I have a crippling weakness for:

  • Alanis Morissette.
  • Wine shopping in World Market.
  • Chelsea Lately.
  • Mr. Carter's laugh
  • Confetti.
  • Thrift Stores.
  • Bob and Melinda Blanchard's unusual life.
  • Dogs. (especially my dollface, Ziggy)
  • Pickled Okra.
  • Live Music.

love,

At this point....
There is no reason for me to marinate myself in the negative of how I am feeling about my procrastinating ways. I have a haircolor project that is due in the morning. Well, two of the four sections are due anyway.


This is the "finale for negative" from me on the project still not being finished at midnight:

My stress is driving me to grey hair.




OH SILLY, you know I have a positive or three to add to this....

This project is all about haircoloring. I should be able to fix that grey if it happens.



I suckered Victoria into coming over to visit me and lend a helping hand with this project.

SCORE! I haven't seen her way too long so that was of course, a plus!



I'm doing all this last minute madness upstairs so if I lean towards insanity I glance up at the

huge "KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON" sign and instantly smile.




I would say goodnight but I have this strange feeling that I might be back to this "magazine" of mine to take a few more breaks in between grey swatch, white swatch, medium swatch and so on....



Wish me Luck, Duck!

I started my "pez" obsession/collecting just recently. I hope to have enough in my possession before Christmas to decorate a tree full of Pez dispensers. In case you were wondering, I'm only at four right now. If you get the urge to help my collection grow I would greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness. I would even give you the pez candy to keep for yourself. I'm just saying....


Hello Kitty ( check )


Eeyore ( check )


Valentine Heart ( check )


Dalmatian ( check )




My mad man hunt right now is for the little monkey pictured above... I hear it is the most rare.

Yay, for our new decor!
This fantab poster came in.... It seems to have a strangely calming effect on me.
So we headed to Monkey town and found the perfect frame at The Target and it now hangs in what we think is the perfect spot.

David and I went to the beach Saturday and stayed the night. We helped Mel celebrate his dirty thirty. Fun pictures will be shared soon so don't you worry! My point of telling you this is......... I left Ziggy with my parents and didn't pick her up until TODAY! Do the math... I was having major "Ziggy Ziggy Oh No" withdrawals! She went nutso when she saw me! That sweet child was crying she was so excited when I pulled in the driveway! As for me, I was pretty flippin' stoked myself to finally get back to her! Jay-Lee and I went to CVS this afternoon to get her a reward.... aka chocolate, M&M's being her pick. She looked at me as we were getting out and prepared to walk in and asked in a very serious tone "Why can't they just let dogs go in CVS? I know Ziggy would behave and I know you would take her in." Jay-Lee has a tiny little mind that fascinates me daily. She thinks a lot like me.... and often! She it too ( !!!!!!!!!! ) cute.

I want to play my harmonica and bongos in the Caribbean, la la la la la la la!


(now is a perfect time for the long harmonica and bongos solo)


If you never have, you should. There is something sexy about this particular Saturday!

The picture was stolen from David, without permission. So what....he's missing out.. I mean, napping.

Modest Mouse - Gravity Rides Everything.
Perfect way for me to start off my day!



I think you want to hear more...you need to hear more..... Do me a favor- download yourself some of these great tunes today. You need them in your life, perhaps?!! And if you are feeling like you could conquer the world today then BURN YOU A CD (after paying the musicians for their talent via itunes or something similar) enjoy the new tunes in your vehicle, windows down, and take a journey down a rode you have never been on before. My bet is you see something fascinating on that road that you have never been down. I would even bet you see and feel something beautiful at some point on the "new" road. Apply that to the way you live your life....



Such as:

Jimmy Cliff - The Harder They Come.

The XX - Stars

The Black Crowes - Thorn in My Pride

Toots & Maytals - Pressure Drop

Jewel - Hands

Umphrey's McGee - End of the Road

Phish - Fee

Dave Matthew Band - The Idea of You

Kings of Leon - Revelry

Kenny Chesney - Sherry's Living in Paradise

Van Morrison - Ballerina

Scissor Sisters - Take Your Mama

Widespread Panic - Don't Wanna Lose You

Pretty Lights - Finally Moving





Okay, I'll stop now. Surely you will love a few, need a few, play a few on repeat today, or hey, maybe all of them will strike your fancy at just the right time!! Happy Week-end! I'm getting a shower and heading to Florida to help celebrate Mel's birthday! I think a mimosa would help with motivation this morning.... gah-lee! At least I'm awake.. unlike some cutie I know!

Supper Club. FEB. 17, 2010.

Krista, Kimmie, Ben, Mel, David and myself- enjoyed it!

Just a sneak peak... the meal was to DIE for!

I didn't take lots of little photos to show off unfortuntely... the wii bowling game got intense on the pro level line so I forgot!
