I work from home, and have a one-year-old (holy crap, can you believe I have a one-year-old?) and as a result, I spend most of my time in lounge-wear. (Who am I kidding? In college I bought a bunch of those juicy velour sweatsuits ~ except they weren’t juicy, they were the Rampage knock-offs ~which I referred to as my… Read more →
Month: October 2010
Home Again
Thursday night we finagled a night off out of my parents and snuck out to the Hotel Cafe where our friends Alex and Angela {aka The Damnwells} were kicking off their month long residency. It was awesome. I was a fan of Alex’s before we ever met, introduced to his music by one Ryan Reynolds (oops, sorry, dropped that name,… Read more →
Finally, a punching bag for my design lust.
Since I seem to like to spread myself thin like peanut butter and jelly lately (actually that’s a complete lie, I like to spread my PB & J thick and gooey) I’ve joined up doing a once-a-month Nursery Style post for the newly launched and super awesome Kidlet! My beloved Miss Mandy of Harper’s Happenings launched this daily dose of… Read more →
Under foot.
That’s our house. Well, technically we share it with these two lovely Spanish dudes named Reuben and Ramon. It’s a duplex (like a house that’s split in two) and it was built in 1965 by a pair of architect brothers who married sisters and lived side by side in their little slice of heaven in the Valley. The place is… Read more →
Have your cake and eat it.
Last week, it happened again. Days went by, and I didn’t know which one we were on any more. And while that Grover video made me laugh the first time I saw it, that monster’s mug has been on top of my site for so long now that I’ve begun fantasizing about punching that little bastard’s blue lights… Read more →
The Monster Your Monster Could Smell Like.
How Big is Delilah?
Hi. I’m Delilah Georgie. Tomorrow, I will be one year old. You know how you can tell? Because of my super fancy big-girl gladiator sandals. Seriously. Check these bad girls out: {And don’t they make my legs look shapely? And isn’t it awesome how my parents gave me the WHOLE ENTIRE LIVING ROOM for my playroom? Who needs grown up… Read more →
Breastfeeding Sucks.
We never had a problem getting her to latch. There was never an issue with supply. The girl has been crazy for boobie since I squeezed her out my lady bits, and I’ve hated {almost} every second of it. Not at first. When she was first born and they handed her to me and she started rooting I wanted to… Read more →
Absolutely Fabulous
My favorite purveyors of fabulous stationery, FABULOUS STATIONERY, has taken up residence here on The818 with a {fabulous} sidebar ad, and since I’m so excited to see their pretty pictures up on my site again, I thought I’d take a moment to point them out to you {fabulously}. They’ve just opened up their 1$ card shop, where you can purchase… Read more →
Flashback: T-Minus 1 week.
LOW RIDER {originally published October 1, 2009} Normally, I like to keep my belly self-portraits confined to the belly, but this week, in hopes that it will be the last picture I take, I thought I should record myself in all of my swollen glory – my engorged nose and sausage fingers are providing plenty of fuel for my raging… Read more →
