hide it, find it!

I am really a master at hiding money, among other things. I finally started cleaning up that pile of stuff that's been accumulating, for over an year (or more like 10 years). AND I AM SO GLAD I DIDN"T JUST THROW THEM OUT!

I found 200 dollars! Hahaha... I know I have a habit of saving money, of putting change into piggy banks, but man, it's definitely a different feeling when you open up a coin purse hoping for a couple quarters, and find 2 FRESH 100 dollar bills instead! Hehehe, in this shitty economy, that must be the best feeling ever. AND! I finally got my EDD claim forms, 4 at once! AWESOME. Though it's been hard in the past month or so, it sure is great to know that things are finally coming through, and that I won't be broke much longer. Thanks to EDD, otherwise unemployed ppl like me would be in deep deep s!

:) I hope I find more stuff, and yeah, it's quite a ride, down the memory lane. ...

I LOVE THE WEST SIDE!

Seriously, I felt so happy since yesterday and it was only because I knew, I would have a place to spend for the night and not have to rush back to O.C. I was thoroughly enjoying my two short days on the west side, like they said, "SHE"S IN TOWN!"

I miss it so much. I felt so alive being back. I just love being around there, everything seems so happy, so happening, and all the great memories came back. Ahhh, maybe because I was a student then when I lived there, and then I transitioned into a working professional and life was still fresh and fun. I love my life now, I don't have any complaints, except I really don't mind being able and having the choice, to be out and about on the West Side from time to time, mingling, catching up. The "vibe" (I really hate using the word, but can't think of a better one) is different, and I miss it. O.C. and L.A. is really really different, and I guess I should consider myself lucky to be on the border off. Because you know, things could be worse, I could be down south stuck in Irvine that area. I mean can't say I liked it when that was the case.... Ohh I am so glad I got out of that area.

Anyways, I had so much fun!!!! And the food, always good. yummmmm... happy happy happy thoughts. OHHHH and Pam was so kind to lent me her two very nice modern dining chairs. They look so damn good in the apt in front of the wall we painted. Finally, I can show case a very modern, very low budget project hahahaha.... I can do great work even w/o money dammit! hahaha...

Alright. Happy thoughts.. Happy mood, ready to have a happy dream.
