I'm losing at this game, no fair, why don't you seem to care

Busy weekend. Friday was shopping research day with my boss. You know me and shop day. It's really overwhelming for me and hard to stay focused for work. Because even one dress, or bag, or song playing in the store, can spark some kind of emotion or story in my head. Then I start thinking way too much, because we hit all the important stores and see so much. By the end of the day, I'm emotionally drained.

Friday night was the Halloween party, and it was so good to see my buddies and people I haven't seen in a long time. I really love them. It's so hard to meet awesome people, but they were all there! I was very happy to see everyone. I dressed up as Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's. Unfortunately, I forgot to wear my sunglasses. Some people mistook my costume for some cracked out prom queen. I mean, really?!

Then on Saturday, I went to go see The Airborne Toxic Event and the 1990s at the Troubadour. Easily one of my favorite venues. It was only my second time seeing Airborne Toxic Event, but they were better than ever and so amazing. I love all their songs. They're amazing live.



1990s were adorable. They rocked it. Jackie makes people smile.


Sunday night, went to see Hot Hot Heat at the Fonda. Since when are cameras not allowed at the Fonda. This venue is slowly starting to move towards the bad list. You know how I am with venues. I couldn't take pics of the opening band, De Novo Dahl, but they were really something. I really like them. So charming, and good songs. Did I mention colorful suits with rhinestones and embroidery? Yeah. Go check them out, they're from Tennessee. And of course, Hot Hot Heat never disappoints!


And can I just end this post by saying today was just another manic Monday. Back at work, I probably did 10 million things today, and I felt like a zombie. Not to mention a few other things that just made it hard to focus. But who wants to hear about my job? Yup, I thought so.
