Whew, maybe it's because I'm now 30 (yikes!) or maybe it's just been one of those weeks. In any event, I'm SO glad tomorrow is Friday. It's been a pretty good week though:) I had a great birthday with flowers from Jon and some from my parents as well. I got loads of sweet emails/ecards and messages on myspace and facebook from friends and family. Jon and I cooked a tasty dinner of shrimp fra diavolo, drank wine and had a great night. I'm really excited for my party on Saturday and though the karaoke still makes me a little nervous, the excitement definitely is outweighing the nerves.
Too bad the rest of the week was a little blah. Nothing bad but nothing terribly exciting (other than an episode of Buffy that was quite distressing, don't ask). I'm cursed *cough*, er, "blessed" with a meeting about whether to keep The Good Earth in the curriculum tomorrow after school (postponed from last Friday because of the snow day). Honestly? If I'm out of the meeting before 5:30, I'll consider myself lucky. I dread it.
Oh, actually, there was some fun news yesterday. I got my first assignment for the Detroit Fashion Pages. Weirdly enough, it's a pure photo job, no writing. I'm shooting this event at the 555 Gallery & Studio in Detroit, a big DJ party type thing with this guy Ben Sims who is a DJ and producer from London. It's pretty exciting, finally getting paid for my work and all! Woot!
Ok, I guess since I have to go to work tomorrow I probably should DO some work. Blech.

Maybe also important to realize that now that you have a paid photo gig - if you can find the money for anything camera related - whether it be a lens, memory card, computer, or even software - you can deduct it from your taxes as a business expense. I believe you can also deduct gas to/from these events, and any other minor expenses incurred. (Keep a journal to log mileage/expenses to/from these events). Enjoy! Thats awesome!
