busy eating and drinking and finding grocery stores. I have given up trying to count points....

Someone tell Jefferson I'm having a heck of a time finding his toothpaste... but I will search on.

Ciao!
