[Relief!]

gave my workshop presentation today; now i have ample time to piece together my portfolio for this week. i have much to prove. praised for having such a kick ass portfolio for last week, i am worried that i will not be able to repeat my stunning performance of "pithy wit" and "seductive" language. i will try, however. but first, a beer.

[Beer and Books]

empty beer bottles complement books nicely. Tom bought me a nice digital camera this past week. i was going to buy a cheap one just to fuck around with, but Tom wants nothing but the best for me (or the near best, or upper mediocre) and he purchased a 2-point-megapixel sony cyber shot. so i will be putting it to use for my website. while i still prefer the better quality images from my regular camera, especially for taking pictures of my artwork, it's fun to take random pictures of my cats and beer bottles and the peeling bathroom paint in my apartment. the bonus is the preview lcd screen, so i can decide whether or not to keep a picture . . . very nice.

[Long Day at Work]

currently at work. eyes straining. praying for the arrival of 5pm. or 4, whatever prayer will bring. tired, yet thrilled to be done with my adolescent literature course. turned in final project last nite, gave a brief presentation, the pressure slowly drifted off my chest - not gone for good, though.

[It *is* a Small World After All]

does it ever bother you that the world is so damn small? over the past month, i have run into two ex-boyfriends at the grocery store, a guy i had a thing with at a restaurant, and i found out that a girl i work with is best friends with some girl i know who i don't particularly like. but i didn't say anything. i acted like i didn't know her when she was mentioned. and that sucks. i thought for a second i had made a new friend or at least an acquaintance to drink and hang out with, but to eliminate the chances of me running into the other person, i better just forget having a new drinking pal. that's too bad; i kinda had a nice time last nite. needed the new scenery.
