Been a while

This weekend we went to a craft show in Seattle called Urban Uprising.  Most of the people selling had etsy stores, and seeing all the cool stuff was very inspiring.  It definitely made me want to explore my creative side-which I really haven't felt like doing lately.  I got a really cute head band and two necklaces.  One necklace had a really cool tree charm, and the other had a cute cavalier charm.  Steve got a print of a fox painting. 
It has been really warm here lately.  Everyone is saying how this is the hottest summer that they have had up here in a long time.  How is it that when we move here they have the most extreme winter and summer?  Come on now.  This is just crazy lame.  Anyway, this weekend was pretty flippin warm.  Sunday I really felt like doing nothing at all.  I totally vegged and then Steve and I decided to go see the movie The Hangover.  It was really funny.  A completely raunchy film, but I was laughing pretty much the whole time.  Zach Galifinakas has been on my radar lately though, and I think he is really funny-so that might have had something to do with it.
My job is still up in the air.  We had a meeting today, and they told me that they are attempting to extend me through October because my job is technically being billed to another team.  It is pretty much a waiting game right now. 
You know,  every job environment has drama and this one is no different.  Today I had a chat with my partner in crime at work, and I was getting in on all the dirt.  It is hard when people have those types of conversations with you, because for me, I really don't want to talk shit about people.  I mean I have my observations, but I try to stay neutral.  Anyway, I learned that my counterpart at work is going to apply for another job on another team.  It doesn't mean she is going to take the job and it doesn't mean that I am going to get her job is she leaves.  I just have to wait and see how things unfold. 
I am happy that I finally talked to Erika today.  I haven't really been good about contacting anyone lately.  I am really becoming quite the hermit.  I don't know what is wrong with me.  I sort of get this way a lot it seems.  I go through big spurts where I just want to be alone, and then I feel like being social again for a short time.  However, I need to make sure I at least attempt to keep relationships going while I am being hermit-like.  I am lucky to have a friend like Erika though, where I can pretty much pick up where I left off and not have any weirdness when there is a lapse in conversation.  There are a lot of people I miss, and I just really need to make that contact again.
