New temporary plans

I am moving to New York in a month to do freelance in the Martha Stewart Living Magazine design department while my friend Linsey is out on maternity leave. I start April 7. I will be there 3 months for sure, maybe a little longer.

That is just an update on my plans.

In honor of that I will post some unflattering pictures from the last time I lived in New York:

This is when we moved all of Holly and Becca's stuff from one apartment to another. My job was sitting on the curb making sure no one stole the stuff. For a few hours. New York City is hot. Everyone was covered in sweat.

These are my awesome tomato plants that were stolen when I moved and the taxi driver wouldn't let me put them in the car so I left them in a garden area of my apartment building for not very long and someone horked them. That was sad. I am still mourning a little.


A couple examples of how wildly curly my hair gets in New York. I have been growing my hair out since I was there last, on the off-chance that I might go back. I didn't especially like my co-workers singing the "Annie" songs every time I went to work.

The sleepover we had the night before I left. We slept on the roof. That is always awesome. I am most excited about getting to see all my New York friends again.

The best accident of my life

I have been trying since the beginning of tabbed internet browsers to find the key command to switch in between tabs. And yesterday, it came, on accident. I'm always using key commands in the wrong programs and sometimes I find awesome things. I seriously want to know if anyone else knew how to do this because if you did, shame on you for not telling me. If you do not, your eyes are about to be opened:

Command (or apple) and the number of the tab you want to use. So simple, yet so hard to figure out. Try it! I am using Firefox, I'm not sure if it works in all browsers.

Also, I just saw Emily Clark on my local news channel talking about the new president of the church, Thomas S. Monson. She was doing an internship in New York at the same time I was. Now I see her on T.V.
