we feel fine book winner...

three cheers to the winner of our we feel fine book giveaway, mr. brian sikorski of wonderful time photography! it seems random.org wanted to see his flaming middle finger just as much as we did, and brian was nice enough to oblige with a photo!

still bummed you didn't win? it's ok, you can still order a copy!

karaoke party pics!

aw nuts, it's been a couple of days since my last post! i'm trying to get back into the swing of writing every day like i used to; sometimes things are so busy it slips my mind!

like these past couple of days - wednesday night was my buddy shannon and i's last chance to karaoke together before her move next week to denver, colorado! we went to clancy's in long beach and it. was. awesome!

i'm getting ready for an open house right now because we're trying to sell our condo, otherwise i'd give you the full and complete rundown of the night's activities - instead i'll just tell you that you should click here to see the pics we took!

by the way, if you or someone you know is looking for a condo in downtown long beach definitely check out www.1919beverlyway103.com and also please buy it! i'll love you forever!

happy new years!!!

omg i am awful, it's already a week into the new year, i've been home from vacation for like 3.5 days now, and i STILL have not updated anything on the blog!!

i'll keep it short and sweet, but the holidays were a blasty! was bequeathed with a spanky new buttonmaker that will greatly expand the amount of stuff i can make for your artsy fartsy enjoyment, keep an eye out for all kinds of new designs soon!

a big ol group of us went to savannah to stay at the farm for a week and it was amazing. lots of good times all around - if ya wanna take a gander at our shenanigans, go here! if ya wanna see what celeb paid a visit to the ol' farmstead, go here! if ya wanna see actual for real pics of our farm, go here! enjoy!

i did a crazy amount of reading on the trip out and back, so in the next couple of days i'll have new book reports for you!

pow!!! it's great to be back!

margarita-cha-cha-cha!

last night was fun - josh and i decided to take jimmy for a walk. thinking ahead of time, hey it'll be a lark to take him on the long walk down to ocean blvd and along it a bit before circling back, and maybe we should stop at the grocery store on the way back for some margarita mix.

so i just mapquested our whole trip last night and it ended up being a 3.5 mile hike. i just didn't think we'd actually walked that far. i do know we saw lights on at my sisters upstairs apartment, and yelled up to it for like 3 minutes telling her what a chump she is with no answer. tried calling her cell and she wasn't even home. way to waste electricity, chump!

and the margaritas were delicious and saturday night live STILL isn't any good. the end!
