8.24.10 // bubble wrap and packing

let the serious packing commence...sorta.


bubble wrap! it took so much self restraint to not pop it all.


clothes! and i'm not even done folding them...


a hanger escaped ;-p

next step: get it all into suitcases.

8.22.10 // dinner or breakfast...

we got to the 24-hour ihop in canyon country at around 4:30am. i'd been wanting a grilled cheese alllllll night but matt decided that it was going to be breakfast with pancaks.




nom nom nom...

8.21.10 // rocky horror picture ho

lamppost pizza in saugus brings back loads of old memories for matt. he totally owned it while he worked there back in the day. ^_^ their mozarella sticks are bomb and so are their games, apparently...



going to rocky horror every year has been a tradition for the last few years. buttttt...they shut it down at fallbrook so this time i finally made it out to the nuart. it was also matt's first time there, so that gave me permission to be brutal. ;-p








yeah it's supposed to say 'derby slut #11'


there was a bunch of guys looking foxy in drag!

8.19.10 // half-assed proof that i was at magic mountain

magic mountain was awesome. shaina and i got there right as it opened and managed to jam through all the good rides within a couple hours. super hot though, and shoes suck! it really isn't the kind of place where we could take a lot of photos, since you're constantly on the go.







then sjb showed up and we went to bj's with matty, as it is a longstanding valencia tradition.

8.15.10 // take me to a random ball game

notice anything weird?


mine stayed up! haha


there was a softball game going on at central park. matt and i wanted the green team to win because they weren't trying to be derby like the white team, who had fake names.


cutie.


go green! they lost, though. =[

8.14.10 // i am art supplies

i think this is all pretty self-explanatory...







ikea is the coolest place in the world.

8.12.10 // car and mirror art

i pretty much loved everything about the back of this car haha.



and then somehow i ended up with spider and matty, working on editing a scene from 'dead daylight'


outlining it on a mirror. wonderful.


and nice big due date so he doesn't forget ;-p

8.10.10 // japanese snacks are the best!

yum! next to pocky and koala yummies, these are the best.

8.8.10 // there is a parkway named after me

stevenson ranch pkwy! oh man i want it haha.

8.7.10 // happy birthday tanya/goodbye, ari!

so tanya turned 24 and ari is leaving for UNLV very soon. the party that marked these two occasions was pretty epic.


me and emily, who looks fabulous even 33 weeks pregnant!


i love sjb, chester, and steph!


matty makes new climbing buddies wherever he goes...


it was chilly out, the water was freezing, but ari jumped right in.


...and came out fairly quickly.


the wolf pack


model tanya


this took about 20 takes to get right!


matty chillin' with tanya's snake spike.
