Wednesday night, a few things......


I know she can look a bit scary, and I can't really say I'm an admirer of her clothes, but I really like the American Express commercial with Diane von Furstenberg. I love the music. I love how she takes pictures of the trees. I even love the sound of her warbling accent. It gets to me when she says, "I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I knew the woman I wanted to become." Maybe it's because of where I'm at right now in my life. I know who I am and what I love to do, but not quite how to put that into something tangible like a job, or a career. It's scary because I'm thinking about jumping into something new, and putting something I have devoted so much of my energy into aside for awhile. Soul searching is a term I abhor but I am searching in a way. I'm looking all around for something and trying to keep my eyes open all the time for whatever it may be. I'm hungry for inspiration, advice, conversations, and insights from poets, writers, models, babies, nature, just about anyone or anything that I feel speaks to me. Because I'm ready for___________ and these days it seems even commercials are speaking to me.

Gwennie and Batali

I want to watch this show! It airs here Sunday night. I think I will enjoy it with some wine and cheese.

Sunday morning



I woke up this morning and to my surprise...it's COLD!!!! (and cloudy)
Could this be fall coming at last? The end of the hot, dry, slow summer? I hope so. I have a big cup of coffee and I'm listening to portishead to help things along.


On Friday Patrick and I went to our favorite place within walking distance, the Silver Lake cheese store. Sometimes I just go in there and walk around while breathing deeply. All of the cheese and wine and olive oil everywhere has a calming effect on me. Some people do yoga. I like cheese.

9 to 5


Still job hunting.  I've sent out so many resumes that when I would see mail in my inbox, I'd get that little twinge of excitement....who wants to hire me now?  
Now I know it's probably just another email from moveon.org., the third or fourth that day.  
Back to craigslist!
Have a good weekend!

Fun Problems


I'm watching this movie right now!!!!!
I, like Lelaina Pierce am knee deep in job hunting. Except while she traipses around in great thrown together vintage finds, I wear the same three things in heavy rotation.
By the way,  here is something that needs to be said, Ethan Hawke's hair is enviable. It should be celebrated.  ALSO That look he gives Lelaina and the bumbler (Ben Stiller)  as he passes them by in the parked car mid make- out,  should be on an AFI "look" list.
