BUT I found a salon 5 minutes away that specializes in cutting curly hair. Even if it’s gray, at least I won’t have anymore bad haircuts.

I wound up making my last entry private as I wouldn’t want anyone I work with to read it if they found my blog. Better safe than sorry and all that. If I blog about work or anything else that I don’t want random people on the internet to read, it will probably be private as well. The good thing is that all you have to do to read it is register for my blog. If you’re logged in you’ll be able to see it. There’s a private feed as well, but I’m still trying to figure that out. If you’re interested leave a comment or contact me and I’ll be sure to email you the feed URL when I figure it out.
Also, I found a plugin the remove my twitter updates from the feed for this site (I hope, haven’t tested it yet). My tweets are still displayed here, but if you’re already following me on Twitter, then you don’t really need them showing up in my feed as well, it’s redundant (and if you aren’t following me on Twitter my tweets aren’t really important enough to show up in the feed anyway).
And sorry to repost this, but since I made the last entry private, I wanted this to be seen. I’ve started that food blog I mentioned awhile back. I’ve been doing REALLY well with cooking lately. We hardly eat out anymore, because I’m actually excited about cooking dinner. It’s kind of awesome. I plan to document that and post lots of recipes since I’m making new things every day. My friend Mary is going to be a contributor as well. I’d love to have other authors if anyone is interested in sharing recipes and other food related things. Anyway, it’s called Back to the Cutting Board. Come and visit me over there! Honestly, I’ll probably be posting there a lot more than here. I’m not giving up on this blog, but I just don’t have much to write here lately. I’ll still post if something interesting happens or if I have news, but I’ll be posting a lot more regularly on the new blog.

Well, that was easy. I submitted my resume at Brandon’s company and they hired me pretty much immediately. I’ll be working Monday/Wednesday/Friday starting next week. This works out really well as there will be no “who gets the car” issues, I’ll just be working the same hours as him on those days.
I’ll be on the internet all day, so I’ll still be able to answer my email and help clients, but I’ll probably stick to doing actual design work at home on Tuesday, Thursday and the weekend. Since I’m taking a break from new projects this summer, this won’t be an issue, but I’ll have to see how things go in the fall. I may need to cut down to two days a week if I start getting busy with projects again. Or I may just limit how many projects I do a month, so that I can do both without getting overwhelmed.
But basically my “job” will be to play a game all day. !!! Can’t beat that with a stick. It’s one of those new social network-y sites, but it’s aimed for kids and there are tons of games and a whole universe to play around in. They have their own avatars and houses and they get money from the games to buy furniture and stuff like that. But they can also chat with friends and live in the same “neighborhood” and play games together. My job is “lifeguard”. I think I just monitor all the chats and games and make sure there aren’t kids who are doing/saying inappropriate things and I get to kick them out if they are. Fear me, kids. I have all the power!
