Is it October Already?

It has been a long time since I blogged last. Since my last (rather angry) post, I have graduated, received my diploma in the mail, spent a week in St. Thomas, 2 weeks in Oklahoma with my BFF and a crazy weekend in Dallas, Texas. November 2-November 17 I will be in London, England! I'm really looking forward to the trip. I have yet to find a job; traveling has made it more difficult (you have to be in one place long enough to apply and interview for a position before you can actually land a job). I keep telling myself "after London". I really will get a job after London.

This week has been relatively uneventful. I sewed three aprons in three days. I could not be more thrilled with how they came out. If my camera wasn't broken I would be uploading pictures. I made one for halloween (probably the apron I am the most excited about). It has glittery ghosts as the main fabric print and a cute but hard to explain trim. The other apron is for an old friend, who is going to die when he sees the apron. It has racing cars as the main print and wrenches/tools for the accent fabric. The last apron I made is a gift to my mom. It's an americana themed apron. I have the cutest buttons to add to the apron. Those have to be hand sewn but otherwise, the aprons are all finished.

I was visit taught today and I think I will like my visiting teachers. They are both endowed, making me feel less like an outcast in my ward. The majority of the girls in my ward are not endowed and young, making me feel like a frumpy old dinosaur. I have a date on Saturday night; cooking in at my place. I know it will be an early night because the guy that I am going on the date with has a high up calling and has meetings that start at 7:00am. I thought I had him figured out but he is feisty. Much feistier than I ever thought he would be capable of. He seems to have it pretty together, but is younger than I am. Turn off. I am thinking I need to start a new blog; just for dating. It could be the material for a book that I will someday publish. There is a book currently on stand that I saw at the airport written by a man glorifying his sleazy sexual encounters and degrading feelings about women. I will write a book quite the opposite of that.
