People watching at Sweetwater Brewery...
Jen: Oh there are my friends in line!
Me: That girl's dress is so cute!
Jen: Really? Thanks! She's my PROJECT.
Me: Your PROJECT? Does she know?
Jen: Oh yes! She's fully cooperative.
Me: You do great work.

Traumatized
Since 5pm today:
1. A man honked his horn at me & Jen on I-85, then proceeded to "honk his horn" at us if you know what I mean.
2. I went to the Saddest Happy Hour of my life...at a Brewery where they only serve Beer.
3. I spend the entire Sad Happy Hour thinking I had lost my phone. I found it, but am still very disturbed...until then I'd never considered the impact of losing my phone. I barely survived the traumatic texting incident of a few weeks ago.
I feel very vulnerable right now.

Dear Santa
Dear Santa,
I know Christmas is 5 months away, but I have some things I really need before then.
1. A new iPod. Mine died. And you really can't expect me to endure 5 months of workouts without music to keep me motivated. Otherwise you'll have to bring me a new wardrobe a couple of sizes larger come December, and that's going to be really bulky in your sleigh, what with all the other stuff you'll be carrying. So it's really preventative measure.
2. Tickets to Britney at the Staples Center Sept. 23, 2009. I mean, that's not really something you can save for a stocking stuffer. Time is of essence.
3. One of those big, bling-y Juicy Couture key chains. See, I have this new job where I walk around with all kinds of keys all day, so the keychain is sort of like part of my outfit. It needs to make a STATEMENT. Plus, my regular keychain is full.
It's not asking for a lot, and it might make your workload a little lighter come Dec. 25. Its a win-win! Also, L.A. has the same weather all the time, so it will even FEEL like Christmas when you come.
Let me know what kind of cookies you want. I'll be waiting!
xoxo,
April

Safety Memo
Dear Pedestrians,
First, let me applaud your efforts to Save the Earth, Fight Obesity, Reduce America's Dependence on Foreign Oil, or whatever other noble causes inspire you to choose to walk, bike, rollerblade, or skateboard rather than drive around the streets of Hollywood.
But I feel I must warn you. This has not been a good driving week for me, darlings.
Highlights include recieving a $50 parking ticket (expired meter, 2 minutes too late, but what do they care? The city of L.A. has an important memorial to pay for people! They need the funds!). I also rear-ended a MERCEDES. In the SAME DAY.
Also, I am blonde, a woman, easily distracted by shiny objects, fond of singing/dancing with the radio in my car, and am at the mercy of my blackberry at all times.
So be forewarned. This not the week to jaywalk in front of me or walk out at a 4-way stop. I cannot be trusted with your personal safety.
Xoxo,
Me

Matchey- Matchey
So most of you know how I feel about exposed bra straps. Especially now, when Victoria's Secret has introduced this bra, there is really no excuse. I know we all have little slip ups (0r slip-outs, as it were) every now and then, but today I saw something totally new and it really concerns me.
Exposed Bra Straps with racerback tank. STRAPS. MATCHED. her hot pink skirt. I am not making this up yall. HOT PINK. MATCHING. BRA STRAPS. are not an accessory!
Dear, dear, dear. Oh, my. Oh my. Please make it stop.

Runyon Canyon
In the absence of my beloved Piedmont Park, I've found a substitute in Runyon Canyon. It's not quite the same, but charming in its own little California way.
I was invited to go "hiking" at Runyon Canyon. This is quite possibly the first time my name and "hiking" were used together in a sentence. Hmmm, I had heard that hiking was quite the "in" thing to do here, but unsure if it was for me. Did I need to wear a backpack? Bring "gear"? My friends assured me that yes, in fact, I could wear regular workout clothes and be fine with just a water bottle, and so I agreed.
That day I learned several things:
1. "Hiking" means walking up a really big hill.
2. It's a really AWESOME view from up there.
3. I am much better at going up hill than downhill. Is that weird?
4. Apparently it is OK to go "hiking" in a string bikini top.
