Math and Sleep

It's 1:22 a.m. and I should be in bed, but I hate going to bed. It means disturbing dreams and having to find motivation in the morning. I'm still looking for it, but it's proving to be an elusive bugger.

I got a job.

I'm a part time office assistant working for a man who works from home who sells ink cartridges for a fraction of the price (here is his site, WholesaleToners.com . He's getting a new one and I'm helping with a new logo.)

I've had it for a week but didn't really want to tell anyone until I made sure I actually had the job. (Remember this story?). So of course I feel super blessed, and the guy I work for is really great.

One of my favorite teachers/people of all time, Caryn Esplin, invited me to go to Photoshop World with her and some students this September in Vegas. This was my reply to her:

Sis Esplin,

Photoshop world, huh? Do you realize what happened by you just mentioning the mere fact that I should go hang out in Vegas with one of my favorite people (you, not an Elvis impersonator) at a convention that is the equivalent of Hogwarts for a wizard? This is what happened:

1. I got really excited.

2. Then I did a little mathematical equation in my head.

     If a+b=c, then (a)me going to photoshop world + (b)you also being there = (c)me wanting to purchase CS5, more lenses, an external flash and a bodaciously big beautiful Mac. But we can't forget theorem e.

     Theorem e states that "if one has been graduated from college for over a year and finally just got a part time job as an office assistant making $8 dollars an hour all the while trying to pay off student debts, then this person has little money."

     We can then safely assume that a multiplied by c divided by b and squared by theorem e equals the the exponential circumference of an elephant's trunk.

     I think what the math book was trying to say is, "Man, I wish it could somehow all add up to a logical explanation and that theorem e wasn't a variable. We can only hope that *theorem x might become a variable of this hair brained equation." 

    *Note: Theorem X states that one with little money is miraculously granted a large sum of money due to a leprechaun, a really big raise or a scholarship for having tendencies to fall asleep everywhere."

3. I'm still trying to recover from the mathematical equation I did in my head.

But you know what? I'll think about it. And pray for Theorem X. 

And that's life in a pineapple shell right now.
