Mosey Around London with me!

 

----------Pollocks Toy Museum--------

                                 

its hard to make out but that is a gator chomping on a person. oh and its a toy. for children.

bangers and mash and fishies and chips on the water.

we had no ac- only a rickety fan we had to macgyver with a metal spoon and some tape to keep it from falling over. Our feet hurt so bad we let them air out in the london breeze

I'VE NEVER MET A BEAR I DIDN'T LIKE

BEARS ARE WELL LIKED IN LONDON TOWN

Kimb:"no i just put on perfume."

Time to find a new perfume. Apparently my perfume smells like stinky farts.

thoughts ive had while drinking my morning latte at work

-i want to move back to california before it falls into the ocean
-i hope i don't get sick everyone in the office is sick. i cant get sick.
-this latte was too expensive
-my chair is really hurting my back maybe i should get one of those rubber balls to sit on. i am afraid that would only end in disaster.
-why am i designing another print with birds and stamps?
- my feet hurt, wearing heels to work was a mistake.
-i want to move somewhere warm- seasons are over rated. at least the cold ones are.

birthday celebration

+as usual husby went above and beyond for my birthday. he took me to spotted pig- best burger in nyc.

+next stop broadway- we saw book of mormon- which was by far the best broadway show ive ever seen. despite the fact that it was the only broadway show i have ever seen it was very entertaining for a musical and exceeded my expectations. they sung about explosive doo doo. it was amazing.

+ we capped off the evening at billy's bakery. where they serve the most incredible banana cake. i sure do love banana cake.

that beard is incredible

fresh amazing oysters

best burger in the city-spotted piggy

my $16 sippy cup of bourbon ginger

BANANA CAKE!!!! billy's bakery, you make the world go 'round.

on growth.

Ive recently been meditating on the idea of growth. In New York City it is very difficult to afford a home in the area in which you work. I work in midtown where the average 1 bedroom costs the grand total of one miiiillion dollars. Apartments in my area of prospect heights are anywhere between 500,000 and 1 million dollars.
Traditionally lives follow this growth path: ill start in the middle-marriage, home, baby, another baby, retire. All of these seem so far away. I couldn't possibly imagine the ability to afford a home. $30,000 in school loans and making barely enough to pay that down plus the growing living costs of the city i feel entirely overwhelmed. Things tend to work out for the best but I can't help feeling a little, i don't know, despondent.

bathroom dreams.

my ideal bathroom. gosh i wish my bathroom was not the size of a broom closet.
