your spit was like a macchiato for the arm

hey dyyyudes -

i've had a week and a half that's been all over the place:

• last week, i worked from nearly 7am - 10pm every day to find work. ridiculous. riding my bike in heels, constant online applications and in-house interviews. and it's paid off. see below...
• i got hired at momi toby's cafe - the owner went to ut and knows magnolia cafe, etc. pretty sure that's how i landed the job. the place is super laid back and i'm definitely making a bit more money than i anticipated
• SUPER COOL AND I AM SUPER EXCITED: yesterday i received a call from teatro zinzanni, a premiere cabaret / cirque de sole theatre company based in san francisco and seattle. they asked me to do all their transcribing in prep for their opening shows next weekend. so next week i will be surrounded by gymnasts, clowns and corsets - so very hoping this gig leads to something long-term - but either way, next week has the potential to be totally awesome.
  
• not-job-news: i INTENTIONALLY met with robby last night. emailed him last week and we ate dinner last night. he's still very much the same, but i think he may have been shocked by some of the things that i had to say - hahha - whoops. either way, it was really good to see him. i mean seriously we were friends for a super long time. hopefully, we'll be able to hang out a bit more. but meeting with him was huge for me: not due to nervousness or some old school romantic ache for him or some crap, but because i finally faced my fears, acted like an adult and recognized that that period of my life really IS over now
  

in not so totally awesome news, daddy was sent to the hospital last sunday for complications with his heart. he had a ton of fluid in his heart and lungs, so they gave him lasix (spelling?) and kept him in the hospital for a few days. he was released yesterday and is doing really well. he meets with his personal physicians this week. i will keep you updated...

i hope all is well on your end, everyone. i miss and love you a whole lot....

soon,

jen
