funemployment



hello friends,

yesterday i became another casualty of the recession. indeed, i will never take another photo in the broom closet at work; you will now be able to chart the messiness of my room, i suspect, by eyeing the black and white portion of my photos. i won't post as early in the morning, either. but other than that, the biggest change, i think, will be my demeanor. i loved my coworkers and the company i worked for, and i did so for three long years. but now? now, i essentially get to enjoy a sponsored summer in new york city, a city many argue is the greatest in the world. i won't have to cut a post short to get through a stack of papers, but, rather, to get to the park or my pile of sewing or a museum, play, concert. this will be the audrey summer of love.

so, today i may or may not do an outfit post - this one is from yesterday, the picture taken before i got the news. i left on great terms, and i feel pretty darn good. it's friday, damn it, and i'm going to go get some coffee, read a book, and kick back my legs until it's time to go to class to play with flour and sugar. it's 12:18, and i am still in bed.

let the summer begin!

  1. hooray! happy summer. right now i am sitting in my underwear with a green towel on my head. i have to decide whether to keep reading my zora neale hurston book, or finish my joyce carol oates book. it's a hard life. whatever i choose, there will be coffee & lots of it. also, no pants.

    you're going to have a wonderful summer.

  4. Positive outlooks and an openness to life like this lead to greater happiness and greater things in the future. Plus I think sharing this view wears off on people...and that's a good thing. I wish you a full and rich summer!
