Good day, no major setbacks. Took some time to take down just two projects at work though. But when I went back through my schedule, it made sense that they proved to be more trouble than usual....

Brains have a good taste but their consistency is a little mushy. I'm envious, I don't believe I've had the oxtail yet. Was it in a stew?

I'll try to be there. But I also have a Haiti Relief charity event thing on the same night so I need to shuffle my schedule.

Ugh. Really tired right now, and drank probably a bit much last night.
Anyway, Friday was another intense day at work, but I happened to finish up fairly neatly and ended up having the time to mail off this FedEx to my friend in Portland. Something...

What did you think about Big Fan? I've been curious about it.

Bummer about the Czech girl. That's a shame because they are frequently insanely hot. My recommendation is that you not go so big next time, sort of pace yourself so you can gauge whether she is interested in you or interested in being wined & dined. I think a lot of women from Europe are used to traditional gender roles where the man pays. Anyway, better luck next time.

Pretty standard day today, all work, no play. Nothing of terrible import to report, and though I could go off on a million different tangents, theres no time for that tonight.

Oh god, I totally agree. I just had to watch that twice. I listen to the song in regular rotation, but it's been years since I've seen the video.

Pretty standard type day today. Work went fairly well, finished earlier than I thought. However, came home and found out my new Wii Remote is defective, so I gotta trade that in. Nuisance.

Hey. Nice to hear about your date. And I'm also very glad to hear that things aren't going too bad for you lately. I could say things are ok, but there's a lot of weirdness right now. I'm definitely in a transition phase, I was feeling it in 2009, but this year is now definitely announcing big big changes.
Aside the breakup, work is weird. I've been working in a bakery since may (and the salary is crappy), after being unemployed for about 6 months. I've worked in a studio as well since may, and quit after Christmas. I at least experimented with family and couple portraits enough to know it's not my thing (even if I suspected it). I'm working part-time now, but I just got a call to work 2 days a week with my ex-manager, in my field of expertise. I'm also starting to get some serious photo contracts in line, so that's another thing. Finally, I decided to change directions in my personnal work, and go more towards photojournalism, or politically committed art rather than fashion and portraits. Not that I won't ever do that again, but the subject just doesn't motivate me enough. So yeah, that's a lot.
And needless to say, the breakup fucks me up a bit. I'll really need some more money, I don't make enough to live by myself as it is now. And well, it seems Gab already is interested in someone else. A really, really attractive, and interesting... 18 year old. I don't even feel that bad about it, but let's say the whole situation makes me unstable. I am confident we are doing the right thing though, and I know things are going to end up fine. I just have to mourn a little.
Hope things will continue going in the right direction. Good to hear from you.

You are so interesting and intelligent. I'm glad you had a nice date- I think I may try out that resturant- I looked up the menu and it sounds delish. Say hello to Marg for me
