sooo... its saturday night. which means i work 2 jobs. so i go to nature's fare from 10:00 to 6:30. and then after that the radio station (i'm actually supposed to start here at 6, but i can't get here that early) until 11:00. i hate saturdays, and i don't think its too hard to see why. i get up in the morning, usually make tyler and i breakfast, and then either he takes me to work, or i steal his car and take myself... or if i feel like it, i bike. which means he has to come and pick me up at 11 (which he isn't too keen on considering its WAY past his bedtime). not to mention working at nature's fare in general is continuously getting worse. i close 4 days a week, and closing the deli is no walk in the park. they are always trying to make me do more things in less time. by the time i finished today i was thoroughly flustered and sweaty and just straight up pissed off. and then it was time to hustle my butt over to the radio station to sit myself down in a soundproof room and talk into a mic about things i don't usually give a shit about and sound extra cheerful! woo! love life.
anyway. thats my rant.
i think i need to take a few solid days off. working 7 days a week with a couple of 12 hour days in there is too much for me. i don't have any time for all the projects i want to get done. which i can't even start until i go out and find some stupid feet for my sewing machine, or another, working, used sewing machine that comes WITH feet. that would be convenient, no? i have so many things sitting on the table in my not yet put together sewing room just begging for me to work on them. or mend them. or whatever. speaking of which...
laura: i recently got my bangs cut in the classic 50's pin up style, straight across, but with a curve. its pretty cool. i woke up bummed this morning, and so i put on red lipstick for work and felt pretty jazzed. i got told by an older woman at work that i reminded her of old pictures of her mother, and continued to talk to me about the fantastic clothes her mother would wear in these pictures - polka dots and fitted dresses. sweetheart necklines, and cute little pumps.... so now i have a new goal. i really want to make myself (whether it be through altering an existing piece, or completely fabricating my own) a dress like this. and doll myself up like that... and THEN we can take pictures. what do you think about that?
the house is coming along, slowly. and i love it. its so nice to have space to make my own. tyler and i are working on painting a few rooms right now, and of course getting an oven put it. the oven is turning out to be quite the task. we have been given a few options from tyler's electrician friend (let me tell you... having a boyfriend in the trades is the BEST). one of them was to actually put in an entire new electrical board or whatever... which is a huge task. because i guess everything is really old and messy and we aren't sure if there can be a breaker found for it to have enough to put in a breaker for the oven. such an ordeal. i just want an oven already. i want to make cookies. lots of cookies. and freeze them for whenever i might feel like eating them. haha. i think maybe i'm just really in love with the idea of having a freezer full of fantastic things to eat. but who isn't?
anyway... i should probably focus on what i'm supposed to be talking about on air... because i think i'm coming off as an amateur right now. haha.
TOO MUCH GOING ON ALL THE TIME!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

jeez. that's insane! If that's what's going on, I'd say you need more than a few days off. More like a month. How have you NOT gone crazy yet??
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of those bangs...
I agree, I think you need to have time off. Don't even think about working on Wednesday this week. Just don't. If you want to do something, come over and we'll can tomatoes - the ones that I ordered for you. But it will have to be the PM because Rhi has lessons in the AM.
