weekend recap: re-revival edition

so i read my last post and laughed at myself. here i am sick again, smoking again, but at least i really have been creating quite a bit. go me.

friday
-dylan and i did a shoot for johnny lloyd rollins.
-well, dylan shot it, i "styled" johnny and made some somewhat helpful suggestions.
-we visited a cemetary, a pile of rubble, a sex club, and made johnny splash in huge puddles.
-if there's any way to accidentally visit a sex club, it's with your ex and a mormon. totally.
-headed back to plano for a SLEEPOVER with a bunch of boys.
-at this point i should have rested....

saturday
-avoided the greenville st. patty's parade because a) i'm probably too cool, and b) i was still cold from our outdoor photo shoot in 40 degree rainy weather.
-headed to blake and dave's for an afternoon par-tay and enjoyed laughs and food and rock band.
-highlight of the day was when batman (leaving a child's bday party) made me a balloon animal. in his underwear. from his van. it was just as creepy as it sounds.
-sometimes being the only sober person is hard....i don't wanna struggle through a conversation with you if you can't focus your eyes....i think that's fair....
-i actually drank a little, gave up pretty quick, god i hate drinking, i CANNOT BELIEVE how much i used to drink.
-realllllllly should have rested at this point....

sunday
-jon jon arrives and we play and talk shit to each other in that special way that only siblings can.
-head out with alex to the bath house cultural center to see a new piece a good friend shayne had in their natura fragilis.
-the show was AMAZING, lots of really cool art by women, shayne's piece was great as usual, and they had the best snacks i've ever had at an art show. cream puffs, lemon cookies, chocolate swirl pound cake, and coffee.
-then we went to the sold out (!) adele show at granada.
-IT WAS SO GREAT. i cried when she sang 'melt my heart to stone'
-actually i cried a few times, it was really nice.
-still no rest, i had this coming.


some adele for you, if you don't love her yet:

guess what i found?

my old video camera from back in the day. now if i can just find the power cord, i will soon be able to show you footage of berry's 21st birthday, new year's eve 2002, and the beer-lympics (also 2002, i believe). get ready to be embarrassed of your younger self. especially you, bogan. haaaaa.

other happenings, i quit smoking. it's pretty much all i'm thinking about, but i know it will get better. and i can't bear the thought of NEVER again enjoying coffee and cigarettes, so i think i'll still allow myself to have one when the mood strikes. yeah....that always works...

i'm producing a ton of work this year. get excited. cakes, crafts, photo projects, styling, etc. they will be documented thoroughly here. but some of them are secret so you'll have to wait.

my health is better than its been in awhile. i feel GOOD. turns out that vitamins and excercise are freakin magic. who knew? oh, right. everyone.
