Back to Work: Obama and I return to the daily grind


Such an exciting week! To have a big holiday, followed by the most exciting inauguration I have ever experienced. The thrill in the air is palpable, and I hardly ever talk like that!

Another wonderful thing about this week is that I am working again…for now. I am at a company that is a temp’s dream: great hours, nice people, breakfast, lunch (yes, Virginia, there is such a thing as a free lunch in this town) and snacks provided, casual dress accepted…and they keep me busy. No time to worry about the origin of Palin babies*, alien life in Arizona or the looming Bush divorce as reported by the National Enquirer.

But, that being said, I have been too busy to make anything fun this week. I spent the weekend at a friend’s house and she taught me a really cool stenciling technique that I will be trying and talking about very soon.

I do want to give a shout out to The Steampunk Home. They picked up an excerpt from my post about Robbii Wesson’s artwork. If you have never seen this blog, you MUST. It has something to appeal to just about everyone—oh, the wonders you will see!

*don’t get me started on this-—but I do have to say: Google “Sarah Palin “and the”Target dog,” then tell me if that is a 7-month pregnant women, bending over, in a zipped-up coat, to pet a dog . That’s all I'm going to say...
