So I haven’t updated in a while, I haven’t abandoned the project, I’m dutifully taking photos everyday, as boring and predictable they are beginning to be, my social life has tapered off a bit.

So in the time since we last talked, my unemployment was cut more than 50%, I turned 35 and got pretty depressed in general.

I’m doing better now but it’s hard to live with a budget of no spending money period. It’s taken a bit to adjust to and i’m doing better than I ever thought!

I’ve been meeting with a career counselor and took some tests last friday to see where my skills are and what will cross reference with what I want to do and what my value set looks like. I’m really excited to see what the computer pops out for me! I took it 10 years ago and it said I should be a Lawyer or a Hospital Administrator… Interesting to say the least, and well, I’m neither of those things.

I went to a show! I saw The xx it was beautiful, the music was good, the lighting was FANTASTIC. Next up is OK Go which I’m so amazingly excited about. They are playing the Hawthorne Theater which isn’t the best for seeing much of anything, but it’s small and the idea of being in such a small place with such an amazing band thrills me. Not sure how they will do it but I’ll be at the front watching to see how it’s done!

I’ve been watching a lot of movies and far to much TV on Hulu. I’ve gotten attached to shows I never heard of and realized I had seen almost half the episodes of My So Called Life which really was a shock.

I’ll do another update with my new Hulu findings even if it runs me the risk of loosing any credibility I’ve earned anywhere. (It’s not ‘Legend of the Seeker’ I promise)
