So, I’m still consulting, happily for another marketing company. Getting close to 10 hours for today. Brain is a bit hurty I’ve been bending CSS and WordPress to my will, but can’t get my actionscript to behave. At least I’ve had lovely Dr. Who audiodrama to keep me company.

Overall, I find I’m happiest when I have web work to do, and it is nice to have some pressing deadlines. Husband is depressed I don’t have a full time jobby job. I don’t mind contract work as long as it is steady, but the buyout restrictions seem to have already cost me a potential position. Best I can hope is that someone will be happy enough with my quick and quality work and hire me on full time, no matter the restrictions.

Even though it’s not quite classified as desperate times…

We’re moving in with my father-in-law. Partly due to my on and off work schedule, but mainly due to our desire to own a house this year at some point. So… we’ll throw most of our secondhand couches and furniture and pack up everything but my art desk, and our work clothes. Carlo has already purchased some storage that basically everything else will go into. I can’t really say much about the decision, it’s my fault we’re making this choice, so I really can’t put up much resistance. It is, however, the best way to save money for a downpayment for a home of some sort.

This kind of change is hard to take though.

having a nice weekend. Headed over to Cuppa Jo’s to check out Maciek’s photoshow, and then out to Edo for Jane’s bday (HAPPY BDAY!)

and now, over at Ray’s, it’s intermission in our Heroes marathon! I luve this show, and watching the episodes again allow me to catch all sorts of things I missed the first time.

Feeling insular today, happily no longer in the dark cloud funk i was in this morning, but still wanting to hibernate, and read. however, i am out of library books and need to return them before i can get a new bunch… which means i'll have to get up and out of my nice warm nest of blankets, and see if i need to pay any fines today.

Last weekend I got to got to Wicked! In Chicago! The trip was a Christmas gift from my awesome sister-in-law. We had a fantastic time. It was really great to see what happens between and during the music I’ve been listening to for months! It’s totally worth it to go! I took pictures of our trip. You can see them in a photoset: here

It was so nice to get to downtown Chicago. We passed the Millennium Park, and circled our hotel about 3 times (would you believe it was only a door! with a short awning? and I was the only one who saw it when we passed by the first time! ) We went to Macy’s, drank Starbucks, did some light shopping on Saturday and Sunday. I picked up a couple tee’s and an awesome jean jacket for half off at Torrid. Of course, it’s far too cold to wear it now, but hopefully in a few weeks! Anyway. I had a great time, and wanted to make note of it. Another post is coming talking about general things.

Go see Wicked!
