Forcing the habit

I'm going to make a real effort while state side to write in my blog. I am terrible at keeping journals. In fact a spent a summer on one of the greatest adventures of my life and only have 3 pages about Pennsylvania to show for it. So I figure if I give myself a running start I might have the momentum to squeak out posts in a fairly consistant manner.

So I had a wonderful weekend. I spent Friday night working at an event in Costa Mesa at the Turnip Rose . The drive was a drag but the location was beautiful and the food was great. It was an art show for an alzheimer's charity and it went pretty well. So work is going well. I really like all of the people I work with. The work itself is very detail orientated, which can be frustrating. Although I am learning alot about event planning. I've put together a few events in my day, and I wish I knew this stuff back then.

I also went the Descanso Botanical Gardens with Ryan and my sister. We had a very nice time picnicing and looking at all the flowers.

We have food and are ready to go

But most importantly, I bought a pet. Calm down folks it's just a fish. My mother thinks its me longing for a more seditary lifestyle, but its just a fish. A black moor gold fish to be exact- so no problem with leaving home for a while. Hopefully I can get my sister to take care of him for a while and email me picutres while I'm gone.
