whew!

It was the perfect weekend, the perfect ceremony, the perfect party :) Em, Jeff - You guys did an amazing job and planned a beautiful wedding and reception. I'm so happy for you and i wish you the BEST in your years to come. Emily was the most gorgeous, kick back bride and Jeff looked hot as ever. I can't express how much fun we all had but I think the pictures speak for themselves!

ashtray!

i hate walking into a room and smelling ash. i can handle it if someone smokes, i just prefer they do it away from me. i value my lungs, and i apparently value the aromatic qualities of the air i breathe at work too. i get it that some people NEED to smoke cigarettes, however that smell sticks to them like glue, and then follows them wherever they go and sticks to other people as well.
i hate the woman who lives downstairs from me. she smokes out of her window, which drifts up and right into my open bedroom window. i live at the beach. i should be able to have my window open and enjoy the cool breeze without smelling crap. i think i'm going to start spraying febreeze down at her from the balcony.
i hate the woman who parks across from me in the garage. she smokes every morning before going to her car. i think she actually smokes IN the elevator, stinking it up and making it unbearable for me to use. i now take the stairs down every morning from my 3rd floor condo just to avoid the possibility of a gross elevator ride. I don't want to smell like you. i don't want my hair to stink. i don't want my clothes to stink.

Ok, that's my rant. thanks for reading.

bleh.

The Getty Villa

Went to the Getty Villa in Malibu with Dad, Lorelie and her mom on Sunday. This place is amazing! I can't believe that Mr. Getty lived in such a beautiful place and that now it is open to the public for practically nothing.. There is some really sweet greek and roman sculpture here in addition to the amazing gardens, amphitheater and architecture. Check it out if you get a chance, it makes for a relaxing, art-filled day :)More here

lashes

yea, asian girls can do it too!

YEEEEE- haw

Nathan 'Diamond Dog' Jones: [getting Poe's attention]
Yee-haw! What's on your mind, Hillbilly?

Cameron Poe:
What was I thinking about? Oh, yeah, "yee-haw", that's right.

HA!

Dancing with Jason Taylor

Thank you Tim Edwards!! I don't mind a bit ;)

Lunch on the pier - again :)

That's twice in less than a week.

2 more weeks!!!!

This was our final fitting before Em's big day! She's gonna be the most gorgeous bride :)

tagging

i found my name tagged on a stoplight. I was excited.

in the parking lot at work

Leavin'... on a bike ride...

I absolutely LOVE the fact that I live less than a mile from the ocean! I took my beach cruiser, Squeak, out for a spin this weekend. We ended up going about 25 miles - WHEW! But it was super fun, completely relaxing, and eye-opening. I never knew how fantastic the Redondo Beach Pier really is!??!? It's shaped like a horseshoe! So, now i'm a bit infatuated with it. You'll definitely be hearing more about it on here... fair warning!

and today...?

on my lunch break

This is how i feel today

Point Break - LIVE!!!!!

So, yea, it's exactly what it sounds like.... But i guarantee it's the best 2 hours of complete hilarity and ridiculousness that you'll ever experience. When you walk in, they offer you a 'survival kit'. Please take it, as it includes a much needed plastic Poncho (pictured above).

I ended the night with fake blood between my toes and stuck in my hair :) HAPPILY! My makeup was smeared from being hit in the face with a super soaker, and i laughed so hard that my throat hurt the next day. Henry and i agree that no words can completely get across the beauty of this performance. You just have to see it for yourself. Check it out on Myspace... they're now in my top 8. that's how good it was.
