Lately...

Life lately has been a bit all over the place.

I've been awake before the sun to leave for work a couple times.  It's a lot easier to get out of bed when the golden rays of sunshine bounce around you.   Waking up in darkness reminds me of winter.  I hate that about winter, probably more than cold+snow+frostbite combined.

I got a job working for the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).  I've done some training and worked one shift so far.  The people are great, as are the perks.  I am hoping to see some majorly swoonable leading men - Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, George Clooney, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Ryan Gosling.  Oh, and there will be hundreds of amazing films playing, yes.  ;)

Tonight Steve and I and another fab couple are going to Fake Prom.  This is the first year we've known about it, but sadly the last year they'll be organizing one.  The theme is Enchantment Under the Sea.  I'm sure I'll take a million pictures, don't you worry :)

JoTotes clearly wants all of my money.  They just announced the Betsy bag in teal.

I have this camera bag in brown already and it's a great size for walking around with an SLR, lens, or two and all of your own wallet, keys, gum, etc.  I use it every time I fly on a plane because it fits nicely at my feet.  And no one comes up to you asking "What do you shoot with?" Because they don't assume it's a camera bag.  Which is nice.
(They're not paying me to say any of this, I'm just trying to justify buying it in another colour.)

That's my quick little update on life lately.  Work, sleep, eat, work.
It's a scribble-filled day planner and unending to-do list, but a good time.
Ciao for now.
