OK, I laughed!

Summer Skin

Goings on: It's been reaaaaally hot in Los Angeles this last week. Would have been cool, because work was slow and I had a couple days off but I've been SO SICK :( well I did spent a little time outside and I got some new flip flops! 

I lusted over a very expensive pair of sandals like this yeaaaars ago. So I saw them and kind of had to have them. Less than $10 and super comfy! Funky tan lines are coming, sure, but they didn't color my feets brown after a little pool time :) I should pick up a back up pair...

Kind of having a quarter life crisis. Trying to figure out me, life, relationships, etc. I wish people would be more open and honest. I think life is short and there's no time to love everything around you. I am having a lot of positive new people in my life, and that makes me happy. 

And today RX Bandits released their (final!) summer tour dates. Bummer but excited to travel and enjoy with friends. Also excited to see Death Cab for Cutie, here and in SF :) I'll be up north quite a few times this summer for shows and a certain ladies shower and wedding (!!!!) I couldn't be more excited for the summer. 

Why am I up? Can you believe they called me up for jury duty tomorrow? BOOO! 

(BTW, I MADE/LISTED/SOLD A PAIR OF EARRINGS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A 24 HOUR SPAN..... FEELING KIND OF EXCITED ABOUT CREATING:)

Digging this tumblr.... especially since all of my cousins are on facebook and have been uploading old pictures from when we were kids. I love having such a huge family and I love that my dad was so cool when we were young :) my dad was a total hipster who dressed cool and had all kinds of awesome jobs growing up. I am very lucky to have such a cool guy in my life.

Sun sun sun

I'm so glad it's going to be hot all weekend. I need to go to the beach, lay by a pool, have an icy drink, and play some music really loud. (Oh, I also have loads of new jewelry to photograph!) HAPPY WEEKEND :) 


What songs remind you of summer and sun?

Arthur!

The company I work for made the jewelry that Jen Garner wears in Arthur! Love her and Russel Brand, I am super excited to see it. Now if only there was a cute boy to see it with! ;)

3/11

This year is special. 2011! Wowza. Sounds like the future right? :) well, in my nerdy music world, it's a special date... it's been a special date for 31 days. The first day, I got on a plane with my best friend and we flew east... we landed in Florida and had breakfast right after sunrise in South Beach. went back to the hotel, met up with Sandra and her cousins, and began the trip, the month of a lifetime. 3-3-11 we set sail from Miami to Turks and Caicos on a 311 cruise. I'm still recovering. It was so amazing, so special, so perfect. I cant describe. I want to try and this is why I gave myself so much time, but I can't explain it. I'm going to have to show you. It was amazing to be surrounded by so many friends, to have so much free time in such close proximity with my girls, my friends. Everyone was so relaxed and happy, it was a complete blissful state. I laughed all day all night until my belly hurt. I fell so much more in love with all my friends. (and at the same time, my heart hurt missing my little sister so much!! this summer we'll make up for it.  I love you, Lisa!)

I give up trying to be friends with blogspot, i know the alignment is all fucked up. I can't fight with it anymore! click on any picture you want to see bigger :) Made them small so they'd load more friendly....
