    Hooray for Spring, List Time

    Friday, March 12th, 2010

    I’m drinking my last Hazelnut Latte today since next week I will begin my 101 things #93: No Starbucks Coffee for 2 weeks. This is a habit that will be hard to break since there is one that I stop into on my way to work. I’m confident I can do it though. It’s just coffee and there’s free coffee in my office, plus I’ll save some dough. I plan on putting what I would have used for Starbuck in an envelope and putting aside for something special.

    Also, I can cross off #86: Say “Yes” to something you normally would say no to. I’m very particular about strangers asking for cigarettes off me and I never do it. I have my reasons, for instance, I really don’t like the idea of giving someone something that I know is bad for them. Yesterday, after work, though, I gave in. I was in a particularly mellow mood walking from the bus to the house and after exchanging ‘good afternoon’ with a passerby. He asked for a cigarette, and to his surprise, I complied. He looked like he had a rough day.

    In other news, I’m house hunting. I’ve been very surprised at the amazing response from all of my friends and the help that looks like I’ll be getting. I can’t wait to start looking :)

    I’ve had a wonderful week that kicked off with a warm Sunday porch sitting and later an evening at Cocoanut Grove, so I will leave you with a photo from Sunday Night taken by my wonderful friend, Kristen Leep.

    Hope you all have a great weekend! I think I’ll be starting #56: Blog everyday for one month soon – Just to warn you ;)

    Winter Blues

    Monday, March 1st, 2010

    I haven’t been posting like I’d like to. This winter is really bringing me down. I’m very much looking forward to Springtime – warmer days, brighter colors, bike riding, sunglasses, skirts, walks downtown, energy, and motivation. Forgive my absence while I hibernate for a little while longer.

    Warmth

    Thursday, January 14th, 2010

    Well, today was a lot warmer than I expected, it’s definitely lifted my spirits :) I only wish I had known before picking out my clothes yesterday, I could have rocked a skirt with tights today. Most of the snow has melted. I know that this is pretty much the calm before the storm, February in Indianapolis can be brutal, but I’ll take it while I can!

    Our boss took us out to a post holiday lunch at Weber Grill. The chili was amazing!

    Me today:

    I painted and decorated my nails yesterday:

    I’ve been really inspired by this girl.

    I also painted my toenails glitter chrome silver…because I can. :}

    Happy Weekend: 101 things in 1001 days

    Friday, January 8th, 2010


    photo by me

    I decided instead of having actual resolutions this year, I was going to do the 101 things in 1001 days (dayzeroproject.com). I haven’t made the whole list but I’d thought I’d share a few with you. :)

  • Join a punk band
  • Write a song
  • Buy a bass amp
  • Knit a pair of mittens
  • Take black and white photography of NY Graffiti
  • Organize the records alphabetically
  • Bake a cake
  • Go to Chicago
  • Donate monthly to the Uganda Skateboard Union
  • Take one double exposure with my lomo every day for one year
  • Do you have any things you would like to accomplish for 2010?
