M'fuckin Monday!!!
Normally I have music or movies to talk about here and by "talk about", I mean list or recommend in an extremely casual manner. But today I have far better news!!!!
Avett Christopher Sutton
Our friends Chris & Kelly had their first baby around 3 in the afternoon 11.14.11. Her due date was the 10th, but he decided to keep up the suspense and stay in the belly for a few more days, so she and I had coffee and chatted instead :) Its pretty amazing, they chose to wait and let the babies sex be a surprise and that isn't too common these days. Kind of rad! Greg and I went over on Saturday night to have dinner with them, see the babies room & watch the fight. All things went amazingly and then the next day Kelly said she was having contractions every 10 minutes or so from 3pm on... then a day later Greg gets the text:
"Baby Button is here!!! Baby Button is here!!!"
I'm stoked to go meet him, they come home from the hosp Wed and I'm hoping that I'll have the lil amigurumi made for him :D (fingers crossed)!

No Reason You Should Forget The Date!
So Gregs old roommate, Courtney, got married Friday. Spent most of the day working on photos and not getting ready, which is what a good majority of the day should have been. I ended up doing my hair over 3 times before giving up (and that was in the car on the way to Ventura) and we made it there 5 minutes late but ended up being on time because they started later *whew* anyhow, it was fun. Got to meet some of Gregs friends and the groom, then a former (possibly renewed) & current contractor Gregs working with. So I guess it was a fancy business date almost :) with awesome food & a slow dance.
We finished the night giving hugs to the bride and groom and grabbing a red velvet cupcake topped with cream cheese icing (shown in picture, minus icing that I devoured immediately). Then left and drove home in the pouring rain, crawled in bed & passed out.

Quote of the day.
"We've been waiting 3 years for the perfect person to give this to." bf's Pops
They have me an amazing old school looking leather jacket. It has fringe and crazy business on it, but fits like a glove and has never been worn. After some tailoring, I'll have an amazing jacket for rides!

Thoughtful Thursday!
So, I put in a few applications on Tuesday (Gap, Sephora, UO & Aeire). Sephora told me to be back for the group interview on Wed, Aeire called & scheduled me for a group interview the 8th & UO said "come back any day before noon and have an on the spot interview." I figure get UO done the same day as Sephora and be done with em but my morning starts off not so well and for a minute I debate it only to come to my senses, get dressed and go to my "interview" at 11am, lunch & second interview at 3.
- "Hi, I'm here for an interview.." "Hi! Do I know you, you look familiar.. is your last name Locke?" lots of lols and small talk "Do you have retail experience & have you filled out a questionnaire?" Hands me a paper to go home & do an online questionnaire then she'll be informed & call for an interview.
- Lunch
- Get dapper & head out to a dreaded group interview that goes fairly well for about 80 minutes. Said they'll make the calls and place demos on Friday.
- Home, eat, sleep, wake up (to Thursday) & head out to have coffee & work on edits
- Edit, do my questionnaire, talk to bf & mom, leave around 4...
- Have an awesome "Hello Reggie :)" note taped to the truck, a la Dylan
- Phone rings.. "Reggie? Hi, we met yesterday! I'm calling to offer you a job at UO, orientation Sunday.."
Well, as I told my bf, I would get him drunk on root beer if I got a job. Went to the store and bought 2 cases of A&W, then headed home! Told him the news, hung out with the guys in the garage for a bit before eating and making "dinner". It was a good day..

Happy Movember!!!!
Does it get better than a month changing its name to not only spawn beautiful facial hair amongst men worldwide but also helps raise awareness for male health, specifically different cancers affecting men. I don't think it does, SO take some time and get familiar with Movember, facebook page & some videos.
