fryday

today is friday, which happens to be one of my favorite of the 7. i got paid from my new job finally, which is pretty great. we've been real silly today, partly because tomorrow is niki's birthday. curry took us out to lunch at this chinese buffet nearby, and since getting back at 1...it's been rough. thank god for AIM is what i'm saying. we also spent a good hour laughing about a "pirkol", because we've all decided that that particular pronunciation of "pickle" is hilarious. we proceeded to find other words that that worked on.

i wrote 5 o'clock a letter, letting it know how much i missed him, and how much i'd like to see him again. being friday and all, i'm pretty ready for a visit from 5. and lo and behold, he's coming up over the horizon, to save me!

oh blog new world, with such people in it!

it's me. virginia. i just set this up about 20 minutes ago, and it's like a new toy. so many adjustments, so little time. seems like an excellent idea for a time killer at work. which, by the way, i am now an employee of for 3 whole weeks. i just started as a designer at Creative Co-Op, which is a home decor wholesaler. i will help with the catalog and other marketing projects, which is pretty exciting. it's my first full-time job, you know.

i want to use this blog to put up some artwork that i will work on eventually. i've been turned on to this by jennifer, who works with me and loves illustration.

here are some awesome websites i've just recently tuned into:

nataliedee.com (comics and stuff)
illustrationfriday.com (a weekly illustration entry site)
pbf.com (perry bible fellowship-- very, very funny. and messed up)

stay tuned.
