“women who love women have more fun”

hehe. too funny.

anyways. hi everyone. i thought i’d start off this evening’s blog with a quote. speaking of funny things i have heard… my building manager just left… but she was talking about how she did the myers-brings test for her cats

*shakes head*

in case you haven’t noticed… my life is anything but boring. -P

and have i mentioned that i started taking kickboxing classes? yea. well.. i have. and they have been kicking my butt. i’m still sore from my class on monday.

i really don’t have much to say… so i’m gonna go work on a poster for our next metafour jazz gig. speaking of metafour.. i think i’m gonna redesign that website soon. i’m inspired now that i’ve got a new design up here on em.org. -) w00t.

chili, math and trees

December 19th, 2006

so it’s been a while since i’ve posted. i’m sorry about that. but not too sorry. i’ve got a couple minutes left of my lunch break, so i’m gonna see what i can blog about right now.

so i’ve been busy with work. it’s been super fun… since the holidays are approaching.. there’s all sorts of “fun” things going on here. last week we got a Christmas tree from another office (out of state)… and they treated us to pizza.. and we decorated the tree. today the whole office (which is basically like two different companies under one roof… just for simplicity’s sake) had a chili competition called the “Chili Bowl II.” i ate so much chili i think some sort of crazy chemical reaction is happening in my stomach as we speak i type.

*pauses to read her title of this entry.. for she forgot what she was going to say next*

hey all you math people out there…. well… anyone who has gone through simple elementary math at least. you will get a kick out of this: VerizonMath.com. there is a link on that page to “listen to the call“… it’s long.. but it’s hilarious. make sure you find some time to listen to this….. it’s simply amazing how some people just don’t “get it”…. and why exactly are schools budgets getting CUT?!?! this is a prime example of why we need to put MORE effort into our school systems in this country!

ok. enough of that rant.

and one more thing… go elf-a-size yourself -)

sad day on my face

November 17th, 2006

Current Mood: *brainfart*
Current Music: squarepusher

i said i’d blog tonight. but i’m not.

November 14th, 2006

so.. i was going to post an update on my life.. since so many fun/humourous/awesome things have happened lately… but i guess that will just have to wait.. since it’s late and i’m tired.

however.. i did finally start working on a layout for jazzhandsforjesus.com … it’s not done yet.. but you can see a preview with the little “coming soon” graphic. and in preparation for the grand launch of JHFJ… start taking pictures of yourself and/or others doing ‘jazz hands’… and send them over to me. -)

ok. that’s all. i’m going to bed now.

*jazz hands*

October 26th, 2006

Current Mood: still waking up.
Current Music: wham!

open mic nights…

October 10th, 2006

have you ever been to an open mic / spoken word night?

well.. i have. i am at one now actually. in oshkosh.

i’ve been to spoken word nights in milwaukee / bay view.. but this one is different.

i feel really captivated with the audience that is here… where do i start? ok. so you know the really nerdy artsy types? usually creative writing majors or music majors? the types of people who wear a santa hat all fall/winter .. and have for the last 10 years of their lives? the people with a button up shirt underneath a ‘clever’ tshirt, (both shirts the same color, mind you) color sticking out over the top… who cross their legs, with a spiral notebook on their lap.. pen in hand.. looking intellectually at the pen… like as if they are trying to listen to what the ink inside the pen wants to do today? the people who must still tease their hair (hey.. remember that?) to look somewhat like einstein? or how ’bout the super “emo” people with their black hair covering one eye.. because life is “just THAT unbearable to face.”… yea. and then there’s me and michele… one half of a jazz quartet.

don’t get me wrong. this is fun. i’m just distracted with my people watching in these types of environments.

this is better than tv.

(ok. dude with the santa hat just played an improv song and announced afterwards that he went through 7 different key changes in that song. gosh i love life)

does this make me ‘un-american’?

October 9th, 2006

i totally didn’t know today was a holiday.

when i checked for my mail and it hadn’t come even at 3:30-4pm, i google searched, and discovered that today is columbus day.

i must live in a bubble.

oh. and i made something last night/today.. that i’m pretty happy with. i’ll be working on getting it online to share with you all soon… don’t you worry -)

new clothes and jazz hands.

October 3rd, 2006

soooooo… i had an interview today…

and that caused me to participate in a celebratory shopping trip for new work clothes.

which in turn caused me to put on these new clothes and take pictures of myself pretending to be a model.

that of which i will now post for your enjoyment…. (note.. as the self-portrait picture taking went on.. i got punchier and punchier… and as a result… the pictures became more and more ridiculous. don’t say i didn’t warn you.)

new work clothes, outfit #1
(outfit #1: brown shirt and jeans, from j.crew)
