76 and sunny, i can't move to SoCal...

hey everyone!

today it is about 76 degrees and sunny as all get out in San Francisco. it is making it quite difficult to work, that's for sure! i have decided that there is no way in hell that i could move to southern california because it would be impossible to get and keep a job. i would probably try to be unemployed because it is so freaking gorgeous outside all of the time. bahhhhh.. life is so hard out here in california!

work is going great! i'm getting to go on that shoot that i wasn't sure if i was going to be able to go on the last time i wrote. so, that is happening next week! i'm beyond pumped. i'll be helping out one of my coworkers, Fera, just helping her with the testimonials and all that jazz. i can't freaking wait! it's so nice to be able to go on a shoot. i'm so happy about it. i've also been helping Fera out here and there with whatever needs to get done, so it's nice having more work. i made some of my first phone calls yesterday and again today and i think they went pretty good, so that was exciting. i didn't know if i was going to be good at it because i have to ask them questions and transcribe at the same time, but i think i made it work! so i'll be on that shoot next week on wednesday and thursday. we have a dinner with all of the testimonials on tuesday night. there will be 7 of them. i'm really excited to meet everyone! i hope everything goes smoothly! :)

our friends, scott and erin are out visiting this week from colorado. it's nice to see them! scott came out to visit last summer, but erin couldn't make it, so it's nice for her to be able to come out this time! we've had a lot of fun. we went and watched the UNC vs UK game at the UK bar last weekend, since we all went to UK. it was fun, until the end... oh well, i'm fine w/UNC losing (but, not really) as long as it's to UK! hahaha. it was fun though. i'm looking forward to the game this weekend. i'm guessing we'll probably go to the UK bar again. it gets pretty packed and most of the people are from kentucky which is fun! it's like walking into kentucky for a couple hours! scott and erin are in town for a convention that's going on in sacramento today, so they will be there until saturday, then drive back to berkeley. then leave on sunday. merrr i hate it when people leave!

i'm ready for the weekend. this weather is killing meeeee! i want to go outside, NOW! :) it'll be hard to make it to 5:30pm today, hahaa.

our friend steve is having a cook out for opening day (baseball) tonight! i'm pumped! i haven't grilled out in way too long! should be a great time!

i can't believe that tomorrow is April!?!?! that is INSANE to me!!!! i can't believe it! it's only like 15 days until Coachella, which i am sooooooo freaking excited about. i can't freaking waittttttttttt. we just found out that more of our friends are coming, so it'll be, tory, steve, austin, myself in a car, and then our friends that help us out on shoots, hart and devon, along with our friends that we met last year, stu and sarah, so we're gonna have a huge group! i can't wait!!!!!! it'll be so much fun!!!!

well, i better get back to work! thanks for reading! love and miss you allll!!!!

love always,

bahhh i'm getting bad at this!

hey everybody!

sorry that it seems that i'm getting worse and worse at this! life is carrazzaayyy! well, not really, but working in the city takes up a lot of my time just going to/from work! at least daylight savings time has hit now so when i get home it's not completely dark outside. it makes me happy when i leave work and it's still sunny outside. yea buddy.

work is going fine.. same ol, same ol. i might get to go on a shoot in a couple of weeks, so hopefully that will happen! but other than that.. nothing too big to report on that front.

this past week our friends sam and ashleigh have been in town. they are looking to move out here as well. i really hope that they do, because we had so much fun with them this past week and i'm sure they had a blast as well! we celebrated st. patrick's day twice! it was so much fun! we celebrated the saturday before st. patrick's day b/c it was the SF st. patrick's day parade. that was a lot of fun, although we didn't really watch much of the parade... haha. a bunch of friends ended up coming out! steve, phil, and joel joined tory, sam, ashleigh and myself. it was nice for there to be a good sized group of all of us! we ended up going to this parking lot party because all of the other beer gardens were just too jammed packed with people! the parking lot party was a very random mix of people. it was about 3 or 4 blocks off from the actual parade, so it was nice to have a little bit of elbow room to move around! we had a grand ol time and took the bart home later, so that was nice. we also got jack in the box later, so that was extra yummy. the 2nd st. patty's day was on st. patrick's day itself. we ended up going to the north beach area of the city, the italian part, but there were still irish bars. steve, phil, geraldine, joel, and later our friend sarah from coachella and her younger sister lane showed up to join tory, sam, ashleigh and myself. we had a huge amount of fun! we stayed out way later than any of us thought that we would be able to! but we just had so much fun and it was great to see our friend sarah, who steve, tory and myself met last year at coachella. her and her friends had the parking spot next to us, so we became fast friends. hopefully we will park next to them this year too!

tory hasn't been feeling so hot the last couple of days, so hopefully he will start feeling better again soon. we have more friends coming in thursday, scott and erin. scott came to visit last summer, so it will be nice to have both him and erin here this year! they also come on a good day, it's 80s dance party night on saturday night! wahoooo! it'll be nice to have more friends come in town. :)

well, i guess that's about it. i made homemade whole wheat bread last night, i think it turned out pretty good! march madness is getting pretty crazy! UNC and UK have played pretty good so far, hopefully they can keep it up! as long as dooke doesn't win again, i'll be happy! :) hahaha, i hope you guys are doing great!

love and miss you all,
