What I'm reading

I've been told I have "interesting" taste in books, so here is a link to what I'm reading, or have read in the immediate past.

Right now:

    Portrait of a Master: Leonardo by Bruno Nardini. I bought this book in Italy and can't find it on Amazon.


Just finished:

Contest with myself

ebay Profits:
    June 20: $2.48 Total = $2.48 (ok, i've got a long way to go!)
    June 27:$8.17 Total = $10.65
    June 30:$12.30 Total = $22.95
    July 12: Total = $42.79

    Aug 9:Total = $653.24, or $107.10 for gambling GOAL REACHED!

I'm not sure I'll be making much more money. I've run out of things to sell. Oh, i've still got plenty of junk i'm getting rid of, it's just not ebay worthy.



I have decided to move this fall.

Therefore, I am trying to get rid of as much stuff as I can. Some of it I'm trying to sell on eBay.


I decided to challenge myself to make as much money as I can. I'll set aside that money for gambling in Vegas!

my summer vacation

I just mailed off a letter to future Vicki.

Andrea put out a call for people to write letters to themselves saying what they did to be happy, healthier this summer. We mail the letters to her and she mails them back at the end of summer.

I had pretty high standards for myself, it will be fun to see how wrong or how right I am!

"All the Woulda-Coulda-Shoudas
Layin' in the sun,
Talkin' 'bout the things
They woulda-coulda-shoulda done...
But those Woulda-Coulda-Shoudas
All ran away and hid
From one little did"

new color scheme

I decided to change the colors on Project Vicki.

I completely ripped off Loobylu's color scheme. Of course hers looks a million times cooler, but I love this blue background.

I am making terrible progress on some of these goals. I haven't done yoga in weeks and haven't taken any long walks.

But, I HAVE been in a crafty mood the last couple days. Since I haven't heard from them, I'm going to assume I've not been accepted at cut+paste, so I'm going to try a different idea* with copacetique. Wish me luck!


* I don't want to give away my neat idea!

broken foot

Started Illustrator training classes today. It gave me a headache though. The sound was so hard to hear, and I was furrowing my face straining to hear.

Spent the weekend playing nursemaid to Mike. He broke his foot on Thursday. That was fun since he was loopy from the drugs and alternating between silly, grateful, and being a jerk.

And that kind of puts a damper on our taking walks together! Guess I'll have to do that during the week by myself.

Get to see Stephen Malkmus Thursday! Yay!

indy 500

Mike and I had an awesome time at the Indianapolis 500 this weekend.
We enjoyed our privileges as members of the media and Mike took his role as "photographer" seriously!

Will have pictures later!
