Some things I will never understand

Ok, I get it. We’re in California. For the most part, in California, excluding the Sierra Nevada, temperatures will rarely drop under 32°F/0°C. It’s not freezing. But nevertheless, it can get pretty damn cold during the winter months. Why the heck are Californian houses so poorly insulated and why in hell do so many apartments…

OT, weekend and the Oscars

Last weekend was, in fact, not a weekend at all… if it hadn’t been for the Oscars. This has really been my only “fun activity” for the past two days. Why, you ask? Because I had to work overtime this weekend. I stayed in the office until 10 p.m. on Friday and came in for another…

I can be very, and I mean VERY particular

As mentioned many, many times on this blog, say it with me,  I am NOT really a coffee drinker. I just like a little coffee flavor in my milk :) However, I am very particular about that “little flavor”. You probably think that with all the milk in the coffee, I won’t be able to actually really taste…

Photographer’s block

I cannot believe it. Seriously. I treated myself to this incredible camera last summer and I have not yet found the time to make full use of its capabilities.  I am angry with myself. I want to take a photography class so badly, but I have not found the energy to even look for one (and I am sure there are plenty),…

Happy Self-Love Day!

Today is Valentine’s Day. While I like the romantic idea of it, I don’t buy into all the commercial crap that surrounds Valentine’s Day. I can have a good time with J any other day of the year and I don’t need Valentine’s Day for him to show me that he loves me (or vice…

Just wanted to share…

My sister sent me this incredibly sweet (and no, I am not biased ;)) picture of my little niece Greta yesterday. I love it so much that I HAD to share it with you! It makes me sad that I couldn’t be there with her when she took her first swimming lesson. Doesn’t she look totally comfortable?…

On our obsession with the X-Files

Yes, I know I haven’t mentioned it in a while, but J and I are still working on watching all seasons of the X-Files. We took a little break, but we’ve officially started Season 8 now. When the X-Files movie came out last summer, we were really tempted to  go and see it at the…

My shopping trip

I went grocery shopping on Friday. I know that some people (Hi Kim!) hate it, but I actually enjoy grocery shopping. I usually have a shopping list written before I leave (neatly divided lists for each store that I go to – yes, I am a list-person! I don’t function without lists!), but I also like…
