Okay. So I think the person I dedicate most of my entries to here is Cary. But, Rami Raff, this is for you! Rami, or Ramold, or Dramold, told me that he checks this blog every day and, unfortunately, I don't update as often as he would like. I am making a solid attempt though. For real. Sometimes I just don't think I have anything good to say.

ANYWAY.

My friend, Becca, has a really wonderful blog. I would link it but Vox won't let me add more links. This is one of the many reasons I think I'm going to make a tumblr. Sorry, Erica! I do appreciate you joining this site just for me though. Don't think that has gone unnoticed. So Becca's blog, plus minus: 2 girls 1 blog is kind of amazing. She and her friend divide things by +: things they like, -: things they don't like, +/-: things they aren't sure if they like, and ?: questions. It's very witty and I agree with a lot of things they +/-/?. Becca is great, okay?

I have heard a lot recently (at least 3 months) that I look like people's friends. I can think of at least three people in NY who have told me that I look like a friend of theirs. If you think I look like someone else, who is it? Only tell me if they're cool, okay? Thanks. I don't need to hear about looking like people you don't like. That will not make me happy.

Hey, look at my cousin's cat. This made me laugh for the longest time. We should make an LOLcat caption for it. Y/Y?!

That's kind of the best reason to do anything. ANYTHING. I will excuse most things if a cute boy tells me that I'm pretty. Oh no. I've said too much.

I went to South by Southwest. I wrote a huge thing about it and then my computer went crazy and I lost every witty thing I said and I can't remember it all. True, I did attempt to write about it DAYS ago, but whatever. So I saw a lot of bands and drank a lot of free beer. A lot. I have a crush on like 5 thousand of our clients. I am maybe kind of inappropriate. Although, I do have about 2 thousand crushes on non-clients. So that's cool, right?

I had a lot of clever things to say but I just don't have the energy. I just don't want my most current words to be so Debbie Downer. This is probs the most noteworthy thing here: I added a new link to my friend Laura's blog. It's called Follow That Ostrich. Don't get confused- it's not actually about ostriches. Laura is smart and knows a lot about music. She also seems to see tons of celebrities. Oh, LA.

Maybe I'll post some photos of my current band crushes soon. 

Before I start to talk about something really shallow and silly, I would like to tell you about another friend's blog. My pal, Rami, has a lot to say about a lot of movies. He has seen pretty much everything, and really knows what he's talking about. He's also really funny. You will find a link to his blog, thesicknesscinema.blogspot.com, in that list where my other friendblogs are. Speaking of that thing, there's also those other friends I talked about before. Are you reading their blogs too? If not, please do. I have really clever friends.

Okay, back to me.
I decided to grow my hair out until Spring. To satisfy my constant need to change my hair, I dyed it last night.  My hair is naturally a pretty dark brown, but I wanted it to be darker.  I decided to go for a nice, soft black. I was hoping it would be dark like Sarah Silverman's hair, because she is SO cute.

Isn't she cute?  And her hair is beautiful.  Well, I could only wish for my hair to be dark, long and pretty like hers. My new hair color now more like  Jerry Lewis. 

How unfortunate.  Maybe it will not be so severe once it washes out a little bit. I want to trim my bangs too, but I'm nervous about how that will end up. If I mess up, I won't be able to take it back! Decision, decisions.

If you are suspicious that I only update my blog when I add a link to a friend's blog, I would think you may be correct. My friend, Terry Wunder, has a blog called, "The Wunderblog." He has so far talked about some movies, craigslist, kid nation, and more! Read it. Okay, thanks.

Did I mention that I was working at a restaurant and then quit? Well that happened. Now, I'm temping. I might go back to retail also. It doesn't really matter, I guess. More exciting is that Jacqui and I have started our documentary. I use the word "started" a little liberally, I think. We have an idea of what we want to do and have started some research, but we still need recording equipment, which is a big deal. Anyone have a spare digital audio recorder and mic just lying around? Yeah, didn't think so.

We saw some comedians at UCB last night. It was really fun. I'll be honest. I think I have a crush on Aziz Ansari. Jacqui and I saw this guy in the audience who we were pretty sure we worked with on the "KZSC Community Calendar" years ago. And then Jonah Ray straight up mentioned him in his act, so we were positive it was him. We did not, however, talk to him after the show because we had no idea what to say besides, "Hey. We went to college together. Remember us?" I think it's weird that I suddenly don't like running into people. I mean, I never loved it. But now I dread it when I recognize someone in a place I was not planning on seeing them. Will they recognize me? I hope not. Do I have to say hi? Maybe because I usually run into people that I don't want to talk to. I know a lot of people in the NYC area, and a lot of them are people I do not want to talk to. I mentioned this to Jacqui the night I got here and she told me that it is almost physically impossible to run into anyone because New York is full of people. That was a legit thing to say until, also that night, we ran into someone we knew from KZSC. Luckily, he's a person I like talking to. When Jacqui recognized this guy last night, she said, "Turn around. Don't we know that guy?" and for a good half minute, I didn't want to turn around. I ran through in my head a (pretty short) list of guys in NYC that I do not, under any circumstance, ever want to talk to. I was sure I was going to see the face of a terrible person. When did I stop liking people?

I have to dress business-y for my temp job. All but one of my pants are denim or corduroy, and unacceptable for a business environment. I hate pants shopping.

Well, I did it. I actually followed through with a plan. I moved to Brooklyn. It's been two weeks, and I am still not regretting my move. Perhaps it was a good decision? I don't know. Ask me this winter.

I found a job but I'm not sure if I'm going to stay with it. I might go back to my old retail job because I can and I like discounts. I'm also applying for some other things that are kind of serious and "real" jobs, but I feel like I don't want to get my hopes up.

Living with Jacqui again is awesome. I forgot how it felt to be so geographically close to my best friend! It's pretty great. We have been going for little walks in the morning around Fort Greene and it's pretty nice. Our neighborhood is fantastic.

I don't really have much else new to report and I want to finish writing that cover letter I'm supposed to be working on.

I just added another link to that little side thing. I still haven't figured out how to make it bigger. Hm. Anyway, it's my friend Erica's blog, "read.dance.bliss."  Those three words are pretty Erica-esque, I think. That's probably why they are the title of her blog. ha.
