"The other main qualm people have with "Gilmore Girls" is the "fast talking." And well, if you can't get used to that, then maybe this show's not for you. So, fair enough."

a quote from an entire article about why you should love gilmore girls. it's all true.

my fave blog - the (never home)maker is back in action today! hooray! they've been on sabbatical for a few months. meh. does this make me a dork?

after the (joe's) wedding, i am getting my hair cut - a lot. and getting a tattoo. those are my goals for the summer. and to keep running. i think i'll like it.

tomorrow, i'm going to bake something. joy the baker's blog :: love & sugar :: inspired me to do so. (there is also a reciple for gluten free coconut waffles on their i'm interested in...) i'm also going to do laundry & for serious clean my bedroom. i slept on the couch two nights in a row because my clothes and mail have taken over my bed. this is unacceptable (after tonight). and if i'm lucky i'll walk the bridge before yoga, but let's not get carried away.

wednesday, i'm off again (tuesday is my first day off... two in a row - what a lucky girl i am!). i am going to pick up my bridesmaid's dress from the alterations place. and have a fro-yo date with meg. and go to zumba. and maybe sit in the middle of my (hopefully) clean bedroom.

oh. i got a plant. a chocolate mint plant. i promise i'm going to try really hard not to kill him.

coffee + apple products + sunshine = life.

one of my managers gave me a very compelling reason to switch to verizon & drop a whole bunch of cash on a white iphone 4 ... because then i'd have a white iphone 4 and that's awesome. i think it's a valid point. hm.

sometimes using photobooth makes me feel like i'm creative.

sometimes, you need to step outside, 

get some air, and remind yourself of who you are 

and who you want to be. (via free people)

people always ask what's next?

why? i feel like asking what your next step or place or idea is negates your present state ... makes it a little less important ... but then again what's next is a question of ambition. so which is more important? your blossoming present or your ambitious future? how do you balance the two?
