Queen of Procrastination
It’s good to be Queen!
Ellen has saved me from making my own art today!!! Ellen is the bomb and a fabulous artist if you didn’t already know. I’m so flattered that she’s started her own court with every one signing up to be crowned… except it reminds me of how badly I’m lagging with my order of the spys and the whole spy emblem thing. When oh when am I going to get off my ass and get some things done around here?!!! I better hop to it if I plan to have a baby in January. I think post-baby I’ll have to cut off the free spy initiation and think up something else clever. So if you’re on the waiting list, consider yourself lucky. AND… I still haven’t forgotten the Paris postcards either. I still have the official SAJ mailing list that you all signed up on and I promise to knock something out pre-baby. Cross my heart and stick a needle in my eye!

Confessions of Playgirl
For someone who doesn’t have a real job or any kind of serious hobby or charity to devote time to, I certainly do keep busy all the time. What’s up with that? I’ve been a sort of professional play girl these days, without the men or the cocktails of course. I’m starting to think I might need to go back to work so I can slow down a little bit. Just kidding. Although… the plot does thicken on that point. I’ll get to that later.
My recent full time job of leisure found me in Santa Monica with a good friend. She kidnaps me once a year and we usually take a road trip together. This year, she went and got married and has a full time family so we curtailed our usual week trip to just two days. Two wonderful days of sleeping in designer sheets, eating delicious Thai food, long talks on the Santa Monica pier (as well as a $9 ferris wheel ride that scared the crap out of me) and of course shopping. And as if that wasn’t enough, she bought me a boat load of maternity clothes and baby clothes. I am one SPOILED ROTTEN pregnant woman.
And now I’m back. So guess how I’m going to embrace reality? I’m going to interview for a job tomorrow! Seriously. I’m actually kinda nervous. I have to get my portfolio together and dress up and everything. It’s been a long time since I’ve been on an interview. The position I’m interviewing for is not a full time job. It will be eight hours a day, five days a week… but only for a month. I’ll just be taking over for a designer who is going on vacation for a month. I figure, what could go wrong in a month? Ha! Ha! Kidding again. But I think it might be fun. I hope I get it! I kinda miss having cubicle buddies. I’m sure I’ll keep you posted.
