Thanks to my Blingo Friend "ueblay", I got another $10 iTunes gift certificate today! Yayyyyy! So, if you are "ueblay", let me know who you are!

Now, everybody else sign up to be my Blingo Friend, use it and win me an iPod nano!

I guess I'm back in an insomnia phase. It took me hours to go to sleep last night and yet here I am—wide awake at 7:00 am. *sigh* I hope I can get a nap in today or get to sleep early tonight or I'm not going to do well at work on Monday.

It snowed a little last night. Tomorrow is the first day of Spring. I really, really, really wish the weather would warm up for good. The teaser of warm weather we had a couple of weeks back sucked. Perfect weather. I loved it. Now this. Oh, well.

Well, I've got Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and The Return of Spinal Tap to watch from Netflix today. I think I'll set my laptop up back in the craft room and watch while I clean. That room is a disaster area. I'm going to turn it into my home office, so I won't get distracted (as much) when I get some freelance work. I debated about turning the bunny room into my office, but they have too much hair and dander flying around in there to be good for my computer stuff.

Oh, one more thing: Check out this funny shirt at T-Shirt Hell.

Tom is my only friend, too. LOL

I've had nothing to say here lately. As a matter of fact, I'm totally bored with the Internet, too. I don't know why. I look at my link list, hit a couple of sites, then I'm done.

I do have a humorous story from work.

One of our clients is a vacuum shop owner who is a total practical joker. When his sales rep brought me his proof on Wednesday, it said my ad was crap and it totally needed to be redone. I panicked because there was no notes as to what he didn't like, what needed to be changed, etc. As I'm having total heart failure, she pulls the "Real Proof" out from behind her back and I started cracking up! He loved the ad! I had totally forgot who I was dealing with or I would've seen through the "fake proof" thing. Oh, well. I really needed a good laugh.

I'm getting several responses from clients claiming to love my work. I guess I really am good at this! I've gotten permission from Head of Graphics to put some ads in my portfolio, so as soon as that gets up, I'll point you guys to it. I'm definitely underpaid for what I bring to the table. There were hints from him and the owner that maybe I won't have to wait the whole 6 months for a raise. We'll see. So, I guess I'm off to bed so I can work on getting my portfolio online tomorrow. I really need to $$$ coming in.

I'm wide awake at 4:30 am, so here are some cool quotes I found over at ThinkExist.com:
