holy crapola it's almost june!

hey everyone!

hope y'all are doing good. i'm fine.. but i've been having some issues lately. the past couple months i had these dizzy spells in the middle of the night where i would wake up and throw up, go back to sleep. it happened twice two months ago and again on monday night. yesterday at work i got really dizzy for a couple of hours and had to leave work early. i don't know what's going on but noooooooo i'm not pregnant! hmph, all i know is that i hope they go away soon. getting dizzy is the worst!! bleh.. i don't want to go back to the dr because i was just there last week to get a physical and i only get 4 visits a year. hmph, i hope it all goes away.

this past week has been fine other than that. i got an e-mail the other day for a 'testimonial assistant' position. i would sort of still be doing admin work but for a production company that does 'proactiv' commercials and other infomercials like those. it would be a part time job, but i think it would be a great learning experience and definitely a step in the right direction. i had a phone interview with them today and i think it went pretty well. i don't know, i'm not going to get my hopes up about it like i did the last time, but i'll keep you guys posted. they said that the next step would be an in person interview, there might be one or two of those. but, i'll get an e-mail from them letting me know if i get an interview! i'll let you guys know!

wednesday tory and i went and saw 'the national' in concert (they're a band!) it was sooooo awesome!! they are sooo good and it was nice to have a night out with just me and tory :) tory had gotten me tickets for my bday! he did good!! we had a great time and it was in oakland so we were able to drive there and get home in 10 mins! that was really nice. i like going to concerts, i'm sure we'll go to more in the future, it's hard to say no when so many good groups come here to play!

phil (tory's friend) has some guy friends in town this weekend, so i think we might hang out with them tonight. the boys are all going to a san jose earthquakes game tomorrow night for a "guys night" i think they'll have a great time! i'm going to hang out with my friend megan, who i worked with at jupiter for a while, so that'll be nice! i'm looking forward to having some chick time! then i have to spend the rest of the weekend cleaning and getting everything ready for becca and brittany to come!! i'm so excited to show them all around where i'm living now and what i'm up to! they'll be here from june 2-7th. i can't wait!!!!!!! we're going to have so much fun! one day we're going to go to napa and do this bike, ride, and dine thing where you ride bikes between the wineries!! i think it should be a bunch of fun and i've never been to napa before so i can't wait!!!!!!! wahoooooo!!!! i'm sure they'll have a blast! i'll make sure that they dooooo! then after they leave tory's parents will be in town with some friends, so that'll be so much fun! i love it when they come to visit!! :) then after that we'll be back in ky for a few days and then back here and tory's friends, scott and erin come in from colorado! we're going to be having a super busy june!! it'll be nice!!

well i hope you guys have a nice long weekend and have monday off!! it should be a nice extra day off!! i can't wait!!

love and miss you all,

blah

helllllllloooooo

i hope everyone is doing good. i'm doing fine. i'm just tired and bored out of my mind. i'm so tired of this job. i've been applying for other jobs, got an interview for a job that would've been perfect for me.. admin job at a production company, went to the interview, it went great, they gave me a ridiculous amount of homework that took me from 5pm-midnight.... long story short, didn't get the job because i don't have enough "experience" blah. i'm so over working. i feel like just taking off a year and helping out w/tory and his production company doing random stuff, but i wouldn't be able to afford it. blah. i just hate this job so much. i hate talking to one or two people a day for like 5-10 mins tops.. like i can't handle it anymore. i NEED to be busy. i NEED to be doing stuff... i feel like i'm just getting dumber everyday that i'm here. blahhhhhh i hope i find a job that works for me sometime sooooooon.

hmph.. i've been in a bad mood lately ever since i didn't get the job and haven't been able to snap out of it. i feel like i get upset everyday and it's just sooooooooooo annoying. i don't know what my problem is, but i hope i snap out of it soon. at least brittany and becca are coming to visit soon. that will be nice to be around some friends. i feel like i have none here. and esp with everything that is going on with me, i need some good chick friends that i can hang out with... and i just don't have any. i don't feel like writing anymore, i'm just too negative lately.

hope everyone is doing great..

some pics

this is our serious smile pic before CONAN!!!! tory looks like a deer in the headlights.. hahaha.. my camera sucks at taking pics, so i think he got tired of holding his smile :)

this is tory and myself being beyond excited for CONAN!!!!

this is the pizza that i made on tuesday night... tomato, green pepper, red pepper, onion, bacon, chicken... i think that's it! it was on a boboli crust!

wahoooooo

well, life is a going. i've been applying to places left and right and feel good about the future... so, i'm hoping that i'll have a new job by july or august. i guess we'll see what happens...

i'm leaving work early today because tory's friend, danielle, has a short film in the International Film Festival in San Francisco! so, we're going to go watch her film at 3:30pm and then from there we are going to head to San Jose to see CONAN O'BRIEN!!!!!!!!!!! i'm soooooooo excited!!!! beth and gary got us tickets and i am sooooo freaking excited!!!!! it'll be so awesome to see conan in person after watching him on tv for so long!!! i can't wait!!!!!

i'm going to start taking pictures of the dinners i make... my friend anna told me that it would be a good idea to put them on my blog and i think she is right! sunday i made pot roast w/mashed potatoes, broccoli, and a salad. monday i made chicken fajitas w/rice and black beans. last night i made pizza w/chicken, bacon, red peppers, green peppers, onions, and tomatoes! that was the only one i got a picture of... i forgot about the other days, but i'll start taking pics i promise!! :) i made derby pie on saturday.. it was really good. i made enough for two pies, so that was sort of a mistake.. hahaha :) too much pie... well, i guess there can never be "too much" pie.

friday is my birthday! i can't believe that it's already here. it's sort of bittersweet though b/c i'm not going to be spending it with any of the people that i've been celebrating it with for the past 22 years. it's sad that i can't go home and celebrate it with my family. it's something that i will have to get used to. but hopefully next year i will have a good job with tons of new friends at this time. i guess we'll see what happens! i think i'm going to buy myself a present... not that i haven't been buying myself presents already... coachella and wine tasting trip w/brittany and becca... hahaha. anywho, my car cd player hasn't been working right for the past 3 or 4 years and i think it's time to splurge and get it fixed for $100 or so.. everytime i put a cd in there it will just stop working, or it will work for a little bit and then clunk out. it's prob one of the most annoying things in the world. grrrrrr. i don't know, i'm thinking about it... but i might wait just a wee bit longer to do it. beth sent me an awesome herb growing kit.. it is AWESOME!!!!! i've already planted 5 different types of seeds and the thyme is already sprouting and i only started on saturday!!!! so, i'm going to have to go out and buy some pots and gardening gloves!! i'm so excited!! i need a fun hobby and i think gardening is a good one to have!! :)

well, i'll let you guys know how my birthday goes! i'll also be sure to start posting pics of the food i make!! hope you guys have a great day!!

happy mother's day to beth and aunt janice!!!! i hope it's an awesome one!!!

love and miss you all,
