Becky Allen / Becky Williams Last night I dreamt that I found my long lost friend's mother and was relieved to know that I could contact Becky. I miss her. She moved to St. Croix, has had a very rocky long-term relationship, only sometimes has a phone, and has no clue about the internet. I couldn't contact her when I moved to LA and now she has no way of finding me.

Traffic in LA Can Be So Bad Yesterday it took me 45 minutes to just drive 5 miles. Should've only taken me 15 minutes according to Mapquest.

What to do I had to rethink a lot of things when I lost my job. I tend to procrastinate a lot and I realized I have to somehow stop this bad habit. Everything seems to always pile up: Goals, clothes, dishes, and paperwork. I eventually get to those things, sometimes later rather than sooner. It is sort of like going to the gym, I'll dawdle for a while because I am not looking forward to starting my workout, but when I start, I get into it and feel satisfied when I am done. Maybe I need a self-help book??

My job So I have my job back but with a pay cut. The whole situation has made me quite bitter.
I'm happy that I don't have to look for another job, but upset about having less money. Less money=more struggle. I'm also feeling very underappreciated. This is the thanks I get for doing an excellent job??

Trip Pic Thank you Mr. Bronx Bus Driver for giving me a free pass into the NY Botanical Gardens. I got to explore the nations largest conservatory and see the Japanese autumn garden exhibit in the courtyard.

Sorry for the Delinquency... I have completely neglected my weblog and I feel terrible. I have a few excuses, but I won’t list them. Instead, I will list what has been going on:
-I went to NYC for a week. I saw so much art that I actually go tired of looking at it- any of it. I have to say that my favorite was Kirsten Hassenfeld at Bellwether. -I was hungover almost every morning and I smoked cigarettes almost every night. BAD!!! -I made a good contact while I was there. I actually made the trip to make this contact. -Don’t ask me how or why, but I had a very difficult time coordinating my trip to New York and I started to get scared. Like maybe fate was trying to tell me something, and maybe my plane was going to crash. -I almost didn’t even get to meet my contact but everything fell into place and made all of the hassle worth it. -I definitely had more energy to run around the city and dance all night when I visited 4 years ago. I only danced one night and it took a lot of effort. I could have been because the tech-house music was a bit too on the techy side. -I got food poisoning right before I left for NYC and it took me days to recover. Then it took me days to recover from my trip when I came back. -4 other people got food poisoning too. -I know that I am better now because yesterday I consumed half a bag of pork rinds. Gosh, I am almost embarrassed to admit that I eat the stuff! -When my plane landed in NY, I checked my cell phone messages and found out that I no longer have my job. That put a damper on my trip. -I lost my job due to Mr. H’s daughter wanting to save money and also because she sought revenge on me because I dared to say no to her. Nope, she wouldn’t negotiate with me. I just got a message from her assistant. -I am on sabbatical from the suicide hotline. I have too much to do and now that I lost my job, I have to focus more on my needs. -I’m quite upset to have my financial stability pulled out from under me and I have to now rethink a lot of what is going on in my life. In the meantime, it is back to the “jobbettes” -I have 3 pieces in a show next month titled “Jubilation! Art in our library”. -I FINALLY sent my headshots to the printer and bought a monthly publication called The Agencies. So here is a bit of online reality show…Can Amparo find an agent and land a commercial?? Stay tuned!!
