in which making a fool of myself is a good thing.
No, seriously. I love how pitiful I sounded in my last blog considering that a week later, I interviewed for a part-time job at the Picture People and eventually snagged a position! Yeah yeah, I've heard the company is crap, but the one at Stratford Square needed extra photographers for Easter, so at least I have something temporarily. Although not exactly what I'd like, I'm thankful for any photo work at all.
I had a quiet "3-17" this year with just my parents. My sister didn't even want to spend time with me; she was only going to celebrate if we ate at Potbelly's (honestly, wtf? we can go there anytime!). Instead, I picked out our local Red Robin as I've never been there before, and I received a free meal and dessert for my birthday there too. As a gift from the folks, I picked up my ticket in the mail to see Franz Ferdinand next month. :)
From Joseph, a handwritten letter arrived exactly on my birthday. I was a puddly, romantic mess after reading it; geez, even his handwriting is adorable and cute and just about a million times more readable than mine! Also, since he can't afford a phone plan for his cell right now, the fact that my aunt sent me a 900 minute phone card was -for once- a wonderful thing! She's been giving them as presents every year (and partially used lots of times. yeah, my family is strange), but never before have I had such a need for one.
Before my parents and I came home last night, we went to a pub and had a drink. We were lucky to find a corner booth open in such a close-knit place, but I suppose lucky is what I'm to be on a day like yesterday, right? ;) So I had a beer and knocked out appropriately at the end of my 24th St. Patrick's Day.
