So this weekend I decided I wanted to straighten my hair. I was asked to do some hair modeling for a Japanese hair straightening process and I thought what a great idea. I just had that dream about having straight black hair and really wanted to try it. I decided I would perhaps straighten it with a iron first to see what I actually look like with non curly hair. I didn’t want to commit right away. So I spent 3 hours pulling my hair straight, breaking my arms, wondering what the final outcome would be. Since my hair is so curly I didn’t know what my layers would look like when straight. It actually wasn’t that bad. a little choppy in the front but I could deal with that. I couldn’t stop petting my head and running my fingers through it. It felt so good. It was also fun to see the looks on the faces of my friends when they saw it. HAHA! but after all that work I don’t think I’m going to get it done permanently. I think I like my curly hair more than I thought. PLUS! I would look like a freak when my hair started to grow back in curly.

Saturday night we went to MisShapes and had a lot of fun! I danced till I could no longer dance! Sunday I got up late and we made a huge breakfast with muffins, eggs, bacon, sausage (which of course I didn’t eat) blueberry waffles, fruit, and french toast sticks. So good! Come over next weekend!

For once I am home alone. It’s such a strange feeling yet I welcome it! I can do whatever I want……..

I posted a bunch of pics from Ghana that I have been meaning to do.

Jenny Towner you can count on her! She just sent us her final film project and a video she made with footage while she was here! It is so GREAT!!!!

My weekend was good yet weird. A nice 3day weekend. Spinner came up from Baltimore to see a jazz show that didn’t go as planned. Saw the Berkley College of Music jazz band! They were awesome! Hung out, DROVE around the CITY!!! TIME SQUARE!!! SCARY!! I went and had a few drinks and food with Taylor at Sushi Samba ran a few errands, and picked up a new book!

I can’t seem to get enough of Haruki Murakami. His books are sooooooo gooood! I try to read other books but I just can’t get into them like his. so far I have read 5 of his and I liked them all but I think my least favorite is Sputnik Sweetheart. For some reason I just wasn’t into as the others. I just felt like something was missing from the story line. So it’s now Kafka on the Shore! YEAH!

We had a photo shoot at work today! I some how had a small, very painful splinter enter my finger that I can’t get out, and I have seen my fair share of the Chapelle Show. We need to get that chord to hook up or Free TV! wait i didn’t say that…….

I had this crazy dream that I had this long black sleek hair that sorta looked like this. It was so cool that I considered chainging my hair. How crazy would that be. My hair now is pretty distinct and it would be so drastic to change it, but so sweet to have something else. Maybe I’ll just get a wig!

So this past weekend as I was wandering around Brooklyn and I discovered that the Cosby Show is now on DVD! YES! I have always said that if it ever came out on DVD I would totally buy it! I didn’t buy it because I didn’t feel like spending the $40 on it at the time but I will hopefully get it soon! One of my favorite episodes is where the family lip-syncs to that Ray Charles song.

Over X-mas I stupidly jumped out of freight elevator before it was down to the next floor landing on one knee. I think I bruised it pretty bad because I still can’t kneel on it without going into convulsions because of the pain.

I’m sad becasue my iPod is kaput! It doesn’t work any more. Time for a new one? :(

I once was an angel. and i sat and sewed and sewed and sewed lives together and myself to the limbs of trees so that I would have enough water in me for the next life. then I became the wind. yarn. and the purple sun on tuesday mornings. snakes formed my spine and slithered my mind which has been and will forever smell like cockle shells. my heart was tangled in bone toggles and chinaberry bushes. my carcass hard and soft, blue and orange. I was bees and flies and satain locks.

Ok, so bored at work that I’m posting second entry today because I have nothing better to do. I have already organized all the CD’s we are currently working on by their #. Moved CD’s out we are no longer working on. Cleaned my space and even ASKED for work to do. I’m too fast for my own good. You think that I would have learned something from working all those government jobs that I had. Take…… your…… time……!

I’ll take this time to update on the holidays. X-mas was good! Wasn’t quite as fun as previous years, but good. Colorado was so warm. I hauled my huge winter jacket home for nothing. 60 degrees! It might as well be spring. I hung out with my old roommates Marcy, Carrie, and Alison. What a riot! I also Annie, who I feel like I should see more since she is just north of me as well as Lizzy P and she just lives south of me. But you know how it goes. I did get to see John in Denver. We went to the Zoo lights. I must say it was pretty fun! I guess I really don’t have much to say.

I flew home had a long NYE. I went to a party downtown. It was fun but not off the hook. But some how with detours, mayhem and debauchery I didn’t get home until 9am. I tried to sleep but I didn’t nod off until 2pm and from then on my sleeping schedule has been so messed up.

Also, strange thing I was contemplating the other day. I noticed that I normally better friends with guys. I feel more comfortable around them. But here in NY I’m surrounded by girls mainly (roommates ect.) it’s weird. I need an escape sometime. But it was nice to get a few calls from Slater, Negrettie, John Verde, and Keith over the holidays. I miss them!

I think I’m going to head to the Apple store after work

My eyes feel like they are sinking back into my skull becasue I am so tired. I didn’t get any sleep this weekend at all . My plan was to go home after work yesterday and sleep but a few of us decided to go see my roomate at work. Again I was up late. Now I have to figure out what I’m going to do with myself today at work because I have nothing to do! make myself look busy or ask for work to do? either way I’m going to be in a daze.

P.S. I love pomegranate juice. Why is it so expensive?
