Lovely Autumn Day

Today has been absolutely fantastic. I woke up nice and early with the sun streaming in through the windows. I love having an east-facing bedroom. It makes waking up so much easier. Since it was early, and relatively nice, I actually got myself out for a walk. I want to get back into my running, but I’m going to take it nice and slow, so today was just a brisk walk around the park, with just one minute of gentle jogging thrown in.

Then I took a shower, ate breakfast, puttered the net, and had a nice relaxed morning. I got another load of laundry done, and got my sheets washed. I will say, sun and wind dried sheets are the very best smelling things ever. I like line drying my clothes, but I have to admit, there are some days I really wish we had a working dryer. Especially for the wrinkles. I totally reconnected with my love of ironing today as I tried to get some of our clean stuff put away.

All in all, an uneventful day. Keep your fingers crossed for jobs for the BF and I.

Just to get it in

I’m not actively trying for a post a day, but I figure it’s not a bad goal to aspire to. So here is my sad, pathetic little post for the day. I also got a little over 4000 words written for my last minute attempt at NaNoWriMo. Wish me luck!

Google Wave

I just got my Google Wave invite. I’ve got invites to send out to other peeps if they’re interested. Watch the overview, and tell me if you’d like one.

Ressurection

I’m not exactly sure about this venture, but I figured hell why not. A year and a day ago, I put this blog to rest. Today, I’m bringing it back to life. I don’t know if anyone still has this in their feed, or checks it at all. I’m not even sure what I’m going to write about, but it’s here, I’m here, and I’ll write something. Leave me a message if any of you all still poke your noses in once in a while.

The End

At least for the time being, I’m done posting here. It’s been a crazy year, with lots of ups and downs, and I’m sure the next year will be more of the same. Ups, downs, good times and bad. However, the reasons I had for writing here all pretty much no longer exist. So it is with happy anticipation for awesomeness in the future that I say farewell to whoever may be left. I believe everyone who still reads this blog has some way to get ahold of me. With maybe one exception, but he should know he’s always welcome to drop me a line, or a call, or whatever.

I Want a Dog

This made me laugh right out loud.

Mass Goodness

Lots of good stuff going down today. First and foremost, I’m done with the Messiah concert. There were a TON of people there last night. I have never seen the theatre that full before, ever. We got started almost 15 minutes late because we were trying to pack people in. I wore a skirt and hose for the first time in probably a year. I got compliments, and even got told no one would’ve know I was wearing hose if I hadn’t said anything. Which means they thought my legs really looked that good! And that tan! Confidence booster WIN! And thanks especially to Anna, who took me shopping last minute to find clothes for this thing. I got the skirt, a black turtleneck with sparkly thread all through, and a faux suede browncoat all together for less than $20. Plus I got paid last night, which always, always helps.

Later today I’ve got a production meeting for the next show I’m doing. I’m feeling pretty good so far about the way I’m handling things on this one. I still don’t think I’ve got the whole thing down, but I feel pretty in control, and I don’t think there’s really anything I’ve dropped the ball on, which has happened before. This will probably be one of my most challenging management experiences, so wish me luck.

After the meeting I’m headed down to 5600 south to meet with a woman who teaches voice lessons. We’ll see how that goes.

My kitchen floor is mopped, the sink is mostly empty of dishes, and I have clean clothes to wear. Life is pretty freaking awesome at the moment! Hope you all are having as good a time as I am.

An Odd Thought

It just occured to me, though it should have long ago, that I’m probably just as strange to my sister as she is to me. We lead completely different lives, and we’ve acknowledged our differences to each other readily, but it has never really sunk in that she probably sees me as the odd one. Oh well. I don’t think it really affects anything. I do think she’s pretty freaking cool, and I wish we could see each other more, but she’s usually busy doing all this achieve-y stuff, and I sleep odd hours.

Random Updates

I just found out my Xbox 360 has been received by Microsoft, and they’re now in the process of repairing it. Woot. I bought a pair of nylons today for the first time in easily a decade, and my legs are going to look great in my new skirt. I’m rapidly losing patience with my hair. Sexual harassment isn’t fun, but knowing someone’s got your back helps a lot. I did all the dishes. Again. I sent of an exploratory email to a potential voice teacher. I should get a call soon to set up a first lesson, where we’ll decide if the pairing is right. I think I’ll ask for lessons for Christmas.
