Getting ready for the weekend....

So I went in for my regular volunteer day at The Phillips Collection this morning. I haven't been to the Phillips in over 2 months. Its just been difficult to deal with buying the condo, moving, decorating, etc., and volunteering at the same time. There are several exhibits going on simultaneously for the summer. My favorite one is "The Migration Series" by Jacob Lawrence, which is comprised of 60 panels that depict the African-American migration to the North at the beginning of the 20th century. The collection is split in 2, with MOMA owning the even number panels, and the Phillips owning the odd numbers. Here are some links to the exhibition:

Cecilia and I had a "lunch meeting" (I love those!) to discuss what is going on this fall. I'm now going to beworking on of Gay/Lesbian (okay and the Bisexuals too) marketing, and will help with the Facebook page. So of course I had to join Facebook first - an hour later, I had a page done and several friends (and of course no work actually done). I feel very 2008! So if you're on Facebook look me up!

I have quite a to-do list this weekend. Elsa is staying with me tonight through Sunday, so I am putting house painting off until Sunday afternoon. I still have the 24 yards of fabric to stitchwitch, so that is tomorrow's task. I took some of the fabric to work with me this week, but both nights my layovers were cut short due to mechanical problems, so I only had time to sleep. After making the curtain panels and painting, I have shelving to put up. I figure I have enough to do to keep me busy all week!

It has finally become apparent to me that I am ready to change professions. I realized this when a) I found myself actually hating to be at work on Tuesday, and b) almost yelled at a crying four year old who was upset that she wasn't seated next to her mother. It has come to the point that the negatives of the job and industry are outweighing the positives. Lets face it, the airline industry isn't the best place to be right now, and there is no sign that anything will improve in the forseeable future. I am still years away from holding an international schedule, and lets face it, even though I get to go to some nice cities in the US, its not like I actually do anything but sit in the hotel room and sleep. On the positive note, I am employed and so can spend time figuring out what I want to do when I grow up. Any ideas from the audience??
