Life

I have to say I experienced one of the longest night of my life yesterday. I met up with the guys at House of Blues for a free Fang Island show expecting awesomeness, only to find myself waiting anxiously for three not so fang-tastic opening bands to get through with their sets. I won’t name names, but one one band in particular is hands down the worst show I’ve ever had to listen to in my life. Fang Island was a good show, if only I had enough energy to enjoy it by the time they came on, right around 1 Am. But I lost all hope when a couple started a Bollywood dance in front of me and the guy kept asking the chick, “was that good for you?” On the upside of things, thank goodness for a sweet ass parking space, giant lounge chairs in abundance, decent drinks, and confetti.

I’ve been eying these items for some time now, so imagine my delight when Anthropologie had a big spring sale this week!

Blushing faille dress, for a wedding maybe?

Those Matryoshka measuring cup dolls and Stripey straws are are gonna be a hit at parties!

weekends

Took a trip down to Avant  Garden for another one of Richard Saenz’s fashion show where my friend was one of the models. I brought my little wooden fan with me, knowing how hot these places down  in Westheimer can be. Definitely the most useful accessory of the night.  I haven’t been to this yellow house since it used to be Helios when it was a dark and grimy place for local beatniks and whatnot. I’m glad they cleaned up the place. The whole dirty, grungy decor is just not comfortable for anyone. The front patio is really cute with overgrown oleanders and ivy closing in on the walkways. I heart sunsets. And Friday nights with the girls. Lately, I’ve been more inclined to grab a drink at a bar than going to the latest nightclub. I like people watching and  having a conversation with some cheap drinks. We went to Poison Girl, a local bar down in the Montrose area, and I had the best margarita on the rocks. gooood stuff.

My hair is so long! I need a trim.

Something gaudy for wedding parties and for days when I feel like a little old lady. I finally found the perfect planner. It has lots of blank spaces and pages for me to scribble in all my lists and agendas and notes. And the little Polaroids and drawings are a sweet touch!
