Always Separate the Drugs

Watching the Goonies and it makes me want to go to Haystack Rock so bad. It's off the Oregon Coast at Cannon Beach. Who's interested in an adventure to find the rich stuff?

Brunch at Can Can part 2

These were so freaking amazing.
Chocolate Cherry pancakes from the Can Can brunch menu.

Brunch at Can Can part 1

Bloody Demon from Can Can.
This drink tasted like spicy shrimp cocktail sauce.
Glad I didn't order it.

This Dress is Awesome and I would Love to have it

I really want this vintage 1960's dress but I know I shouldn't spend my money on it right now. It's only $32 but still I need to save my money.

UPDATE: I bought it!

Oprah's Life before her TV Show

I wonder what it would be like to see Oprah on TV after getting with her as a teenager.

Enjoying a Snack while watching Harriet the Spy

I love me a strawberry coated in nutella while watching some awesome movies that remind me of times gone by.

An Update on the Decorating of My Apartment

The candle holders now have some vase rocks and round candles in them. Perfect.
A tiny mirror, spectacles, and a key for decorating my apartment.
Three silver plate/trays to also help with the decorating around the apartment.
 Finally hung my diploma over my bookshelf. I'm intelligent and there's the proof.
Also, put the collection of crosses my mom has slowly started collecting for me above the doorway to my kitchen.

Inception

Inception was AMAZING... now I'm curious if I'm just living a dream or this is actual reality.
I kind of want my own totem and Leo DiCaprio all to myself. What a sexy piece of man.

Growing Magic Dinosaurs

Carol Ann got me these and I can't wait to see how big they get.

Employee Appreciation

For Employee Appreciation Week the Gap decided to make us goodie bags and get all of us involved too. So for my contribution I made little cards with nice things written on them and attached them to some old beanie babies I had lying around and then threw in some chocolate muffin dinosaurs. I hope this goes over well and I can't wait to see what other people did.

I've Lived here for 8 Months and I'm still Decorating

Recently I've gone on a spending binge to decorate my apartment. I keep looking at my walls and thinking they need to have something on them because they are super bare.
Yesterday, I ordered this vintage dictionary page with a printed anatomical heart on it from Etsy that I can't wait to get here so I can frame it and hang it somewhere in my apartment.
I also went into Ross last night and got these three guys for $12 which in my eyes was something I couldn't pass up.
Last night I was super busy with this whole ordeal apparently because I also put in a bid on this Bubo transistor radio.
 Today I'm still looking at Etsy trying to decide if I want to get more awesome stuff or not, and these are a few of my finds.
 I can't decide if I like the butterfly better or the dragonfly. They are both so awesome and I wish I could afford both.
I am absolutely NUTS over this round bottom flask and vintage stand, but the stand is super expensive so I'm getting neither.


I'm thinking one of these days I want to go thrifting around Richmond to see what other unique gems I can find to decorate my apartment with so it will start to feel a bit more homey.

More Photos from Krista's Birthday (John's Camera)

Us at our table after finishing up our dinner when Brad and John showed up.
Action type shot. Amanda is taking a photo, Krista is about to blow out her candles, and I'm flipping my hair.
The adorable couple!
It's a balcony thing. (I'm super jealous of this fish eye thing John has for his camera)
Brad really loves boobs even if he is gay.
Oh my... we're a little drunk looking.
 I love this photo of me. John is such an artist! 
Me and John.
Who's birthday is it? Why it's this girl's birthday!!!
We got pretty trashed to say the least.
We're all super gone at this point, but still looking fabulous.
Close up of John drinking out of a cup... so Richmond.
 HAHAHA... I love their faces.
Gorgeous!!!
We're a couple of crazy kids having a good time.
Awesome group shot... too bad everyone wasn't in it.

Krista's Birthday Extraveganza


Strawberry Mojitos from Balliceaux. They were so good and so were the blackberry ones.
Krista and I with our delicious mojitos.
The three of us lovely ladies FINALLY sitting at our table. Which Krista made reservations forever ago for.
 Adam and his lover Dan. Not sure why Dan looks like he is about to drink the flower water but whatever.
Us ladies again. This time Amanda is getting a little silly.
Two mojitos in and I decided it was time to lick Krista.
Brad and John finally joined us and Brad helped me finish my tasty burger.
The love birds again this time Dan is making an awesome face.
John and Adam drinking coffee and Dan contemplating what it would be like to be a beautiful butterfly.
Krista's delicious birthday dessert from Ballcoxs that they split among everyone withouth asking. It's cool though.
This scooter was parked outside Ballicaeux and it's built for two.
Those morons couldn't park their VW bug to save their life in a larger spot. They looped the block and tried again this time parking infront of two other bugs.... clearly that made the difference.
 Krista and Adam. How cute!
Krista with her power belt and Dan has the light of God (or the fan) behind him.
Krista has been turned into a cup!!!!
Birthday drinks!!!
I'm a drunk fool!
She had the birthday song sung to her twice in one night. I like to think we did it better than those tards at Ballicaeux.
I made out with her at one point. The guys kept telling us to do it and when it finally happened no one was prepared to catch it on film.
Some day after Joe's Inn breakfast to help cure the hangovers and need of food that Krista, Adam, Dan, and I all had.
The Wylander... there can be only one!!!!!!!!!


Some of these photos are from Krista's camera and if John puts the ones from his camera up on facebook I will be posting some more later. It was an epic night filled with great memories and probably more that aren't remembered.

HAPPY 24TH KRISTA!!!!
