oh, hey! how’s it going? wow, time surely flies, don’t it? can you believe march is almost over? seriously, easter is this weekend and spring is mere hours from being sprung (according to the equinox, that is).
\nso, yeah. stuff.
\nlet’s see… catching up.
\ni had an odd, yet very pleasant, interaction at a birthday party with a long-time reader of this very website. i knew of him, through comments and our mutual friend, but we’d not once met in person. it was an interesting flash of insight as to how it must feel to be a celebrity. not that i’m a celebrity, by any means, just that when you first meet someone they already know all this stuff about you. in conversation, you mention “this guy so-and-so” and they reply with “oh, yeah! he’s a central storyline!”… it’s a little weird. that being said, i’m glad to have finally met him. hi, dave<\/a>! ;)
\nwhat else? um…
\ni’ve been going to the physiotherapist for the last couple of weeks to rehabilitate my injured knee. that’s been fun. no, really! i’m almost inspired to start a new blog entitled “Tales from the Physiotherapist” because every time i go, there seems to be one stand out comment or situation which practically begs to be blogged. like monday, when he came at me with a bottle of gel, a plunger and told me not to be nervous. i couldn’t make this shit up if i wanted to!
\nknitting has slowed down considerably, but i’m still obsessed with wrist warmers. now that i’ve learned a couple new tricks and found some ridiculously yummy wool (so cheap! at wal-mart!), i’m trying to knit unblemished pairs now. there’s just something awesome about using five double-pointed needle at the same time. to quote the lovely mindy: it’s danger craft!
\ni got the chance to borrow a co-worker’s SB-600 speedlight flash<\/a> for a weekend. while i still want one, the time with it mostly served to remind me that it’s not just fancy gear which makes for awesome photos. *sigh* i’m not so much with the awesome photo-making these days. i’m blaming the winter. soon, there will be more outside time. especially once my knee, other knee and feet are feeling better.
\nfiled my taxes, got my return, spent the money.
\nliselotte has been acting weird and making scary noises. she goes in for a fuel filter replacement tomorrow. i hope it’s a cheap and easy solution to a troubling problem. cross your fingers for me!
\nmy photo<\/a> didn’t sell, but my boyfriend’s<\/a> did! the whole exhibition experience was nerve-wracking and weird. i’ll probably sumbit again, but just not go to the opening night schmooze fest. that was exhausting. hated it.
\ni guess that’s it.
\noh, my boss quit. friday was his last day. i was so distraught by the end of the day that when he came into my office to finally say goodbye, i couldn’t say a word. i just barely managed to hug him while trying not to sob hysterically. he… yeah. he was a great boss and a great guy and i’m not the only person who will miss him immensely both now and far into the future. it sucked. a lot.
\ntomorrow’s a half-day, then i’m hopping on the ferry to go spend easter weekend with the maternal unit (hi mom!) and our adopted family member, karen. i forsee: shopping, eating, tv, laughter, sarcasm and hugs. it’ll be just what the doctor ordered.
\nso, yeah. you’re fully updated on the rich and full life of me. are you sated? i’m feeling a little spent, myself. that was a lot of words for someone who doesn’t type much anymore. go chomp the ears off some chocolate bunnies for me and i’ll try to put more characters on your screen a little more often. ‘kay?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
