You'll Know Why

So, it's been a while--I know. I feel the need to justify why I haven't been posting as voraciously, a feeling which I resent since I answer to no one on this blog. Except myself. So I resent the fact that I feel the need to justify my absence to myself....Wow, did you already stop reading? Because I did, and that's kind of impossible because I'm writing this and so in order to read it I have to continue to write it....

....strike two, Small Hands, strike two.

Okay so what's been going on:

1. I may have OD-ed on blog posting while I was in Yosemite

2. I'm having issues uploading photos from my iPhone to da compy, and I'm sick of uploading straight from the iPhone since it makes it so that I have less control over the formatting

3. Family, man

4. I AM MOVING SOON and I am scared and excited and scared of being excited and excited about being scared because it builds character? So yes, I am planning my next big adventure, being a move to San Francisco, which is a city, which is scary, and exciting. My plan is to ultimately gain employment at an art organization in either a communications, education and/or outreach position. (Can you tell I've written this a million times?)

From what I've gathered from several informational interviews, the only way to get into the art world is to be an unpaid intern. And the only way to live and be an intern is to also get a job. So my plan is to get a job, and intern at an art organization as well, in hopes that a position will magically open up and POOF I will be there, waiting to be wrapped up in their delicious artsy arms. What?

 The only case I would not poof-be-wrapped-up is if the job I get in the meantime ends up being AWESOME, like the one I applied to yesterday. Its a copywriter position at www.sneakpeeq.com; check it out, its an awesome online retail store that gives awesome deals on quirky and unique items.

5. I rediscovered popcorn. I used to love popcorn. In fact, I always listed it as my "comfort food" in questionnaires at school. How could I forget my comfort food?! Probably because I replaced that title with lame adult foods like kale and lentils and ground turkey (coincidentally, exactly what I ate tonight).

Anyway, I'm back and I'm going to mediate this conflict between my iPhone and Picasa. I mean really, they gotta work this out. Then I will begin to post sentimental I'm-Leaving-Santa-Cruz-So-Here-Are-All-The-Landmarks-I-Love. If there are watermarks on the pictures, you'll know why.
