Today is my day!

So on my way to work I opted for the radio. Louisville's WFPK. It's a radio station with actual disk jockies who select the music they play. Miracle of miracles!! So on the way to work they played Beck, I can't remember which song anymore, and when I got to work I wanted to hear the rest of the song, so I quickly turned on the radio. It was over but Elvis Costello's Useless Beauty was on. Then they played Old 97s, Feist, Van Morrison ...the good stuff. And just a few minutes ago they playe Half Acre by Hem.

It's musical mayhem!!! I might start to hyperventilate...... in a good way. WooHoo!

Holy Hail Mary!

Recoleta, originally uploaded by hundreds of sparrows.

This was taken in Argentina at the Recoleta (where Evita is buried). The entire place was really intense and I think this really captures that.

Also, by the way, I took zero pictures while I was camping. That's a big goose egg. Someday I will have pictures of the big south fork. It's just too pretty not to.

Yesss!!!

Yesss!!!

My only regret in Argentina is that I didn't try one of these. Ok, that's a lie, my biggest regret in Argentina is missing the night we went to a milonga (sp) which is a tango club. My silly back gave out. But a close second regret is definitely not eating one of these little mofos.

Headed Camping

This weekend me and a ton of other people are heading up to the Big South Fork. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Me, C., Stephanie, and Maggie are going kayaking as well. I'm so excited! Soon there will be photos.

Other news:

Check out Maggie's blog. She has the best halloween post ever.

The Scoop makes me really happy, especially because they reminded me about OplusD.

My new favorite blog.

Argentina's McDonalds

McD's

So, If I got puffy sleeves and cute McAss jeans, I'd work at McDonald's! The burgers are actually burgers too...they are really good. We wanted to compare something that is standard here in the states. I think it's sort of fun to check out fast food (if only once) in other countries because it's always just a little different.

Tag!! I'm it.

Ok, so I've been tagged by Maggie and Rebekah. It was no surprise to be tagged by Maggie because well, I know her and see her pretty much every day...ok maybe every other day. I don't want to brag, but you should be jealous because she's great. Man am I rambling because my point is that it was exciting to be tagged by Rebekah because I don't know who she is and someone is really reading my blog?!?!! Thanks Bekah!

Ok, so here are the rules:

The rules:

Write 7 random facts/habits about yourself on your blog.

Choose another 7 people to get tagged and list their names (then make sure you go to those people's blogs to let them know they're "it").

#1 It's going to be somewhat easy to come up with six more random things about myself after this but what will be very hard is tagging 7 other people. I don't get to spend much time on the internet so I don't read that many blogs (this is really because of my job, not because I don't want to read blogs), so if you get tagged it's because I hunted you down and like your blog....which probaby means you are fantastic. (pat on back) I'm a pretty good judge of character.

#2 I don't have cable, but I get about 11 channels. At night for some reason ABC has subtitles. In Spanish. I can't figure out why, and I can't turn it off.

#3 I just spent a week in Argentina with my beau. It was pretty amazing. If I ever get my act together I'll blog about it. Some things you should know: The busses will take off even if you only have one foot in the bus. They don't clean up much of the dog poop off the sidewalk. Look Out! Eat Beef.

#4 My grandmother was in the Zeigfield Follies. She was so beautiful and told the best stories about broadway. I have always wanted to have a show displaying some of her vintage clothes and do lots of "flapper" artwork. It hasn't happened yet.

#5 I have a hard time getting myself to be productive outside of work hours....that show I just spoke of...it might be a long way off.

#6 Despite what I just told you, I was double majored in Architecture and Interior Design...and took as many fine art classes as I could fit in. This ended up being Foundry, Foundry, printmaking, and Foundry.

#7 I make bronze and aluminum baby dresses. They are great. I have one for sale at etsy....

Dang! That was way easier than I thought it would be (even if I said it would be easy...I had doubts). I'm going to go ahead and post this and will tag people later. Yah, I'm lazy.

The Hectivity!

So, it's been a minute since I've been here. I've apparently been tagged by Maggie and Rebekah. Who knew people were reading my blog. I'm at work on my lunchbreak, so my listio will be a few minutes away (read minutes as DAYS).

Since my last post I've Finally been kayaking, and I've been to Argentina. Yes, I said Aaarrggggentina! As soon as life gets back to normal and my bags get unpacked I'll be talking all about it on here.

Later yo!
