- I am still wearing the heart monitor. I can not WAIT to be rid of it. I've made it through almost 30 days of wearing it and Friday night I will be FREE! I know it was a good decision to go through wearing it and I did have an episode about two weeks ago which got recorded which is the whole point of wearing it, but I hate, hate, hate wearing it. Not only do I have four electrodes and a little disc the circumfrence of a coffee mug attached to me at all times, the stupid adhesive on the electrodes makes me break out in a rash. A rash I have now had for over four weeks. A rash I can't get rid of until I can stop wearing the stupid electrodes. It's agony. It's sort of like having chicken pox all over your torso but for four weeks. Needless to say, if you hear rejoicing on Friday night, you'll know who it is.
- School is over for the summer (yay!) though they didn't have contracts for us to sign which makes me somewhat nervous since there was talk of layoffs. I like to think I'm fairly safe since I'm the head of the department, but I'd still have felt a lot better walking out with a signed contract in my hand.
- I have been invited to over 15 graduation parties for seniors. I don't think I've ever had quite so full a social calendar. It's flattering at the same time though, and I'll really miss those seniors. Of course now they're allowed to be friends with me on facebook (that was my rule, I'm not your friend on facebook until you graduate) so I get to hear all about what's going on...
- I started my Constitutional Law class today. It's just an online class through the continuing ed program at WCC, but I'm still excited about it. I took a Journalism Law class when I was at MSU and LOVED it (totally nerdy, I know) so I'm looking forward to this. If it goes well I'll probably take the Evidence Law classes they offer too. Who knows, maybe I'll give the LSAT a shot...It's something I've always kind of thought about, so maybe I'll just do it and see what happens.
- I've started running again (yay!). Bummed that I had to miss the 5k I was going to do back in early June, but I've set my sights on doing a 10k in November. It felt really good to be running yesterday, and if I'm going to all these grad parties, I better start running again. Seriously, the amount of food at these things is nuts.
- Jon and I have our tickets for Arizona to go to Josh and Julie's wedding. I'm a little nervous about Phoenix in late July though. I am SO not a hot-weather person. Good thing the house we're staying at has a private pool. I think I'll be in it all the time (provided my stupid hives go away and I can wear a bathing suit without everyone thinking I have some awful skin disease.)
- I think I'm going to do some photography at Kelly's fashion show. She just graduated from FIT and is trying to put together a show of her stuff for late summer/the fall. I think that would be really cool, though I've never shot anything like that before. Worth a try :)
- I don't remember if I ever mentioned it, but in addition to writing for Revolt, I've been writing for Chris Schwegler's site. If you've never heard me mention him, he's a photographer in the Detroit area that gets to go to ALL the big stuff. Coldplay. Eminem. Elton John. Billy Joel. Aerosmith. Green Day. So, I've salivated over his photos for a number of years now and finally just emailed him one day and asked him if he needed anyone else, either as a writer or photographer. So, he hired me as a writer! I've got quite a few reviews up at his site now but one of the most exciting things was that I got to shoot the Lily Allen show for him! My photos and review of the show are here. I put in requests for a number of other shows this summer, I hope at least a few of them come through. It was pretty damn cool getting to photograph Lily Allen though. Totally fun show :)
