there's a lot of things i've been ignoring around my apartment, including really decorating, because often the picture in my head is so much cooler than what i think i'll actually accomplish. ever the perfectionist (and by association, procrastinator), i've put the decorating thing off. however, i started a couple projects today, including ordering an appropriately sized bedspread for my grown up full. call it spring fever, if you wish, but these are the things on my immediate to do list for my next "weekend."*

*i work in a restaurant, so my "weekends" are monday/tuesday.

hump day smile

it may be the first day of my work week, but everyone could use a smile on wednesdays, whether it's the middle of your week, the end or the beginning. especially when it's coming from these sweet two lads.

it's been a while...

... and i really have no excuse for my lack of blogging other than that i just had to unplug from the online world for a while in order to deal with a few things in my offline world. but i'm back. here's what's been happening lately.

as you can see, it's been a lot of coffee, cats and admiring landscapes. escapades that involved friends and some that did not. hanging out in the park and babysitting from time to time. waiting for the train (mostly the F) and getting caught up on some reading.

my life, in a youtube video.

yup, actually have uttered most of those things.

holidazed

i have to apologize for the lack of posts lately; it's been a combination of laziness and being extremely busy at work during the holiday season. anyways, i'm finally back at it, so here's some photos of life from the last few weeks.

spending time at home

presents abound during the birthday month

playing boardgames and enjoying snow

holiday nails and parties

ringing in the new year with good friends

hope you've all been able to enjoy the holiday season!

brilliant

the twitter account @shitgirlssay is absolutely brilliant and now it appears that its creators have started a youtube series, the first of which went live yesterday. i can't stop watching it:

i'm also loving the juliette lewis makes a cameo.

happy friday

 

happy friday! i don't know if anyone is a fan of dance, but if you are i'm going to put in a plug for the company i've been working for. if you're in nyc, consider buying tickets or you could watch the performance tonight (for free!) from the comfort of your living room by clicking here.

 

i'm going to be working quite a bit, as i do every weekend, but i'm hoping to get in some 'me' time as well. plus find time to do christmas shopping...what are your plans this weekend?
