The Week To Date
Well theres been a lot of things to write about but finding the time just doesnt seem to work.
To cover the basics, its been nice having Josh down this week. I had Monday off and we didnt leave the apartment.
To recap the basics, Friday evening he arrived and we enjoyed our togetherness. Saturday we went to the farmers markets both in Noe Valley and Embarcadero. The one at Embarcadero was much better. I bought some raspberry vinegar which is delicious.
Saturday afternoon, I went with Josh to Oakland to look for massage tables. Unfortunately he didnt find anything that was worth his time and we left there a bit disappointed. It seemed like everything was just short of what he wanted and it almost seems impossible to get something exactly what he wants. My suggestion is to call these companies to see if perhaps they can make a few small alterations to their designs to suit his needs.
Saturday night, Josh and Steve went grocery shopping. Josh has been nice enough to cook just about every evening so far. With working all day, I am VERY appreciative about that.
So dinners included, but not limited to, Celery Soup which I have been craving (Im not sure why), and Chicken French last night which was absolutely delicious. Theres been other dishes that I cant remember but those have been my favorites so far.
Movies have included, The Incredibles (my second time watching it on DVD), Bourne Identity, and Bourne Supremecy. All good movies. Im impartial though to The Incredibles. Hopefully tonight, Invader Zim will be here and we can watch that. The original copy that came from Netflix was broken so I reported it and they quickly sent out a new copy.
In other news, Ive been looking into unemployment and school a bit more. Its really confusing on what to do when you are eligible for unemployment in two states. If I take NY unemployment, I take about $38 less a week but can also pick up CA benefits later on if I need them. If I take CA unemployment, I lose the NY benefit because it will have been too long. Both make it tough to go to school because they both want it in the field of work youre in. I really want to go back for photography.
Anyway, with photography in mind, Josh has been working on his resume and asked me to help create a new signature mark for it. I came up with an idea and made it happen. Wheather he uses it or not (which I think he might at least use the concept), it still gives me experience with my photoshop skills. This is what I created from scratch in case youre interested. It started with the taking of 3 basic pictures and you can view the story board (so to speak).
Well Im late for work. Its now 6:37. I have today and tomorrow left and Im so looking forward to getting it over and done with.
Till the next update. Take care.
