Dressed and ready to...CLEAN??!!!

I feel like all I do around this stinkin' apartment is clean. I guess if I spend so much time sitting on my derriere on the couch, the apartment will not clean itself. Since Tony comes back to town tomorrow, I feel like I should make sure it's all welcoming and shit. I did most of the dishes last night and should do a vacuum and perhaps a mop, for good measure.

I woke up with a start this morning when I thought that the mop bucket was stolen. I put it outside when I mopped last and did not remember seeing it at the front door. Luckily, when I ran and opened the door - there it was! Ah, thank you neighborhood delinquents for not stealing our bucket - like some asshole in Davis did. In my delight, I jumped back into bed with my computer and started my morning ritual in bed. I actually got out of bed around 8:30 and took a shower. Using Amy Cole's fashion wisdom, I did tuck in my shirt and put on a belt to show off my tiny waist. I headed to the 4th Street area to meet with a hairstylist for a model haircut consultation. Unfortunately, my hair is not right for the cuts she needs to do in the next few weeks and color she offered will cost me $25. A luxury expense that I just cannot afford right now. I hate that I have to say that. A psychic once told me that I would never have money problems. And she has been right - for the most part. I guess a few months trouble twice in 20 years is not so bad.

I was already out on by bike, so I decided to tool around the area. There are a ton of offices and businesses in the blocks surrounding my house. Okay, i was really looking for potential job ops, but alas there were none. I did call two more restaurants and will bring resumes by. I also heard from the theatre company with the education manager position and they should have a decision made next week. Some other things in the works in both dance and theatre - so fingers are crossed for something definite.

Okay, no more procrastination. Tunes on and cleaning commences!

Gratitudes:
1. potential employment
2. my hot water bottle
3. fresh veggies
4. my ability to cook
5. those who are safe and helping in Haiti
