...has become this sad little thing:

One of many joys I had to leave behind in Savannah. Today I arranged the boxes containing unopened Star Wars figurines my brother had stored in one of the rooms in his house, and set up my little craft nook. He doesn't know yet. I don't care! This side of the house has the best lighting. All my craft materials were in my bedroom, and y'all can't understand how much I hate working in my bedroom. It's just...argh, not professional at all.

I am employed part-time at the restaurant. Thankfully, the situation over there has improved. I've even hung out with some of my co-workers. The time I am not seating crazy foreigners (I love y'all, really) I will be here. Crafting, working on my logo, on Mutation, helping my brother out in the house, holding myself together, cooking yummy Puerto Rican fritters and learning about repeat pattern design and other textile matters, in the hopes that it will lead me to a certain job that I am working hard for. Also, I kinda miss learning. But then again, learning is hard.

Just like shoelaces. OMG I have made it a crusade to avoid shoelaces at all cost. Shoelaces and I do not get along. Do not see eye to eye. If I need closed shoes (which I hate wearing, I'm a Caribbean flip-flop kinda girl) I search hi and lo for shoelace-less shoes. Thankfully, designers of the world share my hatred towards shoelaces and thus have created shoes just for me. So thank you, smart designers of the world. I owe you my peace of mind.

Wow, tangent.

I finally pinpointed all the places I have been in the USA on my awesome Cracker Barrel map. Somehow I don't think I've expressed enough my love for this map. I wake up in the morning and trace the freeways, the roads and am always amazed at how vast the West is. How desolate. My eyes always inevitably tumble towards Savannah, and then I veer off the southeast edges of the map and I Am Home.

Also, AWESOMENESS. It's like the gorilla's piss is the secret ingredient that purifies your car.

Can't end the post without my fantastic new haircut! I am THROUGH with long hair! Away, be gone! AND OMGZ FULLY FUNCTIONAL BANGS! Love this low humidity weather. Love love love.
