Today is my second to last day in the hub o' cool. Good and bad. But I'm ready to ditch this joint. Not so ready to ditch my hometown which I've finally settled back into. Ah well. Maybe someday the ants in my pants will leave me be and I can grow roots somewhere. Preferably in close range to my family, especially the Mom and sisses.

I've been stressin' up a storm lately, which has landed me in the Doctors office an unreasonable amount of times over the last week. I'm hoping not to spontaneously combust within the next month. If I can make it through the month, I will make it forevermore.

I like to stress about things such as:
*Being gone for two weeks and my cat missing me.
*Moving to Idaho for ten days, then leaving my cat alone for a week, where I don't know anyone to take care of her (as in to pet her, she'll be fine in the food department).
*Distributing my house and outside plants to appropriate parties, and fitting the keepers in the car for three days with the cat, luggage and other valuables.
*All the food I bought a few days ago that I haven't eaten and won't be eating before I leave

I could come up with more, but I'll refrain. This is good for me. Like self-therapy. By writing all this down, I realize that I need to get a life!!!!

So again, I'm slacking. At least on the blog front. When I actually am doing in real life what I should be doing, the blog suffers. Oh well. I will be back to computer geekdom in short time, I'm sure. I need to figure out how to beam my palm stuff into my computer......

I am sifting through all my accumulated office stuff, and much of it will be relocating along with me. I love nicknacks. Well, I don't think I'm too bad, but then again....

Items making the move to Smith Headquarters:
Hello Kitty w/ tennis racket--gotten on late-night innebreated jaunt to McDonalds, thanks to Eryn
Two gaudy neon-orange Asian-y vases, bought from SalArmy for Buyer's Guide props
Chocolate skateboards Rubix Cube
Assorted Bearing toys
Pink paper drink umbrella--I love those things for some reason....
Enjoi wheels with slogans I live by: "you are an idiot" and "who gives a shit?"
puzzle-piece with a cool design on it that Sierra found in the parking lot

I guess it's pretty obvious I'm a sentimentalist--if not I'd be half as attached to all that crap.....

Sos, after much plane time, teeth grinding, and subdued hysteria, I got the job.

Whew! I'm quite overwhelmed still, and am figuring things out in my head, I'll write more when I can concentrate for more than three seconds at a time.....

more later.

new collaz!! check it out!!!

Let me know if it's too candy-coated.

I'm off to Sun Valley mañana. I can't wait to be in the mountains again. Tick tick tick.

Maybe I'm really more paranoid and spastic than I even realize.......

Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance
Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance
And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more
So I blame this town, this job, these friends
The truth is it's myself
And I'm trying to understand myself
and pinpoint where i am
By the time I get things figured out
I've change the whole damn plan
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Talking shit about a pretty sunset
Blanketing opinions that i'll probably reget soon
I've changed my mind so much I cant even trust it
My mind changed me so much I cant even trust myself

It's 09/11 today. I was going to try and avoid all the overdone media spew about "lessons our country has learned since last years attacks." As far as I'm concerned, the government hasn't learned shit, and has continued to march blindy forward, seeing how many toes we can crush in the process. We look like egotistical idiots more than anything else. Then I got stuck listening to this radio deal this morning where people were reading off names of the victims and ringing a bell for each, and I pretty much started crying. I'm not falling victim to all the patriotic slobbering and maniacal warmongering of our idiotic President and company, but I did take a minute today to truly feel sympathy for the loss of all those lives.

Anyways, on to my own personal dramas. I am flying out to Sun Valley on Saturday, and will be coming home on Wednesday. I'm really looking forward to it. Pete and I mulled over whether or not he should come, and in the end, at least for the first trip out there, I want to be able to focus on what I'm getting myself into. It should be beautiful out there and I'm looking forward to wandering around and exploring. I'm also perusing the rental market, I guess it's cheaper than Coastal So Cal, but I still wouldn't call it cheap.

The next act begins.....

Today is crazy. I'm stressing. Trying to get travel arrangements to Idaho, deciding if boyfriend will come or not. Work is getting done. Sorta. Hopefully later on or by tomorrow you can go here and check out my review of the Full Metal Edges Premier. Look in the right-hand column under "In The News." I'm a freakin' snow scenester.....

(please ignore the following post--I can't get rid of it!!!)

The madness continues. Stressing on travel arrangements. Work is sorta getting done. Hopefully by this afternoon or evening, you should be able to go posted by group Y  # 2:33 PM

I'm in a super-agitated state of mind right now. I'm tired and crabby for no real reason other than the fact that I am bored. I know I am the hugest critic of anyone saying they're bored. "Only boring people get bored!" I like to say. But fuck, I am stuck at work and I am freakin going off my rocker. One can only surf the net for so many hours at a time. 6-7 hours of keeping myself entertained via the internet is just too much. And, to add to my aggravation, the magazine is due and it's not getting done. Waiting on other people so you can get your job done gets old. Oh, and I'm poor, and haven't been eating very well the past few days. That's probably the biggest source of my crabbiness. My mind likes to trick my body into thinking it can't live on sub-par food. I know it can cause billions of people do it everyday. I'm just mentally and physically spoiled. I think I could probably pull off a fast for about 6 hours before I started tearing up paper products and foilage to eat.....

At least it's raining. Its crazy humid out and it just started puking huge, fat drops. Nice. Good thing I never got around to washing the car. I'm watching the big dust-encrusted skylight over my desk get mudded up. Maybe I'll stealthily bolt out of here and go home and take a nap. I have more movie premiers to go to tonite, I think I'm already over it. These next couple of days are going to be a long haul..... Last night's was cool, but nothing amazing.

Oh, and since I probably won't be posting til next week, the big interview/hang out session is tomorrow! Agh! If you read this, please send positive thoughts my way....

So, the Resort Guide is really behind. The bosses are fuming and it's getting ugly around here....

Tonite is my first official premier of the season, Piro's movie at the La Paloma. Let the snow madness begin!

I heart riding.......

Go to this . Really, You won't be sorry. I think it could possibly be the funniest thing I've ever seen. Sorry about the volume, it's awfully loud on mine, but it won't bother you, I swear.

Okay, so I need to get my spastic rantings pushed farther down the page........ I'm still freaking out a bit, but I'm contained. I'm glad I have a week to digest the scenario, so by the time it happens I will hopefully be prepared. Whew.

The long weekend was good. Lots of hanging out with good people. Surfed Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or rather paddled around out in the ocean. It was mushy and I was having issues. But the weather has finally gotten summer-like, amazingly hot, but it's nice. Going out with a bang.

The weather like this reminds me of what I think was third grade, this time of year, first day of school. My mom made me wear this cutesy dress, by third grade I was definitely out of my dress phase, and it was stiflingly hot, and I remember being so pouty and miserable in that dumb getup. I've been a jeans girl since about age 8. Today I've got the eighties-rocker-chick look going, I'm just missing a lace gove or overshirt or something.....

Good week coming up. All the snowboard movie premiers are debuting this week! Yay! ASR and job interview stuff on Friday, David coming into town for the weekend. And technically a three day work week. Can't beat that....
