what happened to february?

missed a month but i still love you. promise.

blaaaaaaaah

i hate winter. it makes me feel terrible.
winter is dark, cold, grey, and seems unkind.

luckily i get to pick my own thoughts like flowers. i'm hoping for this result in a few hours.

wild wednesday

take necessary precautions.

precious treasure part II

today i found a whole new hospital...it is not everyday you work at a hospital for 2 years and find out that there is another WING to the hospital, right there, all the time. to be fair - it is mostly offices of doctors that work in the hospitals where i work. but still, i had never been to any part of it! and the name: WEST HOSPITAL.

world, keep the surprises coming!

precious treasure

i walk around the fan like it's my job. i love walking around the fan and have been doing so for about 3 years. i know most of the streets but not all of them. never all of them. and the other day my friend and i went on a walk and she showed me a NEW STREET! what a precious treasure. it is 3 blocks long. it is not hard to get to but not a noticeable street by any means. those 3 blocks look like 1950s/london. it seems idyllic. children play in the road together and leave their toys out. it is oddly peaceful and quiet compared to the rest of the fan. the day after i was exposed to West Ave. i woke up and took a walk to go back and check it out. that was this morning. i decided to take a picture diary of my trip to share with you.

damn the man?

went to kroger late last night because i'd just returned home after a month away to NO FOOD. this simply wouldn't do. as i'm checking out, i put in my kroger id and am congratulating myself on using a fake phone number so the man can't infiltrate my life. then i realize i gave a legit name and address so maybe the man is already in my life. however, as i'm checking out a funny thing happens.,.the machine starts printing coupons JUST FOR ME!!! it is only coupons of things i buy most frequently and thus will definitely use - amazing. maybe i love the man?

3 coupons/most purchased items
1. greek yogurt. duh.
2. coffee creamer
3. grapefruit juice!

creepy computer kroger, i think i love you <3

la la land!

the new year has been full of traveling, family, and sunshine. i'm currently in LA hanging out at my brothers house with lots of arrested development and walks on the beach. yesterday his neighborhood was visited by a cloud and we were enveloped in a thick fog all day. when i walked on the board walk i couldn't even see the ocean which was just a few feet away, when i walked to the shore i could barely see past the breaks. it was wild.


our cousin is coming tonight for her first visit ever to california - i'm glad she's staying with all of us at the beach of the sun. the last time all these cousins were all together was....more than 5 years ago? i'm glad we're making it a priority to chill now, it feels like an incredible choice. i'm ready for an epic weekend.

thanks for the wisdom, pope.


let's be careful with the earth and each other this year. sounds like a glorious adventure
