Happy Friday, party people! I have another Scotland picture-heavy post to throw up, but in the meantime I’m going to mention a couple things that are making me happy. I enjoy doing posts like this because well, I get warm fuzzies thinking about this stuff. So here are a few things I’ve been enjoying/looking forward to.
I am a big dork for Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I can nearly quote that movie start to finish, and having a beer brewed to celebrate such a silly film just makes me absolutely geeked. I paired the Holy Grail Ale with a Wawa sub last night and it made for a perfect dinner. :) Drinking this might have made me start quoting it on Twitter last night… and Facebook… and to anyone within an earshot of me.
Good hair days! I normally pile the mess of my hair on top of my head and forget about it 90% of the time. Yesterday I let it out of a bun and it looked like this. WHAT?! I wish it could do that every day, but sadly it mostly doesn’t. I do need a trim as it’s not been cut since mid-Decemeber, but I have no idea what to do other than long layers. Ideas?!
Happy art! The walls in my apartment, specifically my bedroom, are quite bare and I need to add some pieces to my collection. I picked up a 9×12 of this from Rue La La yesterday to hang in my bedroom. I figure seeing that will help me start each day on a positive note and maybe the annoying things life tends to throw at a person won’t seem so bad. Plus, BRIGHT COLORS! I can’t wait til it ships!
Random doodling. The other day before heading into the lab, I decided to just do some doodles in a notepad. I haven’t had the urge to do that in a long while and I hope this means my artistic side is coming out of hibernation. The first is of a Twi’lek (hello, Star Wars geekery) and the second is from a webcomic I used to read in my collegiate days (diesel sweeties to be exact). I wasn’t joking when I said I am a Nerd Girl. Seriously. :)
And most importantly, some special people’s birthdays are spreading joy to my little nerdy heart. I’d like to wish a very happy birthday to my beer buddy and fellow Philly girl Jordan and another happy birthday to my mini-me Anna, who of all my sisters looks the most like me.
I will be seeing her later this weekend. :)
What are your plans for the weekend ahead? What’s making you happy lately?
Your hair looks so awesome in that picture. I love when I have random good hair days – which is so rare I can’t even remember the last one. It’s a shame it just can’t always look amazing eh?
I’m pretty good with makeup but I was not blessed with hair skills at all!
My grandma’s tumor being benign takes the cake for me. Your hair is gorgeous!!!
I was so happy to hear that! And thank you!
Your hair is AMAZING. I am so jealous.
A) your hair looks like an Herbal Essences commercial.
B) your birthday shout out is making ME happy!
Aw thank you, Krissie! I love you & had such a great time with you & Jordan last night! Despite wanting to destroy the human race, that robot doodle is so cute! Can’t wait to hang again and at least have internet at my spot so that I can stay in touch better!
Love, Anna
p.s…I’m using your computer so it looks like you commented this!
your hair looks amazing! how often do you wash it? yeah i just get long layers too..not sure what else to do with it? this weekend was a baby shower for my friend and a bachelor party for my little bro that nate went to. today we are both….lazy haha.
I wash it every other day usually. And, I can probably count on one hand the number of times I’ve used a hair dryer this summer. I usually go to bed with it wet and then pile it on top of my head in a mess most days, so how it came out like that I have no idea!
Love the wall art! Your hair looks great
Big week comin up for me, starting a new job! Finally got a job here in Cali.
