Santa Monica, CA

This past weekend I went to the Beautylish Beauty Social in Santa Monica, CA. I stayed at the Lowes Santa Monica Beach Hotel which was right across from the ocean and pretty nice!

This week we finally had our plantation shutters and blinds installed in our house. Sammy isn’t very happy though. You see, before we had the shutters, we had those cheap metal Levolor blinds. He could easily shove them out of his way and sit on the windowsill. In fact he did it so much he broke off about 6 or 7 of them. Now he’s stuck and he’s none too thrilled.

Recently I was testing out my new camera on the super creepy garden spiders which are PROLIFIC in my backyard this time of year. I literally have to walk with a stick in front me me waving it through the air so I don’t run into any cobwebs. SO GROSS! Oh and this one above is now like TWICE this size!


Last weekend I was bored and re-watching Inglourious Basterds on TV. Suddenly I saw something that made me rewind, pause and get out my camera. This close-up shot of Melanie Laurent’s fingernail left me wondering…WTF? Why is it so lumpy and thick looking? Was nail polish supposed to look like this back then, or did she drag her fingernails across some wool while they were still wet? Either way it’s odd!
