So I've been here for nine days. It's been awesome, meeting people... getting freebies, lovely and almost abnormally warm (ish) weather. But one thing that I just can't seem to stop thinking about is the fact that as of next week Friday I have nowhere to stay. Aspen is full, well just about... the rest of the available places rent for roughly $8000 a month. That's like oh sure please pass on your bank details and I'll sort you out as soon as I can- NOT! And all of us are desperate to live here and not down valley... reasons:
1. The commuting is a bitch. Early mornings, late nights and that's just getting to work. Imagine a big snowstorm. Imagine going out in Aspen. It's painful.
2. It costs money, duh. But between 7am and 16:30 it's free. I finish work at 20:00, go figure.
3. It all happens in Aspen, all four skiing mountains are in close proximity...

I'm whining I know, but this is me blog. I know beggers can't be choosers, but if anyone thinks I'm a good person send some good housing energies my way- PLEASE.

So to the point of this post. It's been a shit day, started work at 9 been working ever since. Unpacking boxes and putting all the goods in a store that is full aint fun. So that's been my day, and I was secretely hoping it would end soon so I can start tomorrow fresh. Well enter Ms Jodie Foster and my day gets a little brighter. She is one of the nicest celebs I've met and seen in Aspen to date. So thank you for bringing some light to the day Ms Foster. YAY for first celeb spotting. As we build up to Christmas I bet there'll be more, so stay tuned. Ok now that my moaning moment is over I hope y'all are well. Hello Ms Jen Thorpe. Good to hear from you friend, work hard k and keep in touch.
