Hi!

Sooooooo I haven't been on here in a while it seems. It's not like I haven't had the time....I've graduated, have moved back home, and have no job. BUT, I will now fill you in on some things...I guess.

Alright, so my mom is finally getting married in July. And since I don't have a job, and have an art degree, I get to help in the creative department. We made all of her invitations. Those are done and I am mailing them out tomorrow.
(So, if you are a luck one to get an invite (Erin..), know that I was the one to cut out and tape down the ivory piece of paper.)
This afternoon when Mom got off of work, we headed up to the flower shop to pick out flowers. She doesn't want to hold flowers during the ceremony, but she asked me if I wanted to have flowers.
(My choice decided whether my sister and groom's daughters had flowers. I feel so special.)
I told her yes.
If I don't have something in my hand I am liable to fidget.
We're talking KStew level of fidgeting.
So, in the end, we got flowers. Don't ask me what kind. I don't remember. But they are a pinkish/purpleish color. Plus, we got flowers for table decor at the reception.
(Also, at the dance Mom just wants cake. Groom wants meatballs and cheese. Please laugh at how random this is with me.)

Job hunt: eghhhhh. I've been looking at jobs in the city. I've been there twice now.
Going to every gallery/art association/anything art related place and handing them my resume/filling out their application.
This last time I went, I hit up a couple of David's Bridals. They both happened to be hiring. One of them in the alterations department. They got really excited when they saw that I can sew. Soooo I met with the assistant manager, who introduced me to the alterations manager, who showed me around the alterations department. It would be an entry position, which is good because I don't have a lot of experience with sewing garments.
Hopefully things will come out of this. Soon would be good.

Um, my summer reading list is growing. A lot. I'm rereading Harry Potter right now. I'm on Chamber of Secrets. I freaking love this series.
And then I have people that give me books. My cousin gave me 2 books when I stayed with her while job hunting: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and The Host.
I'll get to reading them sometime....

Speaking of reading: has anyone read that Bree Tanner book SMeyer put out?? I have it pulled up on my computer, so I'll probably read it online before I decide if I'm going to spend money on it. Bree seems like a really random choice to write about.
Hey Stephenie Meyer: For your next Twilight related book, can we get the human story of Edward? Or Emmett? Or any Cullen/main character for that matter? Great, thanks.

Alright, I'm going to have to close this sorta random post. I have to go try on my dress for the wedding. Let's hope it still fits..

Sorry that I wasn't there to hand sew your project. I mean cut out your invitations.
