lost and (not yet) found May 30, 2007

i hate the feeling of losing something.  sure it was just a black tshirt that was cut ok and i liked, i wore it a lot last summer. maybe the reason it is now lost is that it needed to be retired.  someone is trying to tell me that it wasn’t as great as i remember (am i really writing all of this about a shirt, yes, yes i am).  so i had plans to wear the t shirt tomorrow. oh well, i think i can come up with another black tshirt in the mean time.  seriously, i may need to reconstruct this t shirt, simply to stop wondering where it could have ended up…

on another note, m and i are going swimming tomorrow before we go to the planned parenthood happy hour, fun fun. swimming is the only reason for me to like summer at all….

best day ever May 24, 2007

today was my day off. not that i have such a rigorous lifestyle at present, working a few hours, on the computer, for a former prof. anyway. i ran some errands this a.m., got some coffee with a friend and then headed home to work on reading the new michael chabon book, yiddish policeman’s union. it’s overdue (will i get thrown out of the club?) so i need to get cracking on it. it’s not that i don’t like it, i just notice that at home i have no where that i like to read. i don’t like reading in bed, so yeah. anyway. i read outside today, probably getting some sun too. good day. took this photo while laying in the grass.

gosh, what else has been going on? it’s been a fun few weeks, went to a surprise birthday party, the person was really super surprised, i loved it. got the sewing machine finished by d.w. love it. trust me, it’s amazing, he does such nice work.

have some lunch plans with friends over the next few weeks, that’s awesome. good eats in oakland. i’ll fill you in on where i go….

ok, over and out.

da news May 19, 2007

so, i am employed, locally too, so i don’t have to totally relocate far far far away, just will move somewhere more convenient to work. you all probably know that i like to keep the real knitty gritty details to a minimum on the blog, so if you want to know where i’ll be working, email me and i’ll hook you up with the scoop.  just know that i am super excited, a real job in a field in which i am educated, imagine that.
