T,

We recently celebrated the 4th anniversary of our 21st.....We are SOOOOOOO OLDDDDDDD!!!!  

I can't believe how old we are.  It's unreal to me that we've already hit the quarter century mark.  But anywho.... Idk about you, but I had an absolutely amazing birthday.  The original plan was to go see one of our favorite hot mess bands play; but due to the insane amount of people out celebrating St. Paddy's day, my group had to switch locations.  It actually worked out for the best though because it was easier to spend time with everyone who came out for me at the bar we went to instead.  It was really special to have my friends come out in support/celebrate my birthday because I don't see them that much.  It made me realize how lucky I am to have the people in my life that I do.....The birthday would have been a million times better though if you'd been home for us to celebrate together....maybe next year :)

I found this dress while out shopping with Mom and thought it would be a PERFECT birthday dress......it was unfortunately a little small.

Check out my Thrift Store outfit!!!  I ended up wearing this out.....strayed away from my usual black on black on black.  The entire outfit cost under $10.....beat that!

One of my best and most supportive/amazing/beautiful/fun/etc friends made me this gorgeous bracelet that I'm now OBSESSED with!

D got me these beautiful flowers<3  He's to good to me :)

Do I look 25???  I hope not!!!

Miss you

xoxo

I'm a goof

T,

I loved your previous post!!  I wish I did fun stuff like that.....I'll have to start making time to do so.

Anywho..... I'm on day 11 of working non stop and I'm starting to lose my mind a little bit.  Sorry if everything I post is a little random and doesn't making sense....like I said I'm losing my mind lol I can't wait for tomorrow so I can sleep in...I might even hit the gym!!

I'm seriously concerned about this picture......Are we waxing boobs now?  I already do enough vagina's and I really don't think I can handle adding on boobs......DON"T MAKE ME DO IT!

If you would like something other then your boobs waxed....please come see me :)

In my attempt to quit smoking I have become addicted to Starburst and Eclipse gum.  I'm like the Starburst fairy at work because I'm always running up to the front and giving the girls candy.  It's helping for the most part but I still owe a certain someone some miles for cheating :/

I've been back on my health kick recently.  I went to Trader Joes and got a bunch of healthy nom noms and I've been making an effort when I eat out to get giant salads.  I got this on my 12 hour day lunch break and the veggies and protein really helped me power through the rest of the day.

BTW.....It's our BIRTHDAY on Friday.....what are you gonna do to celebrate??

Miss you

xoxo

Tuesday Pickup: Cold Weather Edition

This past week has been a blur and I'm glad I have this post to look forward to--even thought it's early, Tuesday has already been brutal.  There was a series of missteps (I believe the term is, cascading failures) that made me miss my bus into work and therefore miss the sweet spot of 7-7:45 gym time when I'm the only one there.  Not a tragedy, but the extra 25 minutes of waiting outside for a bus put a damper on my gym enjoyment.  I'm still cold.

DC has been frigid recently. Usually this time of year we're into the 60s and it's sunny everyday.  Instead, we've had what feels like weeks of wet, cold weather. Case in point: there's a predicted snowstorm heading into town tomorrow.  It's like I'm back in the northeast!

I love visiting the Kennedy Center for their free exhibitions and performanced.  Their latest theme is called "Nordic Cool" and it uses art and artists from the Nordic region.  Above is one of the large installations in the Hall of the States, and one of the dresses featured in an icy forest of fashion.

My favorite pieces were in the miniatures section.  In one of the rooms, the walls had a row of suspended boxes, each with a diaorama inside.  The dresses in this picture mimic larger dresses on mannequins outside.

Another miniature.  I have no idea what these are, but they're gorgeous.  I want to wear them on a jacket!

Finally, a picture of me on the balcony.  If there weren't so much fog you would be able to see the Potomac river int he background.  I was originally swaddled in about four more layers, but took them off for a quick photo.

I'm getting chills just looking at these!  Time for some tea!
