I’m baaaack! Well, hopefully, now that the chaos in my life (yes, seriously, chaos can happen even when one is not employed) has died down, I am back in the business of getting down to writing. Especially since part of my “job” plan is to try and find freelance work. I also am thinking about maybe going back to school. That is a big maybe right now. The University of Chicago has a medical writing program that I am interested in. And of course in a perfect world, I would be able to do that while going to school for nursing. So yeah, that’s on the horizon at the moment. Still applying to writing/communications jobs though too.

Anywaaaaaays, so yeah watched the movie ‘Factory Girl’ this afternoon. I thought Sienna Miller did a really amazing job as Edie. Actually everyone did a great job. I had no idea that Warhol was such a douche bag (for lack of a better word). Plus everything I read about him kind of backs that up. Tomorrow I’m going to run to the library and see if I can get Edie: An American Girl. Can’t wait to read it!! Need to finish my Gertrude Stein book first though. Guess I will be reading tonight!

My addiction of the moment, music-wise, is Cobra Starship featuring Leigton Meester, ‘Good Girls Go Bad.’ Go download it now. NOW! NOOOOWWW!

And speaking of Leighton…my niece Kourtnie Leighton is growing every day!! She is three weeks old! I get to see her on Tuesday, I can’t wait!! I will post pictures soon but want to wait for the birth announcement to go out before posting pictures. Also, my sis and I downloaded Sype so I can see her via video as well! So fun. If you are on Skype add me! My name is: popculturegrrl. Original I know.

Right. Back to being a veg head for a while (still eating fish, can’t give up sushi and crab cakes haha). I read Skinny Bitch, and while I don’t agree with everything they writers say, I did like a lot of it. I did give up most cheese (feta and goat I still eat) and have been feeling great. Even my acid reflux is better! It was funny because most of the stuff they recommend to eat, I eat anyway. So yeah…I just hate that organic food is so freaking expensive. But Jewel does have some great deals. Plus, they have everything in one aisle, which is helpful. I’ll give more upates as my new diet progresses, but right now I am happy with it. I was such a bad eater, and ate junk so now I still have “junk food” but it’s all healthy. And I always always read the ingredients, which I have been doing for a while. The less stuff in it, the better!

Okay, time to play Bejeweled 2. OMG I am obsessed. It’s a problem.

xoxo
