Dear Scale

Dear Scale,
I’ve been eating pretty healthy the last couple weeks. And working out. Really, I’ve been running- and even though when I say “running” I mean walking/jogging, I think it should could for something. Which is why it’s really annoying to step on you and see that you’ve gone up a pound or two.
YOU”RE GOING [...]
Gun Control
Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: October 29, 2008
I’m all for freedom. But, last night I was watching the news and they did a section about how the number of people purchasing guns is rising. Apparently, people are afraid that Obama will win the election and take away people’s right to have guns. The type of gun that has seen the most increase? [...]
Moving Backwards?

Sometimes I feel like my life is moving backwards. Two and a half years ago I was living in Los Angeles (okay, the Valley), and had a full-time grown up job. I was working on a film production and doing talent management, overall working with some pretty cool people. Sure, production made me want to [...]

Well, it’s official. I accepted the position with Sundance Film Festival and registered for the MiLB job fair this morning. I, Brittney, am on the route to grown-up employment again.
More importantly, it means I better start preparing for some of this. I posted a listing on CraigsList for housing, and have started looking into some [...]
A Little Piece of the Employment Puzzle
Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: October 17, 2008
I’m getting there… to the world of employment. My first piece of employment is this week. I’m working with the Avon Beauty Breakthrough Tour while they are in Tulsa. It’s only 5 days, but should put about $450 in my pocket. And all I have to do is put some samples in bags.
The second piece [...]
Before the Sun Rises
Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: October 15, 2008
The last two mornings I have had to work a earlier than normal, therefore making me wake up earlier. The hour or so doesn’t seem like it should be a big difference. I’ve even gone to bed a little earlier than usual. But the main difference is that it has been dark outside the last [...]

With the Opera’s first production behind us, and the next show not until February, we’ve started working on next season. This means I get to do research all day. And I was really close to getting done with what I needed to today, but I had to leave the office by 4:30. Why? Because the [...]
Enjoy The Show

On Sunday afternoon, the Opera finished it’s first production. Ans while most of me knows I was working an opera, a teeny part of me thinks I may have got caught in some alternate cruise ship universe. For two years I worked for Holland America Line. And while it allowed me to go to alot of [...]
Congratulations Connecticut

** WARNING: The following post is part of my political babbling.
Congratulations Connecticut, for becoming the third state to approve gay marriage.
I really don’t understand why people fight over gay marriage. I can think of only two potential reasons to disagree with gay marriage: Religion and Biology.
The biology people argue that marriage should be limited to [...]

I must’ve killed their leader, and now they are all out to get me. Damn mosquitos.
I get the occasional mosquito bite. I got two over the weekend from sitting outside until the wee morning hours. That’s fine with me. Then Tuesday night rolled around, and I hear one buzzing about in my bathroom. I saw him [...]
