Today was my 24th birthday… and while I enjoy all things birthday related, what happened at the end of the night managed to pale in comparison to any birthday, gift, or otherwise. Through a very crafty, tricky serious of events – Nick managed to get me from his house (where we had my birthday party with his family), to a pub downtown with a couple of friends & his brother Chris, and then… while I thought we were walking back to our cars to go off & go home – we were actually headed straight to the little park where he had told me he loved me for the first time. Since it was precisely in the direction of the car I didn’t think anything of it until he got down on one knee…. honestly, even at that moment I didn’t believe it because he’s joked around before…. but then I saw the cameraman (Nick’s friend Rob seemingly popped out of nowhere to videotape the moment)… and then I knew it was the real deal! =) And of course I said YES.

It was everything I had hoped it’d be… I’m an incredibly lucky girl! Oh & the ring is gorgeous!

Things are going well… I love my job – LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. I’m working for a film & production company called Purple Onion… although technically I work on the Civilian Edit side of things. I’m in Operations, which just means I do some secretarial work and some technical work, such as digitizing or transferring from Digi Beta to Beta SP – things like that. As my repertoire grows & I get more familiar with the equipment and the programs I’ll just keep adding things to my job description. The guys (& one lady) are some of the friendliest co-workers I’ve ever come across… they’re the kind of people I would hope to be associated with – hilarious and incredibly talented.

Everyone I tell about my job environment (the yummy free lunches, the fully stocked kitchen & bar, the health/dental benefits, the laid back employees) …well they just sort of look at me like I’m the luckiest person in the world. And I have to admit I sort of feel that way.


In other news – I was recently invited to be an official YouTube/Google partner. What’s that mean? At this point it’s an invite-only gig and I’m not usually pretentious enough to think I’m all that special. So I’m contemplating whether or not to bite. Perhaps I’ll just watch and wait…


I have this week off to finish up my dissertation – something that will be done by next week… so I’m sitting here at Barnes & Noble taking a break from the madness that is my dissertation topic.

Meeting people in person vs. online… also, I’m wondering why we’re all afraid to approach each other.
