On pilgrim placecards

This is from my good friend Launi.  I only wish I had time to make these before Thanksgiving, maybe next year.  I know they wouldn't take much time, but I'm swimming in research papers right now.  And Blake's parents are visiting this weekend.  And we're speaking in church on Sunday (oh yay!  Another research paper-type thing to do).  I hardly have time to post a fun link on my blog. ;)  But this one was worth it.

On cuteness

I admit it: I'm guilty of loving the cuteness craze. Still, this article was a fun read.

On cake wrecks

I know I've shared this site before, but Cake Wrecks is so awesome.  The Veteran's Day post made me laugh out loud.  Since Blake's not at home to share it with right now, I will share it with my blog reading friends.

Why three posts in one day, you ask?  That's unheard of for me!  Well, I will tell you.  I'm supposed to be working on a paper right now, one that is due tomorrow that I have not started writing yet.  I could call it procrastination, but I prefer to think of this as part of my pre-writing process.

On shrinking red hook

Apparently the blogger is having a hard time uploading pictures right now.  So, that means no logo for you and no post with pics about our new place.  Instead, enjoy this video.  It's about an art installation intended to bring the community of Red Hook together.  Basically, they make the people into barbies and put them in a barbie house to play with.  Should I send my picture in and get a me-doll made?  I think so!

On my own logo/monogram

I've been absent from my blog for a while, because I've been pouting.  I might explain more about that in another post.  But now I'm back and have something I'm really excited about sharing.

Blake made me a logo!  This Friday there is a placement fair happening at school.  I will have the opportunity to meet and interview with different mental health clinics in the area for a trainee position next year.  I am very excited about this and also quite confident that I am awesome and will get placement with ease.  (I'm so arrogant! ;) Why are you people friends with me?)

In preparation for all that, I'm reworking my resume.  I asked Blake if he'd help me with the design, and he offered to make me a logo as well.  We sat down last night and worked it out.  It's pretty fun for me to watch him work and see what he can do. So . . . here it is.

What do you think?
