Today was wonderful. Mostly. I woke up, walked the glorious seven blocks to the gym and did spinning. Being able to walk without limping makes me so happy and so does being able to walk to the gym! Although walking along wilshire is somewhat annoying with all the traffic lights, but not every gym walk can be as leisurely as Yonge Blvd! After the gym I went to meet Dave at his new apartment in Venice to measure it up and draft it out and figure out what furniture he can bring. I was shocked. Venice is actually nice! And not just nice, but the cutest quaintest thing ever! Well, obviously not all of it, but Dave's place is by a canal that you can boat in - Mom & Dad, wanna fedex me the kayak? It's so cottage-y and so cool and I really really really wanna move to the beach. In a year. Beverly Hills is perfect for now. Anyways, Dave's place is sweet. Although not as dreamy as Valley Oak, cause nothing can be as dreamy as a dream house, but it's still sweet. It's 3 storeys with a roof storey as well, with all these cool little cupboards that would be the best hideouts EVER if we were still kids. One is big enough for a bed and I totally think he should make it a "guest cupboard" (it's adjacent to the guest room, so it totally works).
We took measurements, then went back to Valley Oak cause Leigh had wanted me to run lines for an audition she was taping for Little Red Riding Hood starring our neighbour Amanda Seyfried! I worked on my autocad hwk while i waited for her to get home, and realized that I need to start remembering to bring my mouse because i'm painfully slow without it! Leigh came home, we got Birds for dinner, loaded my drafting table in my car (where it will probably stay for weeks since I can't lift it out by myself... hint hint, somebody, anybody)... and went to look at the Bush Cottage. It's ADORABLE! She moved in all the furniture and its really the coziest place ever! Although I do think she needs a navy blue wall or two!
Came home, watched DH, did my commercial design concepts homework, and started painting the poem Gone by Carl Sandburg on a 24"x48" canvas for my wall while listening to Pearl Jam. Painting is so much more enjoyable when you're listening to songs about the colour you're painting (black). Anywayssss... Next painting project: an 18" x whatever canvas to tape up against the side of my bathtub with lyrics from "Bathwater" by No Doubt. All the tile in my bathroom is black and white, with the exception of the side of the bathtub that's turquoise! WTF? It's an eyesore. It's gotta go. It's gotta be painted black.
Oh, and I also realized that my interest in both sugar and boys has diminished significantly. Won't go into boy details, but I ate celery and almonds while watching Desperate Housewives instead of my usual DH cupcake (and it's not like i don't have cupcakes, there's one in my freezer). It wasn't satisfying in the slightest, but I didn't care. There's more important things to care about... like Leigh. And like figuring out what pictures to put in my 8x10 frames...
Goodnight!
