I just got back today after almost an entire week in Utah.  It was, actually, pretty great.  My dad and I went on a date for sushi (since nobody else likes it...fools!), I helped make Thanksgiving dinner, I received a plethora of homemade, holiday-themed pot holders, I was gifted with an egg McMuffin maker, I befriended a cat / dog, I picked ( Read more... )

Ha.  At work today, my coworker mentioned how he went to the Beauty Bar this weekend and thought it was the weirdest experience of his life.  I responded with a surprised "really?", to which he replied "I think maybe you're a hipster, Jessica."  Haha...I am not totally sure how I feel about that.  I actually have never even been to the Beauty Bar ( Read more... )

The butterflies that have taken up residence in my stomach over the past few months are all aflutter this week.  This very important, life changing week.  Shall we list the events?  We shall:

• I am moving tomorrow
• Jillian has left for D.C. as of yesterday
• I took the first steps towards quitting Kreiss, and have started a new, rewarding (?) job at a ( Read more... )

I just send an e-mail meant for Jillian to the editor of the magazine I am interning for.  In said e-mail, I reference said editor and how he no longer edits down my articles.  I also may have said something about him succumbing to my written word.  Oh god.  I am totally never getting hired there now ( Read more... )

I love my co-workers sometimes.  Everyday our warehouse guy gives me some sort of an advisory gem.  Take, for example, the above title of this post.  He told me this after I explained how I ate too much for dinner the other day.  Indeed, sir, it is good to have fun.

I was lucky enough to have another unexpected bout of fun this morning.  The good ( Read more... )

I don' t think I am, but I can't deny that there is sick feeling in my stomach right now.  There has been one, off and on, for the past few weeks.  I am pretty positive we have reached the end of our line, but what if I am wrong?  I think about where our relationship was heading, it least in my opinion, and it was pretty much to Nowheresville.  I ( Read more... )

I actually said that this morning!  Outloud!  Without even thinking!  haha Anyhow, the above statement was said in response to my getting a call from one of the Johns at bizSanDiego, letting me know that I got the internship I interviewed for last week.  I totally did not expect to get it after I didn't hear back from them by the time they said I ( Read more... )

Ringing in 24 was chockablock full of interesting experiences.  I don't want to wait too long before I post about it, but I know it would take me too long to write everything in detail.  So instead of a potential multi-part or extremely long post, I am just going to list some highlights.  Sound good?  Here we go...

• Home:  The first day I got there, ( Read more... )

I am feeling a bit sentimental today.  This week.  Always.  I feel like I am in some sort of holding pattern.  And while I am in actuality on the brink of several potential life changes, I feel...stuck.  In a moment.  And I can't get out of it.  (You see what I did there?).  But its true, despite the cliche lyricism of it all.  I need to do some ( Read more... )

I had my first internship interview today.  bizSanDiego called me while I was in Ventura this past week, asking if they could set up a time for me to come in and interview.  So today at 2:00 I took a late lunch, hopped on the 805, merged to the 163, and headed for downtown.  Its a weird feeling leaving work on one's lunch break with the purpose of ( Read more... )
