Carmen, what are you up to?

I get asked that a lot, and my friend Liz told me my blog has been a big boo lately, so I'm going to answer the question here. Mostly, I'm up to all the same stuff, but with a shift of focus.

I'm doing the trivia. You guys know that...its Monday at 6:30 at Buffalo Wild Wings and Thursday at 8 at Beef O' Brady's. That's going really well, and it helps to keep me busy. And let's face it: I love the attention.

I'm working with Jon. His business is taking off, and he's rising to the challenge beautifully. It turns out, in regards to his business, there is LOTS for me to do, so I do it the best I can. You can see the stuff we've worked on lately at www.joneckard.com. This is where the focus shift comes in...this is getting a lot more focus, which is translating to dollars, which is a good thing. So, yay!

I've got my hands dirty at the Art Museum still. I'm working on a project that I can't share quite yet, but it is huge, and will be smoking hot awesome. And-they're opening the newly renovated auditorium in the Salt Block building, and I can harly breathe, I'm so excited.

Speaking of so excited: People! Where the Wild Things Are is opening on October 16th. And there are previews all over the TV. That means for about a minute of every hour that I watch TV, I'm holding my breath at the beauty of that movie. It brings little tear drops every time I see the preview.

Here is where I ask for your help: If you hear some people talking about how they need a photographer, why don't you tell them about us? We need clients, so it would be a perfect situation!

Also, something that is irritating me: People complain all the time about how we're losing so many jobs in our country. I know. It sucks. But those same people shop at Wal-mart and buy mostly products made in China or Indonesia. If we want to have an economy, and have jobs for Americans, at some point we're going to have to start buying mostly American goods. We are the consumers, and we have the power. Am I wrong here?

In other news...I added my favorite music to my sidebar, so that if you're bored, you can hear some beauty.

Sorry that there are no links. I'm on an older computer right now, that won't let me switch to Compose mode, and I don't want to code a million links in HTML.
