*so sparkly!*
One of the things I've enjoyed about being a bookkeeper for a catering company is that it's so very not corporate for an office job (the dress code is lax, i wander off for coffee whenever i like, and i'm almost completely self-managed which is an AWSOME freedom). Clerical work is something I can do and make a good paycheck, but it does NOT feed my artistic soul and doesn't do much for my inner Jedi either. I have learned that I can go just about anywhere in the country and get an office job that is easy and pays well: I have an established fall back.
Now I think its time for something completely different. Some damn fine opportunities are unfolding and I think I'll be heading a new route (finally! Carl was right about how wretched office work can be, he even used to value my sacrifice so we could afford our life and I do expect him to remember that again someday.) I wish not to speak too much of my designs...like the dust of butterflies and moths, intentions and plans can be shifted by whispers, but I really feel that I've started to find more of "my calling" as it contributes to being a bad-ass artist and to communion with the Force. ;-)
My fiancé from 7 years ago gave me back my engagement ring.
Not as an "engagement," just for me to have. Having such a pretty token without strings, labels or statements is satin. I've been a bit awkward about such things since another very silly (albeit sweet) boy tried to force me into selecting a ring design.
I intend to have the diamond re-set as the current setting is sharp and scraped my finger when I wore it before, plus I want to set it in a design that speaks more of our friendship then of our former association. (Any recommendations of nifty jewelers??)
