I suck at the blog updates lately. Can't seem to find 15 minutes where I actually want to write about what's going on. I wish I could say I've been travelling the world and I've been too busy to logon. However, that is not the case. I have been busy, though. Work is busier now that I've taken on more tasks. I'm handling everything from the assistant-administrative stuff to the office-managerial stuff to the accounts receivable and invoicing now. With all of that, I barely have time to do real agent work. It's a good thing I only have a few clients of my own! The office is moving next month to a house in Santa Monica. It's a cute little three bedroom house, and it's about 4 miles from where I live. We've been doing the 20 story office building-parking garage-elevator corporate thing for two years now and no one has ever really liked it. We belong in a small office setting, a house! In March, when the lease starts, I'll go by and take some pictures so you can see what it looks like.
Besides work being busier, things have been busy at home, too. Season has moved in and things are beginning to feel official at Shubes Castle! :) It's a little cramped with the three of us, but I think it's going to be fine for the next 4 months, when Q-Jo leaves us for Texas! My weekends are usually full...but with little errands here and there and spending time with Justin and my shubes. We have not really done anything worth writing about. Like I said it's all little errands and life. A weekend usually consists of this: We take trips to chipotle (my favorite place at the moment), watch movies on netflix, make dinner (usually something picked up at Whole Foods lately), watch TV, go to Target, go to Renee's to meet friends for a drink. Also, Justin's looking for a new place to live right now, so that's been interesting. Finding an apartment in a particular area, within a certain budget, while trying to meet three people's (he has 2 roommates) requirements is tougher than it sounds. California real estate and rentals..everything!..It's all too expensive here. It's one of the few things I hate about living here, and it makes me jealous of everyone back home that are buying houses and condos or that are paying so much less in rent. I read Jamie's blog pretty often and she is building a house on an acre lot near Dallas. I don't even want to know what that would cost out here!
Here's what I'm looking forward to in music. Belle and Sebastian have a new album called The Life Pursuit and I believe it's going to be out soon, maybe this coming week even. And although I'm not a fan of the show (I watched it off and on in the first season only), the soundtrack to the WB drama, One Tree Hill is about to be released. I think it's the show's second compilation. This compilation features music from Feeder, Nada Surf, Hot Hot Heat, and Beth Orton to name a few. That's about it for the moment. FYI - I was not impressed with the new Ashanti CD. Generally this is not my taste in music anyway, but I've always liked her. But this album sucked. I can't even remember the name of it either, that's how bad is is.
Well, my blogging ends here for today. Hopefully, I'll get back into the routine of writing here more often. Happy Thursday!
