well, they finally drove Dead Guy's truck away yesterday, and that's.. a good thing.

i got paid for my first two weeks at michael's and i'm making more than i thought i would. it's very possible i may be okay with just this job for the summer, especially since my hours had been squirrley and will increase in the coming weeks. i've already put calls in up north to beloit to work with the new court theater, but i may not be as desperate for money, so i may be able to just design for them. i may also be able to work for the mendelssohn club, in a small capacity, on their production of quilters.

tomorrow night i go into chicago to meet up with friends. christa finally moved to chi-town, after years of threatening ;). allison is coming into town on work from philadelphia and all us isu kids are getting together for drinks. i have tomorrow off and i don't work until 2 on tuesday, so i can get all woot woot.

i met my new landlords last night, and they tell me they're dedicated to turning this building around, and getting rid of all the trashy tenants - including my ghetto neighbors. they want to replace all the hallway carpet and all the windows in the building. this will be cause for great rejoicing, as my windows now really suck.

i haven't gone to horses in a little bit now, i'm trying to give my ass bones a little break. i've also been busy and tired but i expect now that my schedule is settling down a bit, i will be back in the newer, more comfortable saddle again. betsy thinks that jessie and i may be able to do drill team in the fall if we keep up with our "studies". woot!

i think now i will brunch.
