I have decided perhaps I've been listening to a little too much Portishead and Radiohead as of late, because I switched it up last night and put on some Mika (an old favorite) and instantly I felt more positive and in-control of my life and happy for the first time in about two weeks. It's amazing what music can do for one's mood...I should really start listening to Muse and Mika all the time because I really feel like a new person. Perhaps part of the reason for my unusually chipper mood is also because my acne meds have kicked in, and despite the raging headache I have as a side effect of the oral antibiotic, my face has cleared right up. I know it's gross, but I have some crusty, peeling skin where the zits were, and it seriously hurts to smile and laugh at the moment; this past weekend was miserable. Lol. Last night my sister and I were dying driving back to the city from upstate and I kept joking about the fact I couldn't smile and felt like my lips were going to split down the side like the Joker's if I smiled too big. "Hey kid, ya wanna know how I got these sscccaaaaars? Well, ya see... I had some real bad acne, and then I took these meds that dried my face out and made the zits all crusty, and then... my sister, she told this joke, ya' see? And I smiled a little too hard." LMAO. I think it's funny anyhow. I still haven't heard back from Anthropologie, but I haven't heard bad news at least, so whatever. I sent them a 'thank you for the interview/looking forward to hearing back' email on Friday, and they have been excellent about getting back to me, so hopefully by the end of this week I will know either way. It's such a nice f*cking day outside though, I'm not going to complain that I have it off. I really am going to finish my book this week, come hell or high water. I'm not sure what I plan to do after the fact; I suppose I will revise it several times and maybe give it to select friends/family members to read to see if they like it...
If all else fails and I don't have a job by the end of the month, I might become a stripper. Lord knows I have the moves- I just need the bolt-on titties and I would be golden. hahaha. In all seriousness though... ;) I'd probably make bank... and I'd get to utilize all of my 5" heels and lingerie... sigh. I think in another life I was a drag queen.
I have about 5 billion things (give or take) that I want to start buying people for Christmas presents, but I know that if there is no perspective job in the future, I should probably not start blowing money like it grows on trees. I am stoked that Thanksgiving is already next week.. time is flying by at a rapid rate. I spent the weekend at home and took some new pics of the animals, and the niece...
Ceely looking dapper.
Mr. B and his new catnip toy... according to my brother it looks like a Christmas Dildo. Poor Bijou...
Gratuitous shot of my abs because that's the only thing good going on in my life... jk. I found an entire stash of acro costumes dating from the ages of 7 to 12... I wore this one when I was 11...pretty sexual if you ask me. DISCO INFERNOOOO
I finally went to the hardware store and single-handedly put up these shelves that have been sitting in the corner for the past month and a half. It took all of three hours start-to-finish, and my poor little wrists are spent.
How I went about holding the shelves up while I screwed... lol. Kind of like the time I stacked three chairs on top of each other to lift a suitcase onto a giant wardrobe at FIT... I'm lucky I didn't die.
And some cougar sausage I found at the Meat Hook on my walk... I might have to get some, it's only fitting. hahaha
