A Lot Has Happened. But Not Enough.
Things have occurred since last I wrote.
I have a bedframe now.
Neeta and I threw and Astronomy Day-themed 'hood-warming party, complete with star-shaped sandwiches, star-shaped-chocolate-topped cupcakes, a solar system mobile, etc. Our evite title? "Chart your course for AWESOME." Yes, we are dorks. And probably I watch too much HIMYM.
I discovered Gladiolus are my favorite flowers on earth.
I got a FREE and new-to-me chair from Amber, delivered by the truly awesome Jojo's Delivery in Motion, who showed up in style in an El Camino, and followed up efficient and inexpensive delivery with a Yahoo! e-thank you card. He rocks, highly recommend.
I gathered some serious spoils at a Corey Lynn Calter sample sale.
My parents came to visit, and I discovered two new artists I love, and was reminded why I love two old favorites at LACMA.
There was limited movement on the romance front.
But you know what? That is seriously ALL I have to report for the last three weeks. That is it! That is the total sum of my accomplishments since my last entry. You know why? BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN WORKING WAY TOO FREAKING MUCH.
I should have lots more to report! I should have climbed ev'ry mountain, forded every stream, followed every rainbow, until I found my dream.
I AM DONE. I can take no more. I'm not sure what measures I'll be taking, that's still in development, my ideas incubating, marinating, as it were. We'll see.
But SOMETHING has to happen. Because not much does outside the confines my office.
Which is just not enough.

Sorry to say this but welcome to the life of a lawyer. Or at least the life described to me by former classes. And hello? Why do you think I left it all? Ummm. I wanted a life beyond work.

Thank you for the post (and pics). But I still want to talk to you!! When you're not working, of course.
