still alive

the chair is finished and sitting in my living room. i'm having a hell of a time trying to figure out a good workspace. i bought this cart that i now have in here, but what's pissing me off is that the mouse is having trouble picking up the wireless signal. how can this be? it's friggin' 2 feet away. it's really been pissing me off. the keyboard has been ok.

 

yesterdayat work a bunch of us were talking about our ages. dan goes, "elizabeth is the youngest" and ipod guy goes, "and the smartest" and i was like "aw, thanks!" and then, my manager goes, "yes, she is!" very seriously and the other woman nods. i was like, whoa, i had no idea i was viewed as this smart person. i wonder what i give off that does that. i swear to god i do nothing different around there. it was the same at the library, tom and amy were always exclaiming about my intelligence and i was just doing a typical job. it's funny. but hey, i won't complain about appearing intelligent. i like it.

 

dan said, "and i'm the most drunk!!" woohoo!......

 

i was really hoping this cart/table would work, but i don't know. i was looking for like a tv table type thing, but couldn't find any. this was nice because it rolls and has storage space. maybe i'll go to ikea this weekend. i need a bookshelf anyway, and maybe something that i can use to bring stuff up to the apartment.

 

i found a website today where you can enter contests to do photoshop work. you get paid if you win. i think i'm going to give it a try. i can do good stuff with photoshop if i have a reason. one of them that's open right now is to create an image that portrays something from the future. i don't think i'll do it because you only get two days and one day is already up. plus, i couldn't think of a good enough idea.  it's cool looking at the pictures, anyway. there were a couple i saw where i could tell exactly what they did and it looked weird. and there were a couple that looked super easy. but there were some where i was like, shit, that is incredible. i like art.

 

i'm going to get a new phone soon.
