I couldn’t sleep this morning - I was wide awake at 4:00 and couldn’t get back.  I tried the usual plane crash daydreams but to no avail… so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to start my new regime.
I’d been planning to make some changes this week anyway and was falling behind, so really, [...]

if you’ll believe in anything.

I took a rare week night out with my sis and her husband to go see Wolf Parade at The Marquee in Tulsa tonight - it was the best show I’ve seen in years.
First we stumbled out of the T-storms & tornadoes into “Lola’s,” a dia de los muertos themed tapas bar [...]

It felt like my family and I spent the whole of October celebrating Halloween; or at least celebrating the cool weather and the orange backdrop of fall, as well as out-of-town family & friends coming and going.
Our family loves fall anyway and we always get an early start on the festivities… this year it started [...]

My little sis and I just had one of the best meals in Tulsa (second only to a Fuji meal) at Lanna Thai.  Everything is so fresh and flavorful there! 
I started out with THE best coffee I’ve ever had - their Thai Iced Coffee (super strong, just how I like it, and the white cream [...]

(That title was so Sufjan).
(Let me preface this by saying that this blog post is written with a a few glasses of red wine… I feel so chatty but I’ll pare things down!)
I finally got around to watching The Go-Getter (starring the lovely, dryly humorous, and interesting Zooey Deschanel) and while I haven’t had the time between watching [...]

I decided to figure out what mosaic I was going to do once I got to my 2nd class and saw the colored tiles that I had ordered up close and personal, and once I saw them I know what I wanted to do.  (It was a little disconcerting to see that most everyone else [...]
