| \so to cj called and said i'm off wanna hang out..and i said boo i have to work, but then i went to adobe v, and saw that she had scheduled 6 people (which might not seem like a lot but these people are money hungry and capable) so i called my boss and she said..ok you dont' have to come in if you don't want to! amazing. the bonus is our old exchange student from south africa that lived with us twice when i was a little girl is visiting tonight! so dinner at gristmill then out somewhere with ceej. fun night i'm excited! that's all really. we had a successful but rainy cousin's weekend, with lots of rummikub and card games and even a night of karaoke! better than being home having to work and it raining! call me or write me..i'm gonna get better at blogging!

| i just realized i never updated on here that i moved to new braunfels and not austin! i think it might be confusing to some. i'm living with my aunt tracy and her three kids. she's recently divorced and it's been fun to co-parent in a way that i am there to have fun and work out with the kids and hang out and they have someone older to talk to or get help from or whatever. i'm really enjoying living there. i'm also working two jobs, am in week three of working out regularly and am getting to spend time with my old friends. it's nice. i'm watching the spurs be horrible right now in game 5 int he playoffs with the phoenix suns, and im' annoyed. other than that things are good. write me when you can and check my myspace as well. my email address for that one is devowens@gmail.com. hope all is well for you guys!

| ok i'm frustrated, i'm ready to move to austin and be close to my family, my dr's and my friends that i miss a lot and i feel like it just isn't the right time to move from here.. i'm liking my starbucks crew and the friends i have from chuys, and i really love my apartment, and i have too much junk to move!! so the physical part i'm just not excited about, but i know once i get there i'll be great! i'm thinking that when my lease is up in april, i'll move in with my friend taye until july and then move then..i know it's super hot then, but it'll be good to stay a bit longer, and split bills with someone that actually pays them and can take care of herself, and then also just to split bills cuz i think i'm going to live alone in austin. i guess everyone should do that every once in awhile, but booo. second, my voice has been hoarse for almost three weeks now, and i'm getting nervous, cuz i'm singing in one of my old roomie's weddings in a week! my dad's friend is a ent dr. and he perscribed these pills that i take for a week that should reduce swelling! it's only been one day and i'm halfway thru takin all the pills you take on day one, but i am getting my voice back a little! so that's good!!! just kinda weirded me out to not be able to hit notes?! i only have a tenor range and that is something i'm just not used to, folks.. so what's going on with everyone, anyone have a good superbowl story? hit me up! devon | | |
| so yeah my band got booked back out at sullivan's for in two weeks (sept 23rd), also nov. 9th, and new years eve! that gig pays a bundle! i'm stoked..but i dont' really like this guy that is in charge..i'm just happy for the opportunity to sing and record but is that worth sticking around for..finding the right gig is never easy and i'm kinda just tryin to be excited and content with finding ANY gig! he's still looking for a new female frontwoman..since i was hired on to be back up and i don't kwow what else to do to prove i am capable of being the main girl..maybe i'm not, so who knows..help! any ideas?! i got my job back at chuy's. i was supposed to go yesterday to do paperwork, but my other boss told me i would have to wait a week..REDICULOUS! i need flow, so i think i'm going to call in the am and ask if i can come in to do paperwork then pick up until he's ready to get me on teh schedule! otherthanthat..i love starbucks...one of my fav co-workers had his last day yesterday, we're all going out tonight to celebrate, but i'm super sad..he's goin back to school in england! for those of you who dont' know, which should be all of you cuz i never xanga..i'm bad......adam (the co worker) and i have had a close bond since i started, because on my third or so day of working there, i spilt an entire pitcher of 190 degree water on his little foot..second degree burns..and he does'nt' hate me! anyway he's so witty and we just laugh a lot..sad times..we decided we're going to email and perhaps write a letter or two! i'm excited..correspondence is fun! i just had my one month anniversary with starbucks on 9/11 (weird i know) and i'm excited..i love that family..they all genuinly care about me and each other! it's fun.. hope all is well for all of you..let me know..i'm going to BLOG more often! love love Dev | | |
