Ohhh, I feel like this week has been incredibly long. Possibly
because it is the first full week of work I’ve had in a few weeks…don’t know,
but I am TIRED and very much looking forward to the weekend. Not only to sleep,
but also because of the possibility of…SNOWPOCOLYPSE. We’ll see….

2. Ohhh,
last week we had a Feng Shui master come in to our office (this is something
that has been happening since the beginning of TB), and since I am covering
facilities for the time being, I got to be a part of it. Meaning, I followed
him around to the various offices and took notes about what changes needed to
be made. Then, since I was new to the Feng Shui experience, he did my ‘reading’…using
my birth date, year, and time…fascinating. Apparently I am VERY lucky…born the
year of the dog and the day of the rabbit (those two get along very well), he
assured me that I will be very happy my WHOLE life, into old age. Which, I mean
really- minus the old age part, I already knew. Being happy doesn’t mean bad
things don’t happen, it just means you handle those things in a certain way. He
did say that this next year will be fine…nothing special, but then the four
years following will be VERY good years, particularly 2016. So, you know, that’s
always good to hear. He also told me to avoid oily foods, to which I made an
incredibly oily soup for dinner that night and got a terrible stomachache.
Great.

4. Meanwhile,
while we were enjoying some Baby, Baby, Baby whoa…we were missing the January
Round. We weren’t planning to go, but it was still there in the back of my
mind, as it always is when I don’t go (what if I’m missing some great local
musician that I don’t know about…like a Bryan John Appleby)…Brian’s roommate
went. AND, he came home with one of the paintings! I have always wanted to buy
one of the paintings that is created right there and then auctioned off, but I’ve
never really looked into it…never had any idea how much they go for, etc. So
first off, I thought it was cool that he went and bought one…and then I saw who
the artist was…Henry! Who has murals all over Ballard and Wallingford. I LOVE
Henry. I want to have a Henry mural painted in a kids room. SOOO bummed to have
missed him. BUT, Jared bought one, which is pretty exciting.
5. Wednesday
night was the first movie night of 2012…and it was a hit. The theme was Summer Blockbuster,
and we had popcorn and classic movie candy (hot tamales, junior mints,
whoppers, milk duds, licorice, etc) and watched Super 8! Love that movie. There
are definitely things about it that I thought could have been done different (I
just didn’t like the ‘monster’…it needed to be something that was easier to
have compassion for), but it was cast so well…those kids are each so perfect
for their roles. So fun. And as always, love having people over and chatting
and laughing.
There you go. Here’s hoping for some epic snow this weekend into next week…or really, any snow at all, it doesn’t need to be epic. But my jeep would love something epic.
You have a blog!!! I didn't know!!! :) :)
