Good Times

Well if it wasn't completely obvious, I had an awesome Holiday Season with the big NYE coming up pretty fast... as in... tomorrow... fuuuuuckkk.....

So, I figured I would come and make a 3rd December post for my own memories. Unfortunately I took no pictures. Of anything. Well, I took a picture of the sky:

Its been like totally cold and gloomy here in Tucson lately. I hate to complain because we don't get that much rain but... it has been sucking. There's no indication of date or time. It's like the damn Long Winter out here!!!!!

Except instead of wearing awesome Winter clothes and getting flushed while having a snowball thrown at me, I'm like dragging my feet through puddles, wearing a short jacket over a tank top, and gazing at the sky in confusion. That's okay though. I'm going to visit my East Coast family for a few days next week and hopefully after facing a Real Winter, I will be more excited to come back to Easy Old Tucson. Whatever I'm just typing nonsense right now while I sit in a small crack of sunlight that comes through my window for like 2 hours a day (Tucson is supposed to have a 14 hour sun window! What the hell!!!!)

So I got awesome stuff for Christmas, which I am very happy about. I have been happily drooling over this amazing Wicked Witch Barbie: (of which there are apparently no good pics of online! What the hell, internet???  Mels was kind enough to get her for me so I could take her photo [I can't be bothered to get out of this patch of sunlight until it disappears and I have to go stand under the heat lamp in my bathroom])

 You can really see the flush in her cheeks below:

DON'T YOU JUST LOVE HER LITTLE WICKED WITCH CAMEO?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Her skin is green, and her thighs are super sexy green!!!! She's super awesome :)

Mels also got me this awesome tablet!!!!!!! (I better be able to find a pic of this online... grumble...)

It's a 7 inch 4 gig tablet... it's fuckin' awesome :)

I also got this from my little sister Giselle (OMG RIGHT?!@?!?!!!!!!):

I got an awesome humidifier and this wacky Cuisinart from my mom.... oh yessssss...

I got a fuckin SLEW of books that I have been having an awesome time reading!!!!

Well, you get the picture!!!!!!!! OH yeah I got Graffiti Planet from my mom haha :)

For my family gift exchange, I got this amazing dress form: (which of COURSE I cannot find a pic of online!!!!!!! Dammit!!!!!!!!!!! It's okay everyone, Mels is gonna go take a pic of it right now.... he is humming the Poirot theme, I can hear him! Hehe... Okay here we go... it's kinda dark but oh well...)

She is soooooooooooooooooooooo pretty!!!! I'm really really looking forward to using her for many things!!!!

Okay, so now I am being summoned to go do something more interesting than this! Yikes!

Hope you all had an awesome holiday season, some of you I can see you did, others I would like some visual confirmation you are doing well. Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love ya,

Late Night Early Morning Christmas Chrafting

I'm on my tenth episode of Veronica Mars and just made six ornaments for my (more traditional) Christmas Tree!!!!! Since it's now 5 am and I've been up all night, I figured I might as well just give in to ultimate craft geekiness, come here and put these pics up!!!!!!!!

So here without any excuses about how poorly made they are, because indeed they were my first foray, without any further ado, my animal ornaments!!!!

 This was the first one I made, a size/shape experiment!!!

 I didn't really like the denim so I used this cotton instead to make little badges:

 Here's the animals! A beaver I guess!

 A Christmas Kitten:

 It was supposed to be a cardinal but looks more like a chicken I guess? A Christmas Chicken!!!!

 A Little Turtle (Looks like ??? )

 And this one is for Mels, it's his puppy dog Diesel:

Also, as a the tree topper on my little silver fiber optics tree I put this awesome figure:

So there you go!!!! Hope you're having a good morning!
Love ya,
Smog

Should I start the 11th episode of Veronica Mars season 3? No, I think I'll go to bed!!!! LoL ;P

Well, It's December!!!

Holy Crap! I haven't posted at all in December. Things have been happening and yet at the same time not to much has been going on. Sometimes growth isn't measured in distance. Whatevs, right? I'm happy 2010 is coming to a close and looking forward to 2011. There are 30 months before my 30th birthday and I've started working on a pretty serious, official 30-Before-30 list. I've seen some of these floating around the internet (like at Delightfully Tacky, you know that blogger that just got done driving her Winnebago around the country?) and at first was like "That is so moronic" but in all reality I'm having somewhat of an Ageist reality crisis. Thinking about the human life ending at 45 or 50 like in Ye Olden Times, 30 seems fucking old. But now that humans live to be way too fucking old, 30 seems just fine. I'm totally making the best of it and I really like my list. It's too private to share here but when I cross stuff off, I'll let you know. 

So I have taken 43 photos since the last time I blogged! SMOG! WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!?!!!!!

Right then, let's get to it!!!!

I really enjoy laying on my lawn. I usually get stalked by cats the whole time:

 Toms up there/\ Johnny's down there \/

You can tell these pics were taken awhile ago because the patchy grass is gone and it's all nice and green and perfect now!!!! Anyway so I always lay on this little (pretty stupid) blanket and as soon as I get up for one second, I immediately get seat jacked!

Tom the cat is a huge baby:

And another huge baby (panther maybe) Mister Midnite:

Some of the Fam came out from the Eastern Seaboard and:

They really wanted to buy this house:

Also, we went to Tucson Mall and my dad had his first ever Jamba Juice! 

And we all got our body mass index on that funny GNC machine. And our pics in the photo booth. I don't have pics of that stuff though. Sorry ;P

Then they left and my life returned to:

Sky Gazing:

And Taco Night:

(I actually really want to have a taco party before school starts back up. I just need to pic a day and force you all to RSVP...)

I also finally set up my Christmas tree... I have two artificial trees and set them both up to see which one I liked best... so yeah, after seeing them both together there was no way I could only pick one, so they are both up, just in opposite corners of the room so the holiday festiveness is spread about. Also one is really traditional and one is really silver-fiber-optical so yeah. I'm happy!!!

I know I have like a ton of other random stuff to say but right now it's a beautiful peaceful Sunday in the neighborhood and I happen to be sitting in a particularly sought-after sunny patch on the couch. So I'm gonna put this computer away (and let me state for the record, the reason I haven't been blogging or archiving my radio show is because I just can't stand using the computer for more than like 5 seconds... I much prefer a handheld device...) and enjoy life. 

Love you guys, and I hope you're all well. Thinking of everyone a lot during this silly holiday season :)

Love ya!
