The dog ate my homework, and earrings.

My first day of official unemployment....it's been great so far. If you call my cell I've been answering it:
"Thank you for calling the office of Sarahfae - officially unemployed. How can I help you?" 
Granted, I've got a couple of really awesome irons in the fire --- so I don't anticipate being in this position for long *fingers crossed*.
For the time being I plan on packing up our house in preparation for the big move (squee!!), doing about a thousand loads of laundry, cleaning, and making a ton of yummy food.
In addition, my personal goal is to do a lot of soul searching (says the Atheist) in the area of my education and musical aspirations. D keeps piping at me to write more music, mainly because I don't want to do another show until I've got a good amount of new material to play. With the help of my very good friend Deric, I'm hoping to record a solid ep sometime early next year.

I dropped off a bunch of Thank you cards to my co-workers this afternoon. That felt good. I love giving hand-written cards to people.

Amusing thoughts that are in my mind at the moment:

Lucy ate one of my pearl earrings. Yes, I'm watching all of her bm's to try and recover it. I know, it's gross.
One of the many things that we've learned about being owners of a dog that will chew on/eat ANYthing is to keep all small objects out of her reach. This includes: remotes, candles, pens and pencils, plastic bottle caps, plastic bottles, books and magazines, wireless cards, bluetooth devices, batteries, wine/champagne corks, headbands, tupperware, jewelry, dradles, and ear plugs. (The aforementioned are all things that Lucy has put in her mouth, if not destroyed or consumed.)

A certain husband of mine, who will remain nameless, admitted to liking "some"  chick-flicks. This occurred yesterday when said husband (who will still remain nameless) got caught watching "27 Dresses". I love this man so much!
 

Big Bang, and Buffy

I don't find myself watching much TV unless D is home (he's the TV fanatic), but for some reason I found myself watching  the funniest show this evening: The Big Bang Theory. Witty, cute, and full of really great characters. Sometimes it's nice to turn off your brain and laugh at one dimensional people and their pretend lives.

In other TV related news:
One of my favorite girlfriends has recently introduced me to "Buffy". Yep, as in "the Vampire Slayer". I am ridiculously, shamelessly, obsessively hooked. Wednesday has been dubbed "Buffy night" - since D has band practice, and S's Bf does too. She's got the entire series, and we've already finished season one.
I never thought I'd be "like this" about such a cheesy show --- but I am, and it's so much fun.
Sometimes it's nice to turn off your brain and get lost in one dimensional high schoolers and the vampires they slay.
