christopher sent me a nasty email the other day telling me to update this for all you n00bs out there.  it really hurt my feelings!  he called me “phag”!  i cried for days, even though it’s only been about 24 hours.

*sigh*

ok, so i’ve been up to a lot, but also not much.

i spend about 50 hrs/week on work then a little bit of time during the week on fun.  weekends have been packed with tons of things.  my sister visited one weekend, the next we went on a trip to new orleans (THE FRENCH QUARTER IS AMAZING!), then boating, and on it goes.  i like doing things, but it feels like i have no down time to just veg out.  i mean, i’ve only read 3 books since i’ve been here!  that’s craziness!

so, i am half way through and can’t wait to finish.  i love my job/coworkers, but i really need portland!  although i am trying to make this halloween good (with help from my super amazing sister in law who sent me the most adorable care package ever), i know that i will not be able to fully enjoy it.  the weather down here is way to warm/sunny for anything spooky to occur.  i HAVE made a great costume though.  it’s kind of my take on american mcgee’s alice.  instead of a blue dress, i used black/white striped material and for the apron i used a cloth pattern with chess pieces (ala through the looking glass).

sorry i haven’t posted pictures, but i have no editing software down here and downloading anything more than a java update on my mom’s pc would crash it so i won’t be posting pix till my return.

HEY CHRISTOPHER: AM I STILL A PHAGGY N00B??
