Sometimes I look at my bank account and hope that an anonomous someone has deposited a large some of money with so many zero’s that I get dizzy just from looking at it. No such luck yet.

I especially HATE the last two
The fellow who wanted me to do a mural for his resteruant also asked me if I could update his website. I took a look at it today, and sent him a mockup of what I would do to improve his website. Hopefully he likes it and messages me back. I also looked at paints & brushes, to get an idea of price and colour ranges. I think I really want to do this.
I also bought the rest of the Buffy comics today, cause I am a nerd like that.
Wired for sound
I drink coffee once every 3-4 months. Once. Literally. Today I am having an extra large vanilla latte. *twinge* I am not even half way through it and I am already about to bounce off walls.
Its my own fault really. I stayed out late last night, and had a drink while I was out. Jason and co. took me out to see The Great Orbax(!) and his side show freaks. Nails in noses, insectivoirs, giant rat traps. Good times! I didnt get to bed til midnight though and I can feel it today. wrenching myself out of bed was rough, it felt like I was Amanda Soup. Until Misu sneezed on me, then I felt like a sneeze gaurd. Who doesnt love being shocked out of a half asleep daze to kitty snot. Thanks Misu.
While I was getting my groceries, I bumped into a fellow, who runs own a resteraunt. We ended up talking and he wants me to paint a mural for him. Just like that he decided I was the one to paint a mural for him. So hopefully we will get in contact over the next few days. The one thing I need to do more of, is be pro-active. I would LOVE to paint a seascape mural for someone. So I need to latch onto this and find out the details.
As for the job I interviewed for, I recieved an email last night saying they would make a decision by wednesday. Im skeptical to be honest. However Greg tells me to look at it in a positive light. If they wanted nothing to do with me they would have just said “thanks but no thanks” already. And he is right, but cynical Amanda is starting to surface.
I am incredibly nervous about those posters. Argh *headdesk*.
I am going to go read about disturbing medical practices during WWII
I really really dislike feeling as though I am in a compitetion, even though that is exactly what this job is. I am sending off the Poster Mockups as I type this. I have a woobley feeling in my belly. Even though I read the email 10x I still feel as though I am missing part of the puzzle. Should I be intuitive and put in the contact info as well? Should I have even gone to their website and picked out their branded colours? Should my posters be more spontanious and filled with useless jargon. Argh. Atleast when I was competing in figure skating I had a coach. I need a life coach. thats what I need *rollseyes* yeah right.
With our further Adieu. My posters
