bad mood bears

Whenever I am prepping myself for bad times ahead, or just having a bad time of it, I enjoy going to the olive bar at Whole Foods. My prescription: olives stuffed with feta, and picholines. My rainy day turns into a perfect day with elevated sodium levels, and oily finger prints.

trying times

I procured some oranges due to my craving of juice, and good health. I made a silly assumption that 3 oranges would yield a tad more. There I go, dreaming big again.

September in a nutshell

One of my favorite pictures I have taken.

This is actually a re-post from over a year ago, but I felt like I needed to do it again. One of the reasons being A: I really miss the subjects, and B: I miss shooting with the camera. I have it, but I need to bring it in for repairs due to the camera eating film. Its a Polaroid land camera from 1965, and it just takes really great photos. When I scanned it the first time, it didn't turn out so good.

A classy work photo

No more low end tea parties.

Thanks to Chinatown, I have a lovely teapot! My old one suffered the fate of rust, which made me realize that I may have been a tad cheap initially. At least I'm self-aware, I guess.

A lovely day in the camera hood.

Outfitting

An oldie, but a fantastically goodie. I have had this versatile dress for at least, 5 years, and I have received lots of wear from it. Some days I layer shirts over it, throw on a sweater, or just wear as is. I half-assed the process in which to do a four image picture. As geeky as I am, you would think I would be terrific at these photo editing softwares...but mediocrity is my middle on this one.

Change of many paces

I have been making attempts at being more choice with my fashions as I step out. Time and time again, I glance at myself when out with friends, and I wonder; is this how I want to represent myself? I have been so lazy lately with my garb, it has consisted of plain V-necks, with jeans and a cardigan (which is classic, and looks nice) but really want to be a tad more pleasant looking.
Blaming it partly on the Sartorialist (sp?) and on other interweb sites, I think at 29, yours truly needs a clothes lift.

Without further adieu, outfit for day 1.

Fancy Cookies, Fancy Times

(I wrote this in March, of 2005 while master controllin' in MN. I believe it was an overnight shift)


5:15am I gaze longingly at my now-empty bag of chips, with the hope of maybe some little mouse or a borrower decided to nest inside. Distraught, I throw the bag away, but not without taking one last peek in the bag.

5:18Am I decided to capitalize the A in AM.

5:19am After much debate, the a went back to lowercase.

5:19Am Alright, I sort of enjoy the large A. Very much in command, almost boastful, but not enough to intimidate.

5:20AM The M started a revolt among the letters and almost wouldn't stop until I made her capitalized. I thought I never wanted children. Until AM came along, I was childless.

5:23AM A told me a great story. She acted it out with a great flourish, so great that she knocked my tea over. I tell her everyday that there is a career in stand-up with her name on it, but she insists on being a exotic dancer/rodeo clown. It's her life.

5:26AM I think A wants to have babies. Last night, I overheard her telling M and that scrawny johnson boy from next door that she wants someone to fill her with babies.

4:30AM Whilst changing the clock to set the next alarm for my recording at 6Am, I accidently added an hour*. Mostly wishful thinking.

*Please do not feel led astray, I really didn't know that I am an idiot and added an hour. These events really did happen.

4:33AM A confessed that she was feeling a mommy tendancy. She told me that I wouldn't understand and that I am lucky to "own" ( I have tried to repeatedly tell her that it's built in) a uterus to spawn. I think the best part of this conversation was that she came home after her rodeo clownin' and still had her outfit on.

Dreams actualized.

Update for the interested party.

1. I will be heading to the Carolinas next week, for some good times. I will hopefully do some mobile blogging, if I remember. I am a bit of a jackass sometimes.

2. Currently been working on my portfolio, on and off. It's coming along. I re-posted one on my Vimeo, with a couple of tweaks.

3. Also working on a project with my co-worker. It involves a family of Wigs, (not to be confused with the Whig party, history buffs) incidentally all named wig. Well, the main character is nicknamed "Wigzy", but it's just something silly we are putting together. I will have a file uploaded soon for the interested parties.

4. Been going to the beach a few times a week, along with doing lots of weight training with my cardio. I will be boob-less in no time...kidding.

I think that will do.

I love bread.

Love and circus freaks

I've come to the conclusion that I am sick of meeting and hearing about gorgeous people. Some might point and wave the insecurity flag in my face, and to that I say, not true. I am a very secure and confident lass, albeit a bored one.

We live in Los Angeles, with lots of good looking and if yer lucky, intelligent people. Now, I am totally down for meeting cool, good looking people. But it's 2010, can't we be more, um, creative?

I would much rather have this preface:

"Ok, so Jack's partner is really great, no worries. But one thing: He has a quatto on the side of his head."

This scenario would be preferential as well:

Them: "So, Anne is coming over, and I just have to tell you real quick...she has a slight abnormalcy."
Me: "What, does she have narcolepsy or something?"
Them: "She has a mouth like Predator."
Me: "Uhm, is that possible?"

See?
