blah blah

gosh...it has been such a blah day.  i didnt sleep well last night.....crazy dreams all night long....and i guess i didnt get much sleep.  usually i snap out of the sleepy funk about mid-morning, but not today.  ive been randomly nodding off all day.

anyone else had this problem today? sorry this post isnt the least bit entertaining, but i felt the need to put something down.  ill do my best to be more lively tomorrow.  ill leave you with a fun photobooth pics from this weekend (via the "Pocketbooth" app on my phone)

wishlist:wednesday

ive been looking at alot of summer stuff....esp since our 4 weeks of winter-ish weather is now past and the 80+ degree weather is here.  time to put away

the sweaters (very sad for me because i LOVE sweaters)

here are the things im crushing over this week

this super cute "saddle bag" from Alloy.com

this classic Mickey Mouse watch on Amazon

this super cute tunic dress (how cute would that be with a big brown westerny belt?)

also from Alloy .  i might cave and buy it...its on clearance and may not be available much longer (esp in my size)

 and i want this in a large poster format for my stairwell.  its done by Shepard Fairey....and its freaking awesome! i have a wall in my stairwell that is two storys tall and a large poster of this would be awesome! dave found this pic and sent it to me...i have no idea where to find it....but i want it.

i think thats all for now.  anything you've been eyeballin' lately?

im going to do today's entry on

Cake - Showroom of Compassion

(their new album)

what can i say.....i love Cake.  this album did not disappoint at all!!!

im really digging "Long Time", "Mustache Man", "Easy to Crash."  Their sound is the same....its still very Cake, but stightly fresher....in a good way.  i dont know what else to say about it....its a great album!  if you are a Cake fan you will definately love it.  its available for $7 on iTunes (non deluxe version)...or if you want an extra song and video its $12.

let me know what you think

if there is a band/songwritter you think i should check out or feature let me know...im always open to new stuff.

iPhone 4...out with the old and in with the new

this weekend i was finally able to retire my sad little iPhone 3G and upgrade to the iPhone 4.

and i couldnt be happier.  dave and i have been anxiously awaiting the time when we both had the 4 because of the face-to-face calling (where ever wifi is available).   since we live on the other side of town from each other...and our schedules...we dont really get to see each other until the weekends.  now, thanks to technology we can see each other every night!

we tried this for the first time last night....its so cool.  i know i know...its not that big of a deal to most people but its super cool for us.

here is a pic of us being goofy and doing a brady bunch style photo.  side note: im really not orange...its the lighting in my room.  it was so much fun to be able to see his face while we talked on the phone last night.  i cant wait for the day when you dont need to have wifi to do this.

has anyone else tried this yet? i wanna hear

ooo...hot water bliss

today was a long but glorious day.  

i havent had hot water for a while....i wont say how long but trust me its been a very long time.  today the nice men of Abacus Plumbing came by and installed a new hot water heater.  i cant describe how happy...elated....overjoyed i am.  they arrived at 8:30am and by 4pm i had hot water.  

what was the first thing i did with my hot water?  loaded the dish washer.  has anyone out there had to wash your dishes with cold water and then do the dip in boiling water?  it takes forever and you almost always come out with burnt fingers.  i wont miss it.

i will be taking a lot more long baths...thats for sure.
