Ah Grant Lee Phillips, your voice is a comforting one...

It's been ages since I've posted, and it would really take too long to mention everything that has been going on...so weee, an abridged list:

• Festivals! I believe I posted after Lollapalooza, if not, oops...that was a lot of fun, as was ACL Festival. Great music, fantastic friends, amazing cities.


• 30! I am.


• My apartment is almost looking like I want. I have the guest room to turn into an office, as it is currently one massive recycling bin.


• My mom is getting married!!! He's a cool guy. I'm happy for them.


• I am officially no longer married...my maiden name has also been restored. Despite being almost 10 months since the "split", it was the hardest thing I have ever done.


• I am teaching dance at the studio where I take classes. Youngest group I have ever taught, 3-5!. A definite challenge, but I'm excited about it.


• My car still sucks. I hope to be driving something else within a month.


• Julian is fantastic. I love when he is here. The sweetest cat ever.


• I finally finished The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I'm about halfway through The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. FUNNNEEEE.


• I lost my teddy bear. I am hesitant to write about as I'm not exaggerating when I say that I am pretty devastated by this. I've had this bear forever...hopefully wherever he is, he's cared for. :(


• I overheard a REALLY FREAKING AMAZING piece of information...that I'm not going to share, but I know a few of you will be insanely happy if it comes to fruition.


• Love? I still believe in it and hope it comes my way someday.


• I have the best friends anyone could ask for. I've been really selfish with my time and haven't done the best job keeping in touch, and I still get the sweetest check up messages. I really do appreciate and love it...even though I may not do a good job of showing it.

A'ight, enough of that. Take care.

Hey friends!

Eek, it's one of those days where everyone around the office is walking on eggshells. I hate those days, especially on a Monday. I have a meeting this afternoon that I know will be a bear. roar!

Oh well...I am super sleepy today, I couldn't sleep well last night. Weeeeud.

Dave and I are working on a song, and I'm really excited about it. It's funny though, cause we were going in two totally different directions at first. Ages ago, when we actually did work on songs together we would always get to the point of finishing each other's phrases and stuff. I guess I am just rusty. Who knows. :) It feels good to write though. And to sing, lately I've felt so un-musical. :( People always ask me if I've been playing, um... no. I need to do something before I explode. Oh well.

I was looking up vegetarianism on line today and I found an article about how if you don't eat mammals or birds, but you eat fish, you are a pescovegetarian. I had never heard of that one before. So I looked it up specifically and found a bunch of websites about how pescovegetarianism, or pescotarianism was hypocritical. Who knows.

Case in point on the work thing, I swear someone just walked by my office and glared at me. I AM ON MY LUNCH HOUR....DAMN! I hate office politics. ugh. It's not a contest to see who can stay at work the longest after hours...sorry, no work speak while on break.

I still feel that I am recovering from Friday night, thinking about it makes me want to yak. Oh well!
