i soooo love this look. simplistic, yet feminine in its own way.

you mad?

dear summer.

it's funny how people long for you even though you always seem to leave with a quickness. i didn't get to do nearly as much as i had planned with you..but that's usually how it ends up between us. i know you won't be far once you leave because your sauna-like humidity willl stay around until the cool weather of fall actually gets here. if you could please clear your heat out as soon as possible it would be greatly appreciated. i am quite ready for fall (i think you call her autumn) to be here as she is my favorite out of all of you.
see you next year,
m.e.

busy..busy..busy

this weekend was sooo crazy! well, not really CRAZY as in things went wrong or something unexpected happened. i mean CRAZY as in there were so many things going on..and i've basically been going non-stop all weekend. i didn't even get my usual amount of sleep this weekend. but i must admit, it was a GREAT weekend!! old friends, new friends, music, dancing, baseball, food...all in all, great fun! as of now, hopefully i have recuperated enough to carry on with this week's normal activites.

here's a couple of pics to sum up the weekend.

it was my little sister's birthday earlier this week...so all this celebration was for her 23rd.

eeeeeeek!!! i love this song! and not for the obvious reasons for which others might; i love the musicality. i have been a HUGE fan of Cee-lo's for some time now. waaay before he even had the idea to form Gnarls Barkley. back when he came out with Goodie Mob. i'll admit i never was just a FANATIC of the group..but everytime i heard one of their songs, his parts/verses always stood out. there's just something melodic about his voice whether he's singing OR rapping. and now..he has a SOLO album dropping December 7th titled The Lady Killer. i don't usually get caught up in the hype and countdown to when an artist's album comes out. but i will say i will DEFINITELY make it a point to remind myself by notes on the calendar, blackberry, and any other way that will help to remind me, to get this one. i must experience for myself what this magnificent artist has to offer.

p.s. the video ain't too bad either!
