I have internet in the apt. now! So I'm playing catch up. Still no phone of my own, but hopefully that will change this upcoming weekend. But at least I have internet at my disposal so I can communicate a little faster/easier with everyone. If you haven't heard from me or I haven't heard from you in a while, e-mail me

So far I have a part-time (only 8-12 hrs/week) job as a Sales Associate for a clothing store in The WaterTower Place. It's very nice so far. I haven't gone there in a week though, my next work day isn't until Friday. I was hired at the restaurant but decided it wasn't my gig--it was much different than what was explained to me. I also was uncomfortable with the fact that every 2 weeks it's mandatory that you bring at least 4 people to an event and if you don't you lose shifts. I was sad I didn't get hired at CrossRoads Trading (it's a higher-end consignment store). It would have been nifty to work there.

In art related news I'll be contributing to Kilter for their Summer issue. Check out their website: [link]
I'm also working on some crafts and art for a gothic-inspired craft faire that will be happening in May at the 1901 Gallery: [link] Hope to see some of my fellow Chicagoans there. Don't feel obligated to buy anything from me, just stop in and say hi

Everything else is going well. I'm excited for warmer weather and I'm getting out alot more. Still can't afford to do much, but that's what free events are for and Chicago's festival season is coming up
