did nothin!

so i did almost nothing on my list of things to do last weekend. last weekend was tough!
this wknd has started off really well. i went to deity last night, and i will definitely be back. my friend nyjia is definitely a new partner in crime.

i'm trying to make it to galapagos for the springtime floating kabarette. who doesn't like a little burlesque, aerial dancers, and people in wigs to start of the night?

on sunday there's a macaroni and cheese contest in greenpoint. i've gotta give a shoutout to my bloggin friend heather over at new york shitty who will be an official judge. that could be really ... hella dangerous for the waist line. so i will very likely be staying away. but observing from afar, i can't wait to hear who wins. who is the DON of mac and cheese?

spring has almost sprung, y'all. and you know there will be soirees on my roof, tea parties in shara's backyard, and weenie romps through the park.

let me know if you have any suggestions for other places to dance. deity's at the top of my list. i even saw a few people doing a little bboying/bgirling last night, which i was pleasantly surprised to FINALLY see in brooklyn.

i'm in the process of searching for a new roommate, too. i'll let you know who passes the rad enough test to move in.

ciao for now.

i've finally made it inside the ride! i'm working at WNYC as their marketing coordinator. very exciting.

i'm really liking it so far. the building is AMAZING, the people i'm working with are, so far, incredibly talented and hard working. good aesthetics and hard work are my favorite qualities in coworkers and surroudings, and in people in general. they'er also good humored.

things WORK here. meaning that i'm actually really liking working as a marketing rep. and i love this place, meaning i believe wholeheartedly in what i'm preaching. that makes it so much easier to do a good job. hopefully the good feelings will continue after the new wears off!

i've decided we need to live in park slope or brooklyn heights, if we're not to move to manhattan. not immediately, of course, probably not in the next year or so. but after that, when we're both established well. god did right by me having me find my way to WNYC!

there's great stuff around the office, too. soho's just up from here, the village, and the post office is across the street, nick arrojo's studio is 1 block over, there's a chipotle, korean bbq and falafel trucks out front. wachovia is pretty far away, but that won't matter soon.

i've done it! not without some assistance from very wonderful colleagues and people, but i feel like i've arrived (for 25 years old, at least). i expected to hit my stride, and the universe gave me what i was after. even amidst the financial turmoil.

ok - i must get back to the phone calls i was making. but have no fear, i do not believe this is the end of netta producing. i think that is just on hold for now. we shall see what path i choose. the doors have been opened.

deep breaths!

ok brooklyn. i am here.

we are living in greenpoint, and everything in our new apartment is still pretty much a wreck, but god i have never been this floored in my life. we have an adventure every day.

neither of us house secured a job yet, but we're both expecting to in the next week or two.

i miss the people of north carolina. but lord have mercy do i belong here.

david put together a pink bike from target for me all by his self (so proud!!), and i can't wait for his to get here so we can go riding and explore.

i still can't believe we live here, but at the same time i totally believe it because i shouldn't be living anywhere else. what an incredible journey the last week has been.

hey life! here i come!!

wanna see our new apartment?

i can't wait to be king[sland]!!

we dun moved to brooklyn

to greenpoint. kingsland ave. our place is huge. we are beyond stoked.
