the big floppy hat

YES !!! just add the big floppy hat to my list of must have accessories for the summer. how very southern belle of me to wear it to brunch....

short row short socks

knitting has brought some really fabulous people into my life and for that I am really thankful. I am also thankful that I have completed my first sock using short rows for the heel (instead of that pesky heel flap that can sometimes be entirely too fussy and bulky). and I have also decided that since I am an instant gratification type of girl that I should only knit socks and hats since i sometimes can't be bothered with sleeves and other such nonsense...

political musings...

if i were to ever run for political office of any kind - this would be my platform...

judge me and i'll prove you wrong. tell me what to do and i'll tell you off. say i'm not worth it and watch where i end up. call me a bitch and i'll show you one. screw me over and i'll do it to you twice as bad. call me CRAZY but you really have no idea...

yeah- i'm already thinking of what i would wear to my first day in office, with all the fireworks and the marine corps marching band playing in the background...

but in all seriousness folks.... even if you decide not to vote for me (lol), please get out and vote in this upcoming election. people in our armed forces are out there fighting everyday to give people the same basic freedoms that we as Americans sometimes take for granted. let's not let their sacrifice be in vain (i'm stepping off my soapbox now to go and soak my feet in a nice hot bubblebath)...

too cool to segway...

i was always on the fence about taking a segway tour around the city. but after seeing a segway group today i definitley decided that it is way more corny then i thought. sorry city segway tours, i guess i'm just to cool for you...

morning lover...

the happy clam....

beverages of choice.... coke classic (none of that diet crap) and corona's all around...

meet my lunch date....churchill....he never had a chance - poor bugger.....




memorial day weekend - the first unofficial day of summer. is there anything better then sharing the day with your family while knocking back a few cokes and corona's and chomping down on a few dozen crabs..... i think not my friends....i think not.
