what i did on my summer vacation

090606

1.) unexpected short hair cut + hot summer nights = very tall bedhead in the morning! so sexy hot.

2.) the heat agitated my sweat-susceptible wrists, making computer work painfully uncomfortable (and sticky) against my desk – partial reason why i closed up shop for most of the summer, couldn’t work under those conditions!

3.) summer footwear has taken an awkward and embarrassing toll on my left foot proving once again to be THE SUMMER OF THE BUNION. fortunately, we are only weeks away from IT being tucked safely into a cottony sock until next year.

4.) i discovered pre de provence soap, h&m, the magic of peet’s coffee, alta plaza park, nathan oliveira, and raisin bread – but not all at once – it takes an entire summer to appreciate such a list.

    i am home! yup steven | 4:09pm on 9/12 kristin, yes, i am still in russia. how nice of you to remember! we decided on another year. the school here is great and we love the kids. we where home all summer (california) before heading back. ao | 9:09am on 9/12 dude, stevo, i am so stoked you are heading home!! give me a call when you get there! tommy | 6:39am on 9/11 yay for steve!!! we're so happy that you're on your way home! please let us know when you're in. jaime - was nathan oliveira an older man? i think you will love pre de provence soap. it's the best soap! ao - thanks for stopping by! it's been awhile since i last spoke to you. are you still in russia (was it russia or another country)? jennie - i'll give you my hair if you give me yours. steph - when you guys visit next time we'll go to h&m. it opened last year in union square. yup! kristin | 5:07pm on 9/10 yay, kristin's back! and i happen to love the 'do. honestly. this post has made me realize i love all things french (most of our house is decorated in vintage french), i have no idea what h&m is, i too have had a very sweaty summer (but i have spent most of the summer super duper pregnant), and i am one of the few who doesn't like peet's coffee. their chai tastes like robitussin. oh yea, and gabe had a guitar student named nathan oliveira. i don't know who your nathan is, but i thought it was quite weird that you discovered him..... :) jaime | 6:06pm on 9/9 wow, its been a while! i love reading your site, so glad to see you back. ao | 4:23am on 9/8 from someone who gets to view the short do everyday, let me tell you it's hot. jennie | 5:41am on 9/7 forgot to mention, glad to see magbliss up and running agin. my, how i have missed it! yup steven | 7:06pm on 9/6 lovely pic, where is that at, your new house? h&m is the bomb, by the way. they have them all over the place in germany, not where i am now though. 'stephanie' (if that is your real name), could we not steal the "yup"? hmmmm? well, ok, you can use it. yup fo' sheezy! steven | 7:04pm on 9/6 ooh, h&m is wonderful. i'm glad to hear that they have stores in the us too. that would have been another downfall about moving back to the states. yup! stephanie | 3:03pm on 9/6 hmmm...well, no pics as of it. i suppose i could manage one if there is a good hair day available. i'm not too crazy about the 'do though - this may be a tough request for me to accommodate. i'll see what can be done. kristin | 5:21am on 9/6 so any pic of your short hair? a visible one that is.. ;) love peet's coffee too! erika | 1:19am on 9/6
