Scenes From My Run.

Promotion Update.

On Monday Bryan started his promotion over at Space 15 Twenty.  Hooray!  He's loving it. And he's getting right to work building walls in the women's section for holiday.  Also, some additional exciting news;  Bryan's creative submission that he did last month is going to be used as inspiration for a company wide upcoming project!  Isn't that awesome?  Perhaps you'll see bits of his ideas at your local Urban Outfitters come January.  I'm so proud of my Bunnie.  He would NEVER tell you these things.  And that's exactly why I'm giving you the scoop.

Bits of Christmas.

This year I wanted to shake up my regular routine for Christmas decorations.  I found that time of day really helps usher more patience and creativity.  I thought of some odd twists to throw in.  Changes I made this year:

• I didn't use the stable.  I took a pop art approach by adding bulbs to symbolize stars and angels.


• My cake stands were stuffed with colorful bulbs.  


• I didn't hang our stockings.  I'm hoping to find some prettier replacements soon. *Everything looks so festive and cheerful.  Do you have your decorations up yet?

Creativity Tuesday: My talented friend Ramsey Robinson.

My friend Ramsey is pretty dang radical.  He's a bartender extraordinaire at the Big Orange, actor, and painter.  He was also the hero who edited my demo reel {here.}  I received an e-mail from Mr. Robinson yesterday regarding his latest artistic offering, as seen above. Many kudos to you Ramsey! If you are in Los Angeles and want to see Ramsey's pieces, head over to Jairo's {here.}  It's odd to think about, but I feel like my circle of friends are creating material for future history books.  And that is quite thrilling.

Silly Observations.

I found this poster somewhere on line and it made me giggle.  Only because I love both literary series with all my heart.  P.S. I look forward to seeing HP7 again in the theaters.

I'm Very Thankful...

I have so much gratitude in my heart right now.  I woke up and doodled some of my favorite things to commemorate Thanksgiving 2010.  I didn't take one picture yesterday!  I had so much fun I forgot-which is so very unlike me.  Yesterday we had dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Beverly Hills.  We dined with Rachel and Court Noble, and Court's parent's.  It was lovely.  We shared an amazing meal, conversation, memories, and later a movie!  Thank you Nobles for adopting the Yazzies.

I'm thankful for.....

1. Religion.  My faith has always kept me centered, grounded, and brought me the true meaning of happiness.  


2. My family.  What a motley crew we are!  Misfits, renegades, minstrels, artists, dreamers.  I love each of you with my entire cardiac chamber.


3. My husband.  We were meant to be together forever.  I'm positive of that.


4. Friends.  Thank you for being the family that I get to choose.  Particularly Amber Leann Ford, Janine Suzanne Doot, and Rachel Noble.  You are ALWAYS there for me when I need you.  I love you as sisters.


5. My passion.  My fancies have come and gone, but since I was four I've always wanted to be an actress.  It remains to be the job that I want to do when I grow up.


6. Living in Los Angeles.  It was a life time pursuit that came to fruition.  I still have to pinch myself that I live here.


7. Pretty clothes. I adore you.  


8. Pets.  Soba and Daphne, you are canines extraordinaire.  


9. Food.  Why are you my joie de vive?


10. Music.  You rock.  Seriously.  Pun intended. 

What are you thankful for?

What I Wore Wednesday: Thankful Hand-Me-Down.

It's Thanksgiving Eve!  I went out to breakfast with a friend this morning at a very chic location.  {I'll be back soon with more exploitation of that little gem!}  It is down right chilly in Los Angeles today.  It truly feels like fall.  And not a moment too soon for Turkey Thursday.  I treasured walking the streets of old town Pasadena today.  The merchants scrambling here and there with last minute touches for their window displays.  Parents toting their children happily in the streets.  Stopping for hot cocoa and cider.  Ahhhh, fall.  I am so in love with you.  **Side note, an old woman in the thrift store told me she loved my outfit.  Which illustrates my theory that I dress like an old woman.
