Holding out for a hero...and a job.

After a lot of nagging on my mom's part, I went and got my hair cut again this morning...I am once more sporting the chin-length bob. Up until a few months ago, I never thought I'd like having short hair for a long period of time...but I'm loving it! The only downside? I can't put it up in twists, rolls, and braids like I could when I had long hair. Other than that, it's great! My former neighbor, Jeralyn is getting married on Saturday and my sister and I are attending the wedding along with my parents. Therefore, my mom's gonna go batshit crazy making sure we all look perfect for family photos. It should be a good time...I just hope there's an open bar.

So, I definitely did not get the dance teacher job I was up for. They held a grand opening for the new studio in Fishkill over the weekend. I never heard a word one way or the other from the girls who run the studio...no offense, but that's kind of rude and classless. I schlepped all the way down to Peekskill to give a trial class for them...the least they could've done was send me a rejection e-mail or phone call. Things are still not looking so good on the job front...I applied to a few more publishing jobs I found on Hot Jobs and even filled out an online application for secretary/receptionist jobs on the HealthQuest website. And I haven't heard a thing from anyone. Grrr. Does anybody wanna hire me???? My talents/skills include dancing, singing, acting, choreographing, faxing, copying, answering phones, making coffee, making smoothies, writing, editing, proofreading, blogging, making mixed CD's, and a bunch of other stuff I can't think of at the moment.

I had a pretty good week last week, other than that. Wednesday I went to the Dutchess County Fair with Dad & Lauren where we saw a lot of animals and ate like fat kids, Thursday I saw Jessica in Urinetown: The Musical...it was very different than most musicals I've seen before - very tongue-in-cheek and she was fabulous in it, Friday was Game Night...we had a large group of 14 so we were able to play "Mafia" and "Psychiatrist" in addition to Apples to Apples and Scattergories. On Saturday, I saw Amanda in "Like We Wasn't People," and she was awesome...she has quite the talent for playing the dark, dramatic roles and this one in particular was intense. Sunday was the Wine Festival at Bethel Woods - we brought home 6 bottles of our favorite wines! It was a good time. We'll probably be going to the Food & Wine Fest at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in 2 weeks.

Oh, also on Thursday, I received some good stuff in the mail - Kellie was kind enough to send me the 2nd half of season 5 and all of season 6 of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, and another letter. We'll see what happens.
