here is the view of LA from my house

kieran took the picture

i'm on the outs with "blogging"

and keeping up with the blogs that i have liked 

since the summer between sophomore and junior year

i click on them and scroll down and think

blaaaahhh

i meet so many people during the day

hot dad tug boat captains who respond "yeeeep" to all my questions

a woman born without an opposable thumb (!)

longshoremen galore, aka longy's

hairdresser turned longy upon the sudden death of her husband at age 40

over-eager 44 year-old bachelors who want to lend me the book they're reading

bitter teenagers, shy teenagers, funny, outgoing teenagers

stylish grandmas, deaf grandpas

moms who go to work and have two kids under two years old

rad self-proclaimed "hot 55 year old" surfer who said:

 "i don't got a lot of friends out there"

and of course, my precious precious zoe, i love that little girl so much, wow

i have been spending less and less time on my computer

no time for that when you have a real job 

and when you get home you're tired and hungry

and just want to sit at the kitchen table and talk and laugh

or not because sometimes i get home and i am a huge crabapple

last thing that's on my mind is formulating some tra-la-la blog post

about nothing in particular or substantial

kind of like this one 

hehe

fav day

eye spy

what do these pictures have in common?

the creme of all cremes,

the creme of the crop,

la mer.

a note about pic 2: 

MARVIS is the most sorry excuse for a toothpaste ever,

the website is like an annoying fashion statement.

at least it has fluoride in it @_@

and why are people still using manual toothbrushes? are we cavemen?

might as well brush your teeth with a splayed branch from the forest.

first 4 photos: into the gloss

last one: mine, baby

grind

back at it

floss, floss, floss

brush at your gumline

your gums are nasty

today i told a rather unenthused 18 year-old-boy

"you have to floss and even if you floss every day i'll tell you to floss more

so you can't win"

he smiled, he actually smiled.

side note about the last picture: aquafresh is not ADA approved so.....

i thought of my first resolution today:

stop cutting my own hair.

i do an okay job most of the time and you can't even tell

but then there are other times when "bangs" are cut

or the length is just one or two months of growth too short.

so, due to the fact that i have a job career and can afford haircuts

i will be waiting til my hair is at a reasonable length to trim again

and then paying a visit to mariana. 

i love haircuts, i hate bangs so much.

until then i must not get bored while scissors are anywhere within my reach

which is more difficult than it sounds.
