Things I’ve learned while doing over nights at work…

- when you have over 1000 blogs to read your google reader says 1000+

- When you are on your way home from work and you order a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel from McDonalds and you are their first costumer for the day, it simultaneously gives you a feeling of joy and despair.

- XXI shuts off their air at 11 pm which results in a sweaty Kayleigh by midnight.

- After working all night it gets really hard to push a bed across plush carpet so you can sleep in the closet, one has to resort to sleeping on a mattress in the closet, because he closet is the darkest quietest place in the house.

- There is actually a point where I get slap happy and it usually revolves around a delusional sales associate.

- Gilmore Girls is awesome no matter what kind of sleep schedule I’m on.

- I become a completely selfish person when I do over nights, losing track of my friends and forgetting that emails exist.

- Keys can become camouflaged in surprising places.

- Even though I have gotten 8+ hours of sleep every 24 hours, I'm still really tired all the time.

I win

I started a new job last week and have been working a little more than I'm used to... but that's good. Work is really good.

I've had my fair share of play too, don't worry.

Here is what I've been up to.

I made this scarf for a swap and mailed it off yesterday.... bye bye tree green beauty. It was going to a Canadian so I thought it was still applicable.

I also sent this flowering tree pillow along with the swap package yesterday.

This is the big item I sent to Canada... it is a market bag. It's huge! You could fit all of the days groceries in there and leave plenty of room for some fresh flowers to go on you dining room table. The fabric is from urban outfitters! I love it.

I made this headband in about 2 minutes, probably less. I made it after working 2 days at my new job and realizing I had to step up my trendiness factor...so i started to go the hipster route. My boyfriend thinks I'm ridiculous but I thought it was cute. What do boys now about headbands anyway?
