Hired!

I'm feeling much better. Thanks for all of your kind comments and advice. More good news! I went on a second interview this past Thursday and got the job. I start tomorrow and I really think I'll enjoy working in the environment. It's for a start up camera gear rental company and to top it off, I'll be working with my friend Lisa. Yay! I'm starting out part time and will get more hours as summer picks up more business.

Another cool thing in the works, is two great chances to win My Minds Eye prizes. Everything Scrapp'n will be holding a contest on their blog and I get to have a giveaway/contest right here as well. So be sure to check back during the month of April. You'll need some of the new products from MME for the contest over at the Everything Scrappn blog, so check out the 15% discount (ends March 31st).

Logan's adorable sister CJ is visiting from Iowa on her Spring Break. Jenna & I took her to China town and North Beach on Friday. We had some very filling steamed pork buns and gelato through out the day. The weather has been very sunny and relatively hot too. As we were walking back towards Market Street we saw some purple glass in the ground. I had to take a photo.
We also stopped in the ultra cool book store City Lights (on Columbus Ave.) and I snapped a photo of the stairwell area. The store has such personality, I love it there. Saturday we met Kevin & Courtenay for dinner at Amici's in San Jose before heading to an incredible Sharks game (NHL). We had an amazing time and they won. Courtenay & I talked through most of it but we still stood up and screamed when they scored. I especially liked doing the jaws motion when they played the music. Fun times.

Movies, Interviews, and Goodies!

The holiday season is one of the most favorite times of the year. I love watching all of the movies to get into the spirit. These past two weeks I have watched the Holiday, Love Actually, While You Were Sleeping, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Home Alone 2, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and my most favorite, White Christmas, I have to watch White Christmas because of the incredible talent and art direction in the movie. I still have to watch It's A Wonderful life.

Since I'm on the subject of movies, I thought I'd mention that I just saw Blades of Glory the other night and laughed so hard. When I was younger I wanted to be a amateur ice skater at the Olympics. I really enjoyed all of the cameos and the outfits. I love John Heder too! I recently became a fan of the Die Hard series. We rented Live Free or Die Hard and I think Justin Long was so adorable in it. Ever since he's been the Mac in the Apple commercials I've grown to love his humor.

Monday was a yummy mail day. I got a wonderful box of goodies from Jess. I had so much fun digging through it. Thanks for the wonderful German chocolate and candy! We already went through the bag of Haribo Gummy Colas.

I got to see Elizabeth, Josiah, and Eva on Monday afternoon. We met at the Chit Chat Cafe on the Pacifica Pier. The waves were so big they were splashing over the sea wall! They've been so high that Pacifica was on the news this morning. I gave Elizabeth her Christmas present early so she could enjoy her My Little Pony ornament this season.

Monday night Dan and I went to Park Chow for dinner. I needed to be distracted from getting butterflies. I ordered a medium cobb salad (love bacon) so I could have my own slice of apple pie. Let me just say that their pie is so great that the first time I tried it was that scene from When Harry Met Sally revisited. ;)


Tuesday morning I had an interview with a fun and creative production company in San Francisco. I was really impressed with the company and I would love to work with them. I have been asked to go in for a second interview on Thursday. Thanks for all of your positive thoughts, they've been working!

I swung by My Daugther's Wish on my way home from visiting my grandma on Tuesday. I have been drooling over the Noel Elsie line but wasn't in the mood to buy it until yesterday. Yum!


I'm off to Jury duty. I need to finish up my Red Velvet Art ornaments and get them mailed out asap. I bought some little goodies to throw in the envelope since its getting out to them late.
