Unemployment was a blast for the first couple of months. Lots of long bike rides to the ocean. Benders galore. Weekend getaways to Tahoe. Trying out new recipes. Finishing all of those books I started. Finally putting up that IKEA shelf that's been sitting in my corner for years (thanks Nash)....you get the idea. The thing is, after a while I began to understand how stay at home moms become alcoholics. OK - time for a hobby. I've bought a banjo and have been attempting to teach myself the basics. My sewing machine has finally been dusted off. And last, but certainly not least I'm attempting to kill the luddite in me. So friends, welcome to my blog. I promise not to nerd-out about music too much, because lord knows I spend far too much time doing that.
Found this hilarious job listing on Craigslist today, upon continuing my never-ending search for gainful employment: "Oompa Loompas needed ASAP"
Seeking fun-loving, happy sales associates to work full or part-time in a fast-paced, magical candy store where every customer is invited to sample our fudge and taffy.
Hmmm...sounds like a creepy candy store if you ask me. I wonder if they make the little guys dress up?
While on a stroll in my neighborhood (and in an attempt to score some free food), I came across a beverage with my namesake! You can find this gem locally over at the Green Chile Cafe. While they don't have the proper spelling down, it's pretty fabulous nonetheless:
"Shake my hips before placing on your lips." Help me come up with some Samantha-esque double entendres for that one.
Decisions, decisions. Eek. Tomorrow I've got a tough decision to make.
A: Go on a date with a cute boy to see country legend Ronnie Milsap play at the county fair. Photobooths, horse races, elephant ears and ferris wheels sound like the perfect first date. Think there'll be a hayride?
B: Attend a reading and book-signing for the San Francisco Tape Music Center at the Page Street Library. Terry Riley will make a rare appearance and Stu Dempster will be busting out the dijiridu. That's why I love my local library!
C: Play wiffle ball in the park with the Revolver boys. They've somehow managed to get Saucony to sponsor them! I like free shoes and free booze.
What to do? And please, don't tell me to get a job.

Can you change the date and bring the cute boy to the library instead?? Two birds with one stone!
