When you have two days off and nothing to do...

I did none of the things that I said I was going to do...

I got some x-mas shopping done because I will be home for the first time in quite a few years for xmas.  So yes, it is about time to amp up the consumerism and buy some things... My gifts tend to go one of two ways... either very thoughtful and well considered or silly gag gifts.  Or sometimes a bit of both.  Those of you who have received gifts from me know that right?

Anyway I did a bit of that and then I went into Goodwill and found an awesome cozy sweater.... It's one of my favorite colors... cross between blue and purple... and it's totally not flattering.  It's like a grandpa sweater.  Here!  I found it for you!

 

And I haven't been feeling as awesome as normal lately so for the bulk of today I sat in this, with leggings and watched movies and worked on a few projects.  I've been having some weird health things lately that just make me feel kind of lousy.  

So I feel a bit guilty for not taking advantage of the day but sometimes you need an inside cozy day right?  And that's allowed in this girl's world.

More interesting things to come soon I hope.

Happy Turkey Day... ish

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving, well at least those of you who celebrated.  Mine?  Mine was excellent.  My first Thanksgiving on American soil in 8 years!  It was lovely.  I drove about an hour and a half north to be with some family who was down visiting from Seattle.  So nice to see them and spend the day with lovely people and the most food I have seen on one table in perhaps my entire life?!

Things here are still going.  I have off two days in a row this wee which is rare and kind of amazing.  So I am trying to decide what to do.  Should I drive 3 hours north and visit my brother?  Or should I stay and continue to explore San Francisco?  I haven't been taking enough pictures!  I need a photo day for sure!!!

There is this amazing shop in the Mission that's also a writing center.  Anyway, it was founded by Dave Eggers.   Have you read his stuff?  If not, check it out its awesome.  Anyway... so this shop.  It's a pirate shop.  Everything pirate.  But the way its done is really beautiful.  They also have an awesome fish tank.

And they sell things that make good stocking stuffers and cute gifts like beard extensions and this:

Anyway.  I might hang out around the Mission and then head up to visit the next day.... I just can't decide.  So much to think about so much to do.

Thanks for the thoughts!  Yes, I am doing ok.  I don't know if I will ever truly make it in this lifestyle.  But I am so glad to be in SF and I can't wait to go to London!  After that.... we will see!

Music Sunday!!!

Songs  I am loving:



She is amazing.  And look at those lips!!!  Crazy talk!  But this is seriously pretty. 



Made of awesome!  Funny and a great story teller. And yes, around 2 minutes he rhymes pocket with vomit. 




Seriously.... awesome sauce. I like things with a pinch of humor and this band has it.

Tomorrow is my day off. I will update then.

I've been alright. Downloading music like the above and bundled up in scarves and music and paintings. Solitary life is alright for now... as long as I don't run out of music, paint, coffee.

Missing you all!

Oh dear!

I find myself in a predicament where I said I would update tomorrow… and tomorrow slipped through my fingers and is now yesterday. So before I go to bed… and even though I don’t really want to… I will I will I will. But I have to make it quick! I’m very tired and I have to start work at 9 tomorrow!! But listen, tomorrow… well actually today? I finish work early so I will make a proper posting of news and plans and awesomeness. Promise… Real Time. And you know I NEVER joke about real time.

OK so quickly. Things continue to be ok. And yes, just ok. Which I find endlessly frustrating…. I am working on it. I’m also having some doubts about my actual job. About my abilities here. Trying to work that all out in my head… Have I ever told you that my head is a kind of weird place? Well it is.

Work is work though…. And at the moment I feel overworked! Things I have done this week:

Worked too many hours for me to say publically and not feel judged about.

Slept two few hours for me to say publically without being judged. (I think we’re in the less than 20 for the week…. Yikes!) I get these random bouts of insomnia sometimes and they drive me absolutely insane!

I don’t want to go into too many details before I know the answers for sure but there might be a few changes in the next two weeks which could be rather large. I’ll let you know as soon as I know for sure.

And now… for sleep time.

Xoxo
