There’s no furniture, our washer apparently doesn’t work, and I may have caused a small flood in our laundry room…

But my closet is coming along nicely. Priorities!

My “Livin’ Single” days may be drawing to a close. But I assure you that my Cathy comic-esque grocery store purchases will live on.  (Taken with Instagram at Ralphs)

A writer sent me 12 pints of artisanal ice cream as a “thank you for meeting me” gift. Note to writers: My eternal affection is easily bought.  (Taken with instagram)

The beautiful wedding I attended in Atlanta in February is featured on Style Me Pretty today!
Congrats to my friends Nelson & Lisa.  It was such a gorgeous event!  (With probably the best food I’ve ever eaten at a wedding… Southern food + Puerto Rican food = gold.)

I’ve got this first date thing down pat these days.
Uniform:  blazer, brightly colored top, jeggings, heels
Makeup:  applied, but light
Hair:  air-dried but touched up with some sort of curl revitalizer I purchased at Boots on the London trip
Expression:  mid-gum chew
Bar of expectation:  set very low
Off to Date #1 with Bachelor #3…

Reblogging myself, because I am a nostalgic sap so glad I took this picture and recorded this day.

One year ago today I had my first date with my wonderful boyfriend.

2 weeks from now, we’re moving into our first place togther.

Amazing how much can change in a year.

Today is an epic eating day. Part one: Katsu-ya Spicy Tuna salad.  (Taken with instagram)

1918 aerial view, looking east, of a six-way intersection in Beverly Hills. Beverly Drive runs left-right in the photo, crossed diagonally by Lomitas Avenue and Canon Drive.


The 2012 version of this intersection gives me massive anxiety. I think I’d like the 1918 version much better.
