I asked the Sun for a sunburn and I got one!  And I mean the kind of burn that screams "you should have known better!" every time you pull up your pants or sling your purse over your shoulder.  It's glorious ( Read more... )

I had a Dave Matthews sighting last night on the street downtown.  We had a moment and he smiled at me.  I did not, however, have the wherewithall to wink, nod, or otherwise tip him off to how ultra cool I am.  A sorta half mona lisa smile was all I could come up with on short notice.

I am absurdly excited for our upcoming - hold on to your hats - 3 ( Read more... )

Waiting for my computer to reformat.  70%... The terrible, ominous blue screen with the yellow progress bar at the bottom, crawling, inching... 71%... 72%...  I can't turn back now.

I have my coffee, though, which makes me happy.  And my house is clean (-er than it was yesterday morning, at least).  I'm trying to sell my settee so I can get from my ( Read more... )

I realized I write about the sun in almost every post.  This is what happens when you live in Seattle.  And when you worship the Sun.  Which is what happens when you live in Seattle.

I got a pattern and some fabric for a skirt.  This summer might be the Summer of the Skirt in juli-land.  I've been living in skirts all winter so I could rock my boots ( Read more... )

 I missed 3 free or reduced ice cream days just this week.  Can you believe it?  I almost can't.

My laptop is bust.  For now.  Now only my friend Kerwin can save it.

My bday was a pretty happy one because the sun came out and people did whatever I wanted (except for the tattoo guy who did not want to do exactly what I wanted, but, hey--maybe the ( Read more... )

It's 4:00 and I just made the most Kick-Ass chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter icing.  And I'm still wearing my pajamas!  Hooray!

And, yes, it snowed yesterday.  Snow.  Freezing, frozen, snow.

Did I miss the orange & blue game?  Oh, well, it's ok because I had the most lovely weekend, filled with many of my favorite things: sunshine, my scootie, brunch, coffee, ice cream, shopping, chez boom (sorta), milkshakes, Sopranos, pasta, snuggling!  I did not get to talk to Elliot, though.  That guy is always busy.

It's one of those AMAZING Seattle days!  Sun-shiny-er than a day has a right to be.  And warm.  Warm!  WARM!  My scootie and I are so happy!!

Is it bad that all I want to do is drink spriz and Strawberry Blond on my stoop?  Listen to music, play music, maybe eat some guac.  Expose my shoulders to the great outdoors.  It's been a while, guys...

My dad taught me to revere mahogany.  He taught me to drive, to fear my mom, and to enjoy music.  He taught me to just do something as soon as it comes up so you don't have to worry about it later.  If not for him, I wouldn't appreciate british humor or know how to row a canoe.  I learned from him that if you can't afford it or find it, you can ( Read more... )
