update

this is my life...the past few weeks:

-habitat is going well, lots of university stuff going on, just trying to stay on top of everything without someone getting mad.
-country club waitressing is almost done. i really like it there and the work schedule is awesome, they totally cater to my needs. plus, tips are awesome!
-online services is something else...i'm currently looking for a new job. maybe records office? we'll see.
-homework is tolerable. i have a huge assignment due next week though and i'm no where near being done. i'm currently seeking a tutor to help me some more with form-z, just not comfortable with it.
-cities with the design guild for company tours : oct. 13-14
-homecoming this weekend! johnny holmes dance, carnival, football, hockey game, coronation on wednesday....it will all be fun!
-gilmore girls tonight!
-4-6: katrina relief benefit. habitat is serving up pickles.
-oct. 5: habitat highway clean-up
-oct. 8: habitat team building day

i think that's all...o yeah, and birthdays? tessa's drunkenfest of her 22nd was this last weekend, steph's 21st is tomorrow (brigid's and open mike night?), and ann's is on friday...happy birthday to all!!!

over and out...and back to my horrible job....

augh!

she just checked up on me.

"whatcha workin on?"

like she doesn't trust me.

"i'm about to leave...just cleaning up the computer."

yeah...cleaning my stuff off the computer. so i won't have to stick around and do it when i get a new job and leave.

i hate this. walking on eggshells sucks.

i need help

if you know of a place on campus that is looking for a student worker, let me know. if you want details on why, go ahead and ask. but if you hear of a job, that would be wonderful! thanks much...

Dear Friend:

In the wake of the destruction brought on by Hurricane Katrina, hundreds of thousands of Americans are facing an uncertain and challenging future.

We've all watched together as increasingly dire reports have come out of the hardest hit areas of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, and right now our nation is trying to find its footing as it responds to one of the worst disasters that we've ever faced.

We all see the pictures on TV. Right now, they need water, food, clothing, shelter and medical attention, and soon they'll begin the long process of putting their lives back together... hospitals, sewers, schools...all the things that we take for granted every day.

As members of ONE, we must believe that Americans can't help people around the world unless we also take care of urgent needs at home.

You can visit the═
ONE.ORG blog to find a list of ONE partners and other groups working right now to help those in most need.

In the same way that our fight against poverty is both urgent and diligent, we now have a new challenge with the same rules, to help stop people from dying today and help rebuild their infrastructure for tomorrow.

In July, you answered the call of the poorest countries in the world, and now perhaps we can help you find a way to participate at this important time. Please visit the═
ONE.ORG blog and take action today.

Thank you,
George Clooney

P.S. You can also help by taking part in the "ReAct Now: Music & Relief" benefit concert that will air on MTV, VH1 and CMT, planned for Sept. 10th at 8pm ET/7pm CT. Please visit
www.think.mtv.com═for up to date information.

Ok, ok...I know it's nothing special, but I thought it was kind of fun to see an email in my inbox that said the sender was George Clooney...who else wouldn't think it was cool?

finally...

the first wave of procrastination. i was waiting for it to set in. i have 5 orthographic scetches complete with measurements due on friday and i won't have time to complete them really tomorrow, so i have to do them today. like now. but i'm blogging...and eating vanilla ice cream with strawberry jam. i love ice cream and strawberries.

o, and i went to the weirdest party earlier. it was a sex toys party. i think kt and i are now scarred for life. but we had good fun while getting scarred! haha...

hope you had a wonderful hump day! ok...i'll stop with the jokes...

quizno's

kt and i are going to quizno's so i can stock up on honey mustard. i have no homework due tomorrow and nothing scheduled for the night so i am making the best of it.

bring on the honeymustard!!!

woot woot! hahaa...
highlight of my day

i ordered 720 necklaces of mardi gras beads. all for a grand total of $28! yes, i rule.

we'll be selling them at the union for (as of right now) $2. all proceeds going towards demolished habitat homes and the red cross/salvation army katrina hurricane relief.

it's weird how some brightly colored beads can bring warm fuzzies to your stomach.

i can't wait for them to arrive.

renaissance and mn state fair.

i love minnesota. here's what i experienced this past weekend.

1. 2 people wearing colored socks with their sandals.
2. 493 fanny packs. and my mom wanted to wear one. nothing against that of course.
3. women who do not wear enough clothing and feel like they need to show off what they have...please ladies. i don't want to see your rolls. put a shirt on!
4. while in the bathroom, " fries make me so gasy..." HELP!
5. people who do not work at the renaissance fair dressed as fairies and pirates. i thought it was just renaissance? so confused.
6. my mom and i reckon that some of the girls who go to the renaissance fair do it just to have an excuse to dress slutty.
7. the best ever chocolate chip cookies. and all you can drink milk for $1.
8. DJ SNUFFLES!!
9. the smartest looking 10 year old boys who can play the piano. and tails on a tux rule.
10. everything on a stick. including fine art on a stick.
11. 1040 lbs. pig.

i had to add the pig on there. i was going to stop at 10. i wish i had pictures, but i didn't bring a camera. o well.

that was my weekend, in a nutshell. hope you all had a fantastic labor day weekend! back to the work week...
