Hello Strangers!

So I obviously haven't blogged in awhile. Got a request to do so, so here I am! The job is going good, not exactly what I want to be doing, but its money! Watching Blue Hawaii on TCM right now (LOVE this channel!), so that makes thinking about work tomorrow a LITTLE better. Elvis can cure anything. hehe ;)

So if your on FB (which is probably how you found my blog!) you would have probably seen my inner rock star shoes, aka my space boots! lol
Which leads me tooooo. A girl lead rock band. YES. Thats what I said. =D My friend Ashley is moving back here to Austin in June & I asked her if she was interested in starting one with me! We both write songs, I'm gonna get back into playing the keyboard & she can get down on the Bass & Guitar. There are TONS of people here that we could find to play any additional instruments: lead guitar, drums, etc. So I am SO STOKED for her to get here so we can start! I've been wanting to do something like this for a long time, but didn't really know how to start, but SXSW was such a HUGE inspiration that I couldn't put it off any longer! So I will definitely keep you guys up to date on everything that has to do with that! Ash, if your reading this, I can't wait to START!! We're gonna ROCK this town!

So I've also made some good friends here. My coworker Whitney is AWESOME. Shes also from Tampa, so we naturally have stuff in common on top of our a bit zany, outgoing personalities. haha. Sam RULES, though I don't get to see her as much as I'd like! (We need to change that girl!) Rae is FANTASTIC (get it Rae?) =D though again I don't get to see her as much as I'd like either! She's the cool chick I can talk movies with, which you guys know I love to do! haha. Last but not least, Trish. (who is in the above pic, right before she left for FL) She is moving back to FL with her bf Bill as we speak, which makes me super sad, but I know they'll do great there, & we'll def keep in touch. MISS YOU ALREADY CHICA!! <3

I also recently took a trip home to FL. Flew in & surprised the fam the day before Easter & spent a week there with them which was nice & alot less stressful than the last time I was there at Christmas & we were practically running around the whole time! lol. Amazing weather the whole week & enjoyed the sunny outdoors at Silver Srings, Lowry Park Zoo, & of course, THE BEACH! =D Also, hit up OC & Otooles for some karaoke w/ the friends, of course! Good times! Miss & love you guys!! <3 <3

One last comment for today. Went & saw The Goonies last night at a theater close to us. IT WAS SO AWESOME seeing it on the big screen! The film was still on 35mm, grainy & all! Like sitting watching it right in 1985 when it came out! Love love love.
Also, if theres anything any of you would like me to write about on here, please comment below or comment me on FB! I'm all up for suggestions! I'll try to write more for you guys on here! Work has just taken away my normal daytime blogging schedule, so I'll try to do it at night or on Sunday when I'm watching some awesome TCM movie. HA! Or just send me a question to my Formspring account (link to the right!) & I'll answer your questions!
Have an awesome week!

Love & rockstars,
Steff
