the peacock.

my thursday evenings are filled with all my favorite people.
michael scott. leslie knope. and my most favorite and who i want to be when i grow up, Liz Lemon.

singing into a bottle of pinot grigio. wearing a fanny pack to work. an addiction to hard cheese and hot dogs? i think we were meant to be bff's forever. 

maybe it sounds boring and slightly sad. but i enjoy my thursday night 'me' time with the bigs and my favorite people (albeit, they are fictional but i am ok with that)

secret habits.

as of recently i've been obsessing over lifestyle blogs. i love taking peeks into other peoples lives and getting inspired by all the amazing women out there and all that they have to offer.
today i (stalked) read through this girls blog for hours: elsiecake i love, luff, lurve her handmade artwork, her love story and her cute hair and tattoos. not to mention i am in lust with her little shop that she owns with her equally talented friends. so awesome.

i woke up not feeling all that great today so i have been watching cheesy movies all day like 'ps - i love you' and a personal fav of mine 'the holiday' i just love that kate winslet. i also watched 'the client list' and i immediately felt like i should never have said that outloud. but here i am, sharing another secret of my single sad little life. ha! i kid, but i definitely have my single gal behavior that i'd never like others to know about. like when im watching tv or a movie, i run my hand through my hair pulling it straight up and letting it fall haphazardly. i end up looking like the bride of frankenstein. weird weird weird. who knows why, it just feels good.

ps. today i am thankful for janelle monet on the grammys.

wakey wakey, eggs and bakey.

i've never been what one might call, a 'morning' person. it takes me almost a full 3 hours to actually 'wake up' after waking up and getting out of bed. i am the kind of person who needs to decompress before my day even begins. since i work in the service industry, i don't typically have to work till late afternoon/evening. giving me plenty of time for a morning coffee or soda and some tv time to catch up on.
its one of my strange habits. i'd like to be able to just wake up and go. get in the shower. get going. take a run. but, no. i need to curl up with my pup for a solid hour. read my fashion blogs. drink some caffiene and then shower and move on with my day.

my friend Eric has been visiting from Portland with his lovely GF jack, whom i've completely come to love. she's loud. she collects gin. she's my new BFF. its my decision. unfortunately. they live in portland. but fortunately, its not that far of a plane ride and i can't wait to visit them and go to all the extra fun sounding places they told me all about. i've never been to portland and they are (bless their hearts) trying to get me to move there. its not that hard of an accomplishment. i'll move anywhere if people ask me enough times. its another of my strange habits. wandering.

its a beautiful day here. i've spent my hour waking up (while drinking coffee and watching last nights greys anatomy) now its time for a shower and lunch with a bestie.
