Wow...can't believe it's Thursday already. Gotta love short weeks.
My weekend in Vegas was just as fun as I thought it would be. Although, by the end of day two I wanted to get the hell outta that shithole. I can't stand more than a couple of days there. It was cool though, I got to know a new person...a girl my friend Melanie works with. Her name is Tyra and she's a really fun chick. The three of us had a great time together. I only lost a little money in the slots and those were the only things I played. I just don't understand how people can sit at those things for hours and hours and blow money. They just suck it away from you. They lure you in with a few wins and then it's just lose, lose, lose! Walking the strip was fun, got to see various freaks and such. Very fun to people watch there.
This week has been pretty good so far. It had been raining since last Thursday and it finally stopped yesterday morning. We encountered some pretty harsh weather on the drive to and from Vegas. It was downright SCARY, actually. I had a sore neck by the time we got home because I was so tense for the last part of the trip. But I'm very happy to see the sun, this IS California. So it finally stopped raining which means I could finally go outside and jog this week.
I finally got a meeting in with my friend that I'm going to be illustrating a book for... We had been trying to get together on this project for YEARS. She is an extremely busy person though, works two jobs and goes to school. I don't know how she does it! But the book will be on the way as soon as I get my butt in gear and do some drawings. This will be my second major illustration project, my other one is in the works...well sorta, just waiting for it to be picked up by a publisher (crossing fingers).
I haven't been able to see my boyfriend as much as I'd like to this week. We've both been pretty busy and it's really complicated by the fact that he works nights. So I will be seeing him at 11:00 tonight...bleh. I'd better nap. I also get to go grocery shopping tonight....double bleh. I hate grocery shopping. I've avoided it long enough though 'cause I can't scrape together any more meals.
That's about it for this exciting entry.... Later!
