Getting Crafty In Here..

hi all...

So, I now only have to go into the studios for company class in the morning and then I'm done for the day. I guess I should take advantage of this because soon it's going to be Nutcracker time and I won't even have time to breathe. We have a "mini-performance" on Saturday morning at The Summit. Luckily, I am not in this part of Snow White so I get to go home and work at Yeah! Burger. YEAH! I need money $$$.

Last night I found some awesome crafty blogs! I decided to use my new-found-freedom (no rehearsals) to make some of these easy (and cheap!) Halloween decorations! :-D

Here's a pic of my amazing creations:

Paper pumpkin, Mummy-fied candle holder, and a cool eyeball candle holder! The pumpkins came out so cute and they were so easy! (Did you also notice I FINALLY figured out how to use Picnik?!)

I forgot that I was supposed to go pay the power bill after class this morning. I must remember to do this tomorrow. Plus deposit Jordan's check into that account.

Watched GLEE last night, umm apparently I was the only person totally NOT impressed with this episode. I thought it was horribly sad :(. Very depressing. However, I was most depressed when in the last 30 or so seconds of the episode my satellite signal for Fox decided to go out. So I missed the ending.

I'm pooped from my crafting. Hopefully I will get an appt for the chiropractor tomorrow as well.

Design?

Sorry. It has been a while. 

Yesterday we were on tour in Rainsville, AL. Yes, it is in the middle of nowhere Alabama. 
 

I am exhausted. I had to go in to take class for an HOUR. Yes, just an hour. No rehearsal. Ugh.
 

I want to work on my design of this blog but I can't quite figure it out yet.
 

OH! Today was the first time I ever posted on Craigslist! Strange. I put up an ad for the Alabama Ballet's Yard Sale tomorrow. I am really hoping we make some good money. Apparently we need that money to pay for hotel rooms in Anniston this year. Grreeeaattt.
 

Gnite. I am going to bed. Yes, I know it is only 9pm central time. Blah

Still Unemployed....

Soo.. to update from last post...I am still unemployed:

-On Thursday, that guy Jason from Tutti Frutti (the manager, by the way) called me at 10:59am (I was in ballet class so I missed the call) left me a message saying that he had actually lost an employee in the last couple of days and wanted to know if I was still available to work. Well, I got in my car at 11:15am and listened to his message. He wanted me to call him on his cell phone and let him know. So at about 11:16am (after check the I had written down the correct number..twice) I call his cell phone. He did not answer his cell phone. Of course. So I left a message saying that YES I AM AVAILABLE TO WORK and my cell number so he could return my call. I waited around all day thursday with my iphone glued to my hip, literally! It is now monday and I STILL have not heard back from him. A$$.

Moving on...

I ended up driving home late Thursday night back to ATL. My moms birthday was on Friday. :-) quite funny because we basically spent the ENTIRE day sleeping!  We have both been feeling horrible. She says its a ragweed allergy because "ragweed is really bad this year". Yeah, whatever. I'm totally messed up. My sickness keeps mutating into other forms. By Sunday it felt like my eyeballs were going to pop out of my head and my head was going to explode from the inside out. Luckily I picked up some Mucinex D from the lovely Pharmacist at Target and am feeling sooo much better. But I am really sick of being sick. Ugh.

So I stopped by Yeah! Burger because Amy called me and said my last paycheck was ready. I told her about my unemployment situation and she reiterated the fact that I can work for her anytime. Even if its just for a day or two over the weekend :-) So maybe I'm not EXACTLY unemployed...

Jordan, Sam, and I went to Buffalo Wild Wings on Sunday to join the Steelers Club in watching the Steelers game. They FINALLY won in overtime. Ha! Jordan was super psyched. I brought my tissue box with me. It sat on the table at the bar. Fun times.

Oh yeah. Saw Grown Ups on Weds at the dollar theater. VERY happy I only spent a dollar for that movie.

Alabama Ballet season started today. Almost died. Tired of blogging. I'll prob blog tomorrow. I've got lots of time on my hands due to my joblessness.

Unemployed..

So to give info on my title, I am officially unemployed. Apparently the job I THOUGHT I had, I actually DID NOT have. Apparently they are still doing "interviews" and I have yet to be called. When I drove over there with Cortney a week ago I realized it would be way too far for me to drive anyway. Blah.

I went ahead and filled out an application (which I attached my schedule and resume to as well), which I dropped off at a new self-serve frozen yogurt place in SoHo. (That is South Homewood for all you folks that don't know about our hip lingo here in B'ham.) The manager said they were basically fully-staffed, but after I told him I was able to work weekends (and basically whenever, when I wasn't performing) he seemed more open to looking at schedules. He said he would look at the schedules to see if he could fit me in after he saw how fully prepared I was with an application and all that. So hopefully I will get a phone call soon.
