rockin' skulls

I've been to so many great shows lately. I went to Method Man on Tuesday and Toro Y Moi last night. Not to mention Jessie Ware, Kate Nash, and Talib Kweli in the near future.

  

I told myself I wasn't going to dye my hair anymore, let it grown out and stay with my "natural" color. But... I feel most myself when I am purple head. Grape kool aid all day.

5 Things I am Love... right now

5. Society 6 "Throw Pillows"
Society 6 has the coolest iPhone & iPad skins. There truly is a design for everyone and anyone. Now they have added "throw pillows" into the mix. You want a pillow with something ironic, iconic or just awesome this is the place to do. I am a massive fan of the Bill Murray one.

4. Mindy Project
I was a fan of Mindy Kaling back in Office days as well as her book "is everyone hanging out without me? (and other concerns)" and I've become a fan of her newest TV. I have to say it's ridiculously stupid and sometimes hard to watch, but that's the thing about comedy now a days. It's all truly hard to look at.

3. Alabama Shakes
My friend turned me onto them after their Saturday Night Live performance which was amazing! Then of course I realized I was already a fan because their song that was featured in Silver Linings Playbook (a great movie by the way...) I just bought their album and it's so ideal to for a silly Seattle February. Not to mention their lead singer Brittany is a sassy lady. Love that!

2. We Killed: The Rise of Women in American Comedy
I bought this book to take on the road with me while I was on tour and it's great! Not even for people like myself who are aspiring comedies, it's just a great read to pass the time on a bus or before bed. Women are fucking funny. Think other wise and you're just mad.

1. The World's Best Ever
The internet is a magical place. But sometimes it's truly overwhelming. I finally found a place where I can get all my news, art, pop culture, street wear, and other random stuff that helps getting through the work week that much easier.

It's been a official week of me being home and so much has happened. A week can a long time.

Now this week is all about getting back to a normal work schedule which is so hard after a month of pure fun. Plus I can smell summer right around the corner. This is the first summer that I am really excited for. I am usually a winter girl, but all my friends being so pumped for it is helping me see the benefits of that time of year.

But for now, it's a chilly but sunny day. So I get to wear my layers.

I can't get over how good it feels to be home. And how I love being able to see everyone I missed.

In other random news I missed someone's birthday so I went shopping at alive & well today. Grabbed them something ideal.

Plus, since I've been home I've been walking on cloud 9. I am so happy and excited about my friends, my family, my life, the freaking weather! I am good.

I how have been running around a lot since I've been back. With work, seeing people, fam-bam, and what not, I am busy but keeping it under control. Today I took a 45 minute spin class. (I know I am going to be sore tomorrow) So I am on that nice work out high.

I don't believe in diets, but I do believe in taking care of your body. I am working on working out more.

  

  

Now headed to get drinks and catch up with my darling kim. Been far too long.

I did a lot of CRAZY shopping while I was on tour. I mean I was in New York, Boston, DC. How could I not? But don't worry; I didn't come home broke.

I bought some fancy "sweatpants" at Topshop. Now, Topshop is super pricey but damn, I love it! I am a guttersnipe, always will be but you know sometimes you just go to Treat Yo Self.

Guess who's finally back on the west coast, in the 206.

It's strange to say, but I am missing the east coast already. (It's only been like a day) I mean, don't get me wrong there were moments I hated traveling but the tour and trip over all was fantastic! I had the time of my life. Stories for days, tales for weeks.

 

But damn! It does feel so good to be home.

Til next time east coast.
