Title of the Piece: Photographer

Painted at 1:16 p.m. on 2009-07-22

The Boyfriend is officially happily unemployed.He gave his 2 weeks on the 1st and today marks one week of being a freelance photographer. It's scary, but great. I can tell he's happier, which, in turn, makes me happier. So yes, things are good. (if um anyone knows of anyone in need of a food photographer...send them my way, I have juuuuust the right person for them)

That I guess is the biggest news lately. Things are good on the home-front. The cats are keeping each other busy. Oh actually, I just found out yesterday that my little DeJour is down to 6lbs b/c she has a hyper-active thyroid (she was 8.4lbs in Feb). Thankfully it's treatable and thankfully she hasn't given too much resistance to her drugs. It has only been 1 day of drugs though.

I'm turning 30 in less than 2 weeks-- crazy! Nothing big is going on- just a cookout and drinks on our deck, which sounds perfect to me. ...it better seeing as I'm the one who decided on that. Anyway, it's funny, when I was a kid I thought my life would be very different than it is now. I always imagined I'd be married, doing a job that I love and maybe have a kid or 2. But that's not the case-- I'm totally happy, doing a job that is OK and zero babies- I can't imagine my life any other way. Like things are gooooood. I feel like there's a lot more BF and I need to do before we settle and have babies (if we decide we want them). Like now that he's doing freelance, we need that to be stable before any big life decisions are made and we still have a ton of traveling to do. I don't know. I guess I always thought I'd feel and BE super grown up at 30, but seeing as I just had a nasty hang over 2 weeks ago, I guess that's not the case.

Also, I finally decided to do the old headphone trick at work-- keep them in, even if nothing is on so hooker heelz doesn't talk at me about her relationship as soon as my boss and AE leave for a meeting. It seems to be working. Thank god b/c I can't handle her any more.
