Humpday

Festival Throwdown

1st floor, baby. Of the parking garage that is. I suppose the parking gods heard my complaining yesterday and sent me an IOU. I got a parking spot on the first floor of the parking garage, so there was no need for a daily reminder this time. Thank you parking gods. I owe you one next time.

Another cubicle-endearing day was today. I sat in my cubicle for eight straight hours staring at the screen. That can't be healthy. I ended up eating lunch at my desk so I could simply look at crafts on Pinterest for an hour. I'm a girl...it's fine. I am actually not one for Pinterest. I have an account, of course, but I have never spent more than 5 hours on the site total. Since I am using this social media outlet for the museum, I decided to wonder through some craft ideas. Let me tell you how many crafts I saw that I wanted to do right then and there at my cubicle -TOO MANY! I love crafting in the first place. I especially like refurnishing tables, shelves, bookcases and other crafts that require some elbow grease. Because I will be looking for somewhere to live in the near future, what better place to get ideas than Pinterest?

Speaking of Pinterest....what a great segue to mention my completed Pinterest project. Check out the High's Pinterest page and see the two new boards I added! I was going to push this projet until later in the week, but I decided I might as well make myself useful if I was going to be on Pinterest already. So yay for completing another project!

I am also wrapping up my research project on festivals in Georgia and nearby "drive cities." I stated in a previous post I would mention any cool festivals coming up, so here it is as promised:

• June 23 Atlanta Summer Beer Fest
• June 30 The Revival of Vintage
• July 14 Atlanta Street Food Festival
• July 19 -22 Atlanta Summer Arts Festival
• Sept 21 -22 Music Midtown

Check out all of these festivals and think of stopping by. I am sure they all will be a great time. I am personally going to the first two for sure! I am so excited and I will more than likely head out to the other events as well. It's the summertime (as today was the summer solstice) and we need to be outside enjoying the sunshine! There is no better way than with some handmade jewelry, a candy apple and your sunglasses on.

To end my day I received great news that one of my sorority sisters, Sararose, was offered a teaching job in Macon. I ended the night by celebrating with her and her family. I am so excited for her and the new changes this will bring. She is going to be a special education teacher and I know she will excel at it, without a doubt. Love you SR and congrats!
