Sienna & the Seed Collection

I laid the seeds out to take a photo and Sienna walked over and plopped down directly in the sunny spot.

Here are my seeds for this season, they finally came in the mail on Monday and I planted my Peppers, Eggplant, Marigolds, and a few others on March 10th. 

Compost Bucket

hmm this week.....

Sunday- Kevin decided he didn't like us anymore and moved out. (not really, he only moved in to stay for the month, he/ we just didn't realize how great it was going to be)  I totally spent sunday afternoon doing stupid things around the house (filling in holes/ garden nonsense). 

  Ohh and had an awesome dinner for 11 people at my house. Eggplant Parm., music, apples to apples and garlic bread.  There was supposed to be some BIG LOVE, but I felt bad because Josh couldn't come. *im saving it for him

Monday-   hmmm.  Common was good. 

Tuesday- I really don't know if I did anything too significant..... I fed Jena's cat. Went to WFM with Jenny B. & Heather. Walked home with Johnny. 

Wednesday- Background nonsense at work *House of Blues* , then I picked up stuff at school. Fed Sophie.  Then went home and rearranged my room.  Aaron eventually came over and we watched Girl 27, a semi interesting documentary.  

Dog Park

Kevin, James, me & Sienna at the dog park....

It was an amazing 60 degrees and Kevin's last weekend here so we went to the park and let Sienna get really dirty.

RISK

umm yea so with Kevin leaving and all we had a Risk night on Thursday.....

Jimmy Eat World

@ The House of Blues

I hadn't heard them in at least 3 years, Heather invited me. It was sooo good.

Other than that I finally worked on my files on from Mexico.

I have 7 printed and have 7 more to do tomorrow!

so from 10am-6pm I will be at AIB.

soooooo.....

Heather and I went to the thrift store today and spent over 40 minutes looking at all the books......

Im in such a mood for gardening and ironically I found this Guide to gardening (im not going to say which one) from 1944, which was originally printed in 1935. AMAZING....

The illustrations are what made me really excited.

click on them to see them larger....

From Sunday at the Hartford CT wedding expo.  I felt like an idiot all day. 

Making That MONEY!!!!!

Working at the Foxborough Wedding Expo!

Next Sunday at the Hartford CT Wedding Expo.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!!!

I was so sick on Saturday so Heather and Anthony drove me the Er/ walk in clinic..... So exciting.

My heart beat was 124 and I think I freaked out the doctor..... 2 nurses and the doc. checked my heart beat through out the visit.....

Other than that I'm on Hydrocodone and an anitbiotic. I really hate being sick.

Valentines Day, sort of...

Look at all that RED 

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

On Thursday instead of Saturday!

Everything lately is mas o menos

These sort of suck but I haven't been doing much when I got to see everyone.

Friday afternoon pancakes with Sienna and Heather, after a nice Thursday night out at The Great Scott.

Last Night

Party.... where?

Started off at Brian's in Brighton.... cops showed up

walked back to my house

Then to the Butcher Shop, which was so lame!

+half way to Reedsdale

++++Finally to Hooker Street

Funniest most expected night ever. I knew the second I saw them they were going to start something.

No problem though.... I don't put up with adults who think they are still in high school.

These are the best friends a girl could have.  

(a crew of 15 guys who would snow ball fight anyone for you, seriously....)

Soooo about last night....

It SUCKED!!!!

I'm normally fine with some nights not being that great or exciting, but what the fuck!

This should have been a good time.

Heather, Nate, Brian, Johnny, Joey, Josh....... but no the asshole at Paper with his techno practically cleared the room.

I hate these events, but I manage to have a goood time and I don't normally complain but way to waste 10 perfectly good gold dollars..... thats right I paid with 10 sakajowea coins. 

Whatever, I'll be over it by tonight.

Sienna is still pissed.

On another note, I'm working on my website and my Resume, which I am finding is a lot more difficult than I thought it was going to be.

The Gallery world is a lot simpler than what it is made out to be.... okay thats a lie, I'm scared shitless, it's all about who you know.

Did I mention I saw (in reality I was less than 5 ft. from him in a room of only 10 people) David Hilliard at Carroll and Sons Gallery .... Totally made my day.... I was also at Gallery Kayafas with James Hull, my Professional Directions professor, visiting with Arlette Kayafas, the owner.  She spoke on the do's, dont's, and facts on how she runs her gallery and what an artist needs to know before jumping into the gallery world.  She was great, really informative and down to earth.   

TONIGHT IS FIRST FRIDAY!!!!!

 

I go out on the weekends now.

But I didn't before.....

I used to barely ever go out, friends would come over to my house.  Scratch that my ex's friends would come over to my house, trash the place, and I'd be the one cleaning it up..... every weekend.

Thursday  +  Paper.. saw Seanie for the first time since 2005, met Nate= awesome,

and  was danced on by 3 crazy dudes !

Friday        +  Stripper Party!!!, + sleep over, John, Kyle, & Brandon. Some how we lost Tommy!

Saturday   +  ICC show, + Sunset, + Circus, + party in Allston, + Circus, + after party...... out until 5am 

BEST NIGHT!

Saturday started with just Heather and myself, then we brought Nate with us, then Seanie and his 3 friends, then lost them and got Brandon and Anthony, then got Matt, and then Brian and his friend..... By the end of the night we (Heather, me, Nate, Brandon, & Anthony) ended up at my house, longest night ever.

I am so psyched on having awesome friends.

Everybody wants to be a genius...

Between Inara George playing on my iTunes and the internet attempting to control my brain, I am running on no sleep.

This is the only positive conclusion my web "surfing" led to.....  Derrick Cruz.... but really....

The Selby by Todd Selby kept me busy for hours last night.

Photographs, paintings, and videos of mainly people in different aspects of the art industry.

From the spaces to the people, once I clicked on the Sofia Achaval/ Thibault de Montaigu set I was hooked.

I totally recommend The Selby for anyone looking for a laugh and some inspiration, whether it be style or interior decorating.  

Oooppppsss and I almost forgot about the photography (the main reason I found him) but what I am least interested in now, as collective blurbs about each person they work together, but I am way more interested in  the photographs because of the "things" in each image..... like that art school  statement, Is it an interesting photograph, or a photograph of interesting things....

Old Work, mas or menos....

Some quick scans of some really old work.... Yacov, Martha, y Rich. 

 Ehh, so classes started Monday and I've been debating on what to do about classes and finishing, as this is supposed to be my last semester......

Im not going to worry about it so much because everything always works out some how.

Going back the Patricia White housing will be refreshing, possibly thursday.

So my schedule goes as follow......

Wed. am class/ in the afternoon I'll be at Beth Israel Hospital....ugh!

Thursday midday class..... then party party party.... or not 

Friday...... babysitting 7am-5pm, twin 5 yr. olds and twin 15 month olds!

Today I did nothing really, Tommy lost his keys so he got out of his house and stopped by...

Then we took Brett's car downtown to the library to get the keys...

very exciting stuff

I love thisssssssss...

ohh and Heather moved out temporarily, I'm so bummed. 

Who am I going to make coffee with!?

The Fat Cat & The Sleepy Dog

So it has come to my attention that Taleen, my 2.5 yr old Russian Blue, is insanely obese!

According to numerous fact sheets on cats, of her specific breed, she should be between 7-9lbs.

-As of yesterday Taleen weighs 15.5 lbs.

I feel like the worst parent in the world.... 

Ever since she was spayed over the summer all she does is eat. 

Her food, Sienna's food, Oryan's food!

So starting today she is on a major diet.

As for Sienna....... She needs a bed of her own, I like the one above from Pet Expertise

Too bad they are extremely expensive!

Between the two of them they are extremely spoiled.... 

but what am I supposed to do, I love them <3
