House of Days

ALllllllright people, let me make some updates. Because I MoVeD and all..

Let me start with this. I am currently sitting at my small table eating cereal, drinking coffee, writing this, while watching the today show. What? The today show? Yeah, don't worry, I certainly don't like this show, but is it so wrong that I want it in the background? If I had cable I would certainly be watching something else like Fresh Prince, Millionaire Matchmaker, or even music videos I would want to yell and throw things at. This means I am stealing basic cable where I live, because I don't want to pay for it, especially since I pay for my internet (Yourcigarettestench).






Cold walks back home.

Moving on.

I started work shortly after moving here, transfered to starbucks, and I think the transition was harder than I thought it would be..but all is well now. Except for my apron, which has been washed and febreezed but will never smell clean. I'm disgusted too. The thing that is the biggest change though are all the homeless men outside our store. Mark is quite nice and has some manners, but James is so angry and has a spitting problem, he also likes to feed pigeons. Free entertainment. 



Things so carefully placed along the way.


Jeff, Piers from America's Got Talent is about to be on the Today show


Speaking of America's Got Talent, you know, that really bad TV show that is like American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance? Stuff I never thought I would watch. BUT Jeff insisted it was a great show, and with such limitations, me and Jeff have been HOOKED. Is it Tuesday yet?



Um, Hello? Thom Yorke?


After walking in and out of my apartment many times, I have always eyed the building next door. Not just because it's so much cuter then mine, but because it's a graphic design/marketing/advertising agency. So A few weeks ago I walked myself over there, knocked on the door, and asked for an internship. They gave me their card and though email, we set up a date to have an interview. TIGHT.



In order to prepare, I made this. I also made it because my brother, Bill, Is in the Gulf of Mexico, testing water. 

Brother Bill <3 H20. 



And I <3/ Am Daniel Day Lewis



In the meantime I had another interview set up a few days earlier, and it was Shady. It was in chinatown and I had to go through a door that said the company name, and above it said ~Psychic~. UHH do I risk my life? Could this end terribly? Certainly. I peeked though and it didn't smell like death, and I didn't see any blood stains on the carpet, so I said "Annie it's okay". I had to type my name using an old typewriter that they use in their "anti-blog." It was very hard to properly type since it was up so high, and I'm definitely not the tallest. Everyone there could certainly reach it, for they were older and taller than myself. 



My meeting next door went much better. Inside was beautiful, especially compared to the other place. I picture myself in the SwissMiss studio, because I admire her and love her blog. Anyway, these guys will be my new San Francisco Brothers and I will learn lots of cool things from them, including digital work.


Oh and I found a new favorite coffee shop. I have yet to hear Reggae, they stay open til 2, the bathrooms are really clean, and they have a fireplace..oh and if you're into it. A full bar. Although it smells like burnt espresso, everything else is good. Gina we will visit this place.



That's right, Gina is coming up tomorrow!! 


Annd Juan moves up on the 9th!

This is a good blog! I like it and I am at work so I can't think of all the right things to say. I like the Thom Yorke comment, even though it doesn't remind me of him. Annddd plenty of other stuff I want to go home now.
