christmas time!

this weekend was one of the most fun i've had in a while!  
christmas eve was relaxing and quiet.  we listened to music and sipped our neighbor's "sweet heart" juice that they made {raw cane juice with spices like tumeric, cinnamon & nutmeg. if you live in l.a. you can visit their shop, raw cane superjuice bar, in hollywood. amazingly good!}.  

i must have slept pretty heavy, because when i woke up christmas morning i found these little elephants in our stockings!  they're technically tree ornaments, but we love them so much we decided to make them our anniversary elephants in honor of our honeymoon in thailand.  



here's the clean "before" photo, with all our packages wrapped up {except for one of chloe cat's toys that she opened already.  it's a pom i made out of yarn.  she LOVES them!}.



and here's the "after" photo.  nice and messy!  {chloe cat wasn't sure exactly where to pounce first.}


we got each other some fun gifts ~ a record, art print, pocket watch necklace {yippee!}, and bath salts that the mr. made for me, to name a few.  oh! plus the apron that carmella got me, which i wore for the unwrapping of gifts plus the cooking of our special christmas waffles & egg gravy breakfast.  i seriously wear it all the time!  

that night we went to a hookah lounge for my best friend's bachelorette party.  apparently snoop dogg {among other celebrities} frequent this joint, but he wasn't to be found on christmas night {insert sad face here}.  we had a lot of fun anyway catching up with old and new friends alike.
  


it was a fantastic christmas for us, and
i hope yours was amazing as well!!

.408 CheyTac Fredo Viola Aug 29, 10:51 AM This is a real bummer to me. I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
