Today Taylor and I bought a new piece of furniture for our place! we FINALLY found an armoire.. thank goodness.. The best part was it was 2 blocks from where we live...but we didn't look at it till 5 pm.. so we had to RUN to U-Haul and grab a dolly from them right before they closed.. we were almost denied.. but Taylor made it happen.. then we WHEELED our new HUGE armoire all the way home.. in the street.. was quite a sight to see!
GO TAYLOR!

Shit Happens.... This water bottle has been sitting in my fridge for weeks and I have been avoiding it. Last night I hear this noise like something exploded in the kitchen..sure enough I look in the fridge and this bottle has frozen up, cracked and shattered all over the inside of my fridge. This is most def a metaphor .. if you avoid things that you know you need to take care of, they will explode and cause more damage then if you would have just taken care of them in the first place! Lesson Learned!

Today I only went in for a half day at work because of the Martin Luther King holiday...which was a surprise and totally awesome because My GF was planning on getting a tattoo that day and originally we were going to go together, but I wasn't going to be able to make it cause of work.... This gift of a half day changed things and NOW I was able to go.
We met for lunch .. then went to the Tattoo Parlor... I was so excited, so scared, and so pumped up on adrenaline. Thank goodness there was wine to calm the nerves. I was still on the fence about getting my tattoo, but only because of the fear of the pain, and the horror of something bad happening like, being allergic to the ink, it getting infected, or God forbid getting hepatitis.. But we were at a clean place with an amazing vibe that our friend had researched the shit out of.  Due to my uneasiness My GF went first and I documented the event via pics and video. I can't tell you how amazing it was to be there with her as she got her tattoo knowing what the tattoo meant to her. It was the coolest experience. Once she was done... it was my turn.. WA WA.. Turns out because of my ski trip this weekend the guy wouldn't do it! I was SOOO disappointed... extremely disappointed to go home after all that build up with nothing.. I sat on my couch so sad... depressed that the only thing I had to look forward to at the moment was to go grocery shopping.. unbelievable!...I committed to get one, I cheers to it with my girlfriend (whose tattoo is all about commitment).. therefore the date is set - Jan 28th ... and I WILL get my Tattoo.. !!!

7th day of January...
I love a lot of the things I get to do at work.
One of those things is going to the flower market...(I get to go and buy flowers on the companies dime for our photo shoots. I love it!) I had never been to the LA flower market until I had to for work, and once that door was opened... I was SOLD.
I really enjoy flowers, I am always buying them for the house, and love having them at my desk at work, love giving them to friends for b'days and other events... they just bring a good energy.. I occasionally dream of opening a flower store, or at lease helping with arrangements for events one day. Today I had to go to purchase flowers for an up coming shoot... There is one thing I don't love about buying flowers for work... I have to purchase white flowers only, which is beautiful and really does look clean and sleek.. but I like color. So when I go to the market I will also spend a little $ to buy some nice colorful flowers for my home...EVERYONE should buy flowers at the market.. the costs are very reasonable and you get more for your money. Here are the pink roses I bought..2 dozen for $11 bucks.. can't beat that !! Stop and Smell the Roses People!!!

Jan 6th... Day 6 out of 365...
Today's picture is a UPS truck...
Yes, that is random... BUT not really.. Here is my explanation..
I was thinking about a meeting I had earlier in the day on my way home from work. This meeting was a budget meeting with some friends where I got to sit and go over the functions and process of entertainment budgets.. WHICH I seriously LOVE.... and as I am thinking about HOW awesome the meeting was and how much I enjoyed it.. and how I should have taken a picture of the restaurant where me met for this pic-blog... I look at my window and saw 3 UPS trucks driving in a row. Bam.. I was like "YES! UPS man! they know and love logistics JUST like me! " so I quickly snapped a pic to represent today.  This pic stands for the hard work that goes into the people behind the scenes and make things HAPPEN. I love budgeting, I love logistics, I love planning and organizing... its makes me happy.

1/5/12

This is Moki... he is my kitty.. and I love him very very much. I choose this pic because every morning he wakes me up at 5:30 AM to feed him.. yes.. 5:30 AM ...and yes.. every morning like clockwork. I chug a glass of water, feed him, go back to bed .. its just part of the routine now.  I am basically sleep walking it's become so normal... but I bring this up because the best part of my morning routine is about 2 hours later I wake up with Moki cuddled up on my left side purring, and Taylor cuddled up on my right.. and it's the BEST feeling.. I HATE getting out of bed because its just a mound of cuddles and love and WHO would want to leave that to go to work.. NOT ME! but atlas... I have to mon-fri and sometimes on the weekend... This morning was especially hard.. I just wanted to stay in bed...and cuddle with my babies... this is part of my daily life.. cuddles and having to be torn from them. :(
Jan 5th... Day 5...

Today I took a picture and Actually STARTED this blog of an idea, for my new years resolution, diary thing which is a big deal....
...I got new glasses today.. these are them.. sorry you can not see them on my face.. but I want to remain FACELESS on this GIANT WORLD OF the INTERNET.. so back to the glasses.. they are kinda nerdy.. but I kinda love them.. as I can see out of them without seeing that I am wearing glasses... ALL those who wear glasses know what I am talking about and the importance of this feature that comes with LARGE lenses.... and all  those ppl are also very thankful that this is a current fad with glasses... NERDS ARE COOL>> and I am DEF A NERD... hhhiigghhh fivvveee... x

Day 3..

Today was my first day back at work...
NO PICTURE>>> I am started to fail before I begin... alas...
this is a pic of my new "POP PHONE" which is a retro throwback to the 80's headset for your iphone.. or computer.. or anything that it can plug into...
I think it is awesome...
But in a way... Kinda dig the headsets more where you don't use your hands at all... BUT did I mention it's an 80's throwback???.. cause that is what makes this worth it... Boom... miss those rotary dials...

Day 2...
Again.. Not alot of Pics today... So I took a picture of my pointer finger... Hard to tell from the pic but my finger is the size of a large sausage... I took a MAJOR fall... Wish I could provide a video for you.. when skiing at Mt High prior to the new year.. and jammed my finger up to the point where I thought Death was to follow... WHO KNEW jamming a pointer finger would be so ugly and so painful... sad that this picture of Pain is the representation of my life on the 2nd day of the new year.. but alas.. I just turned 30.. and the body is getting older.
I just hope my finger size gets back to normal....I am still sporting a whacked out ring finger from a jam in a basket ball game when I was 12.

1/1/12

I was sitting there thinking about my New Years Resolutions.. and browsing the Internet when I found this blog where people had posted a picture a day! and I thought "that is an awesome idea... I want to try that.." so *BAM* a New Years Resolution was made and I have started a blog where I will post a picture a day representing my life.

Day 1... Jan 1st....
This is sadly harder then I thought it was going to be... I found that at the end of the day I had not taken a picture of anything... HA.. bad start I guess... So I decided to take a picture of my favorite Christmas present. These are 2 copper mugs that were given to me by my boyfriend Taylor and I LOVE THEM!.
one is from Holland.. and the other I can't remember...

(story of copper mugs begins)
 One night Taylor and I went to a local bar and to my surprise they served my new fav drink (thank you Erica) in these adorable copper mugs. It was love at first site.. I drank out of that mug all night and wanted to bring it home with me so badly! I would have except stealing is wrong..(hand slap)  and they had my ID at the bar because SO many people love these mugs that the bar actually HOLDS your DL if you have a mug because people WERE stealing them... Unreal... So as Taylor ripped the copper mug from my had as we left, I must have made quite an impression... because as I sit there on our couch unwrapping my Christmas present thinking "what the heck is this.." LOW and BEHOLD>.. $Ahhhhh$ (beam of light coming out of the sky) there were 2 unique and adorable copper mugs that were ALL mine! best present ever....
(story of mugs concluded)

We brought the mugs with us to Mountain High where we had rented a cabin to celebrate new years.. So as I sat there trying to sort out what to take a picture of for my 1st day of the new year.. I remembered the copper mugs. These mugs are a new addition to the house hold .. and held our drinks (it is AMAZING how cold your drink last in copper mugs) as we paid welcome the New year... so CHEERS everyone... CHEERS to what I hope will be a unforgettable FANTASTIC year for all of us....
the end of day 1... :)
