Observations

• Somehow am managing to be in everyone’s way at the grocery store. Kinda stressful. Why is it packed anyways? #

My current pocket sketchbook from A.C. Moore is falling apart at the seams and the corners are worn. So on to Amazon and ordered a Moleskine sketchbook to match the notebook. It’ll be less bulk in my apron pocket. The current sketchbook I’ve been using since 12/11/2007 and still has 34 pages in it.

Or maybe I’ve just been sucked into the Moleskine cult…

• Going to buy 2 new tires today for my car. The back left one kept going flat. And now Dad is telling me I’m going to go alone. WTF. #
• Dreamed Johnny Depp died w/2 other actors in a film accident. 2nd time I’ve dreamed it. If I was into celebrity death lists, he’d be on mine #

I need to go to bed in a moment, but I thought I should update on why I have shown any creative output recently: I’ve been ill. Over the week around Christmas, I was out and about nearly every day seeing some friend or family member. Since then, I’ve taken to being feverish, upset stomach, and feeling lethargic. I have to work later today so I need to go back to bed.

I hope you’re doing well.

• I got promotted! Twice as much mulah! #

My grad school application has begun to be processed!

I spent last night at my friend’s house bringing in the new year’s via cooking. Her clock is five minutes fast so we were “Happy New Year!”ing too early and then exchanged an awkward pause when cheers erupted from the neighbors. We cheered in the new year with champagne and a rather unsettling anime.

On a more upbeat news I filled out the paperwork today stating that I’ve officially been promoted! I start on the 17th. The list of responsabilites is very, very long which surprised me. I’m excited because this will double my monthly income. I intend on putting a large portion of it into savings. It also means my diabetic cat can get this month’s blood test done now.

The other exciting thing for today was my high school Latin teacher came through my line. We chattered away like birds until other customers came along. I’ve missed her though it doesn’t seem like time has passed at all.
