My final class in the editing sequence began tonight. I think that once again it will be a fun and challenging experience. I like my teacher and I like my classmates. AWESOME! I will only have three assignments this term, but each will count as a percentage of my grade. And rather than doing copy […]

Last night I went through the hall cupboard and discarded numerous bottles of nail polish, old lipsticks, redundant eye shadow, clumpy mascara. I consolidated the makeup into my pretty silver cosmetics box and moved on to the bathroom, to toss bottles of disliked toner and hair goop and so on. I promise to be more […]

I am looking forward to the day when I will not live twenty yards from a KFC Taco Smell. When my front gate is not a part of the Thoroughfare of the Crazy. I was outside a lot this morning; by ten-thirty it was already quite hot out. Brian and I went to get pancakes […]

I came home tonight and just did not much the rest of the evening. Had leftover pasta for dinner, and some cherries. Watched incredibly trashy reality tv about models. Drank hot mint tea for my icky throat. Read magazines. Cleaned up my room a bit and played with the cats. While watching the Giants beat […]

On the way back I saw a billboard for some huge outlet mall. I’ve never been to an outlet mall, so I asked Brian what he thought about checking it out. Since he is Mr. Awesome, he said sure why not. The exit finally arrived, and we found ourselves driving through Michigan City, Indiana. We […]

As I learned in March, Brian is an awesome road trip companion. We only had one CD to listen to, as we are chumps, so for most of the five-hour trip to Midland, MI, we cruised the FM airwaves. Sang along to many classic rock tunes. Made up new words to improve on old songs. […]

We landed at O’Hare at night. My fear of flying has subsided a lot in the past year or two, and was helped even more this time as Brian offered his hand to squeeze during takeoff. That’s when it’s worst for me. After fetching our rental car, we set off for the Denny’s in Oakbrook […]
