Work Wildlife

I haven’t been doing anything interesting but working lately, but I’d thought I’d post some pictures of animals I meet when I leave in the evening. I’m not exactly sure of the species or anything, but I generally know that the pictures show a skink/gecko/lizard, a squirrel (chilling out under my vehicle), and a grasshopper of some sort. eta: This […]

Flaming Lips

A couple of months ago, Rob bought us tickets to see the Flaming Lips show at the house of blues in North Myrtle Beach. The much-anticipated event was finally held last night. We had the best time ever. The Flaming Lips handed out laser pointers before the show; the laser pointers, confetti, balloons, crazy lighting, antics of the crowd, and […]

Southpark Mall Trip

This past weekend, my family made our way to the awesome Southpark Mall in Charlotte. We had a great time, and I did some massive spending damage. I’m just glad I didn’t succumb to the allure of the MBTs.

Whitening Teefs

I’m not sure if “Craftiness” is the best place to put my teeth whitening pictures, but as it as project that will progress over the course of a couple of weeks, I decided to put it here. Yesterday, I got my dentist approved whitening kit. Here’s my smile after the first day of treatment.

The mournful and/or screeching call of an owl is also associated with death & misfortune. At any rate, I like to keep them on my side, symbolically & otherwise. At the 2007 North Myrtle Beach St. Patrick’s Day […]

First Azalea of Spring?

It’s warm and balmy here at the beach; the azalea buds are all out. I even found this little guy blooming. In a week or two, it will be the most beautiful time of year at the beach. Have a great champagne thursday everyone!

Icelandic Jewelry

In Iceland, everything is expensive. If you’re going to visit, it really helps to get a room with a kitchen, so you can save some money on food by cooking for yourself. I got a room with a kitchen when I visited, that enabled me to buy some pretty jewelry. I brought back a handcrafted, one-of-a-kind piece (I met the […]

Laundry News

I know it has been quite some time since I have updated this website. It’s funny how time just sneaks up on you. I just got DSL at my apartment, and will be updating much more regularly in the future. Below you can view pictures of my new washer & dryer. They’re so quiet, new, & gorgeous. No more car […]

Happy Valentine’s to Me!

Due to the extremely busy nature of my schedule last week; Rob and I were forced to postpone our Valentine’s celebration to Friday night. He gave me such a gorgeous right-hand ring, it was well worth the wait. Designed and handmade by Down to the Wire Designs on Etsy, Rob did a wonderful job picking out a piece of jewelry […]
