Some More Lemon, s'il vous plait


Two years ago, my co-worker R drops by my cubicle and asks if I'd like anything from Monteal, he was going to spend Christmas in Canada, and thought I might want him to bring a Lululemon back with him. Given that I didn't know what it was, I headed straight to my oracle, google, and googled it. Athletic clothing store, specializing mainly on yoga wear, I liked what I saw online, but I wasn't going to ask him to bring anything back with him, after all, he was my co-worker, and some borders must remain untouched in the professional sphere.

..Of course, that was before I really knew what Lululemon was.

On my trip to LA last summer, I walked by their store in Beverly Hills, and because I had been carrying so many bags around, and it was near closing time, I grabbed one of their crops and bought it without trying it on and stormed out of the shop, I did however promise myself to return next day for a more thorough look at their collection and items. Needless to say, I never managed to find the time to go back, it wasn't a priority because somewhere in the back of my head there's always been this assumption that I could, still, find anything on the internet, and that when I'm back home, I would be able to place an order online.

Little did I know.

As it appeared, lululemon doesn't do e-commerce, they think it's too impersonal (says who?), and they prefer personal communication (yeah, what about those who live on the other side of the globe? e'hum, me for instance). Well, for all the other Me's out there, here's a delicious piece of news: WWD published that Lululemon is finally going online with their sales.

Yaaaayyyyyyy!!

*running around in endless circles*

Double Yay!

More good news, on the personal side, well, I'm back to my ballet points. I am still unable to stand enpointe though, but that's okay, it's a looooong leap of progress of my Morton's Neuroma rot which has pretty much kept me off of standing on my toes for any reason for the past year. After 2 steroid injections, and plenty of foot-muscle strengthening exercises and pilates, I'm able to now to insert my feet into my ballet points, take a few steps, and plie for a few seconds, which is great for the time being because for a while there, I thought I'd never be able to do that again. To be honest, I still don't know if I'll go enpoint without a surgical intervention, but for the time being, I'm happy with my progress.. As my french dressage trainer would say petit à petit =)

The Carla Bruni Effect
Having a soar throat on work days is a pain. I spent most of my after-work time in bed, too tired to do anything else, barely dragging the derrière to my pilates sessions and visiting Sultan & IB at the stables. Yesterday, however, I woke up in the morning feeling like I was in cosmic bliss {for no apparent reason}, I fluttered around my room tip-toeing and turning in circles {again, for no particular reason}, got dressed & grabbed my 'hurro kity' tea mug & run outside of the house to head to work.

Yesterday I also had my first voice over experience. Someone in our company decided that my voice would sound good on massive speakers for an event we've been working on for the past few months, what he didn't see coming -of course- is the husky Carla Bruni-ish voice courtesy of the soar throat. I stood there in the recording studio re-hearsing my Arabic & English lines over & over again with different tones: The 181 operator tone, Emirates Airlines tone, Aljazeera news tone, etc lol -- It was kind of fun, but I feel absolutely silly speaking to an audience of zero, and instead, I sat two of my colleagues in front of me & multiplied them in the mirror of my mind to make a room full of people... eventually, the tone became just right ;p


I had spent the two days before tweaking a financial model for a concept I know like the back of my hand, & it gutted me so much that the business model wasn't working the way I had hoped for it to do. With the assumed figures, the company would break-even in its 4th year of operations -not so tempting ;( After re-shuffling the numbers & tweaking a few things here and there, I managed to break-even after 2 years, which is not bad at all, but Im still not very happy about the assumptions built in the model. All I want to do is have one GIANT screen that would fit ALL the numbers at once, super optimized research oracle that would give me actual market figures and statistics, ..and well, put my manager on Silent Mode for the time being, until I've fully worked out the numbers to match the ever-so-evolving concept.

But you and I know that isn't happening, so for now, I'll just zip it, throw my opinions in the back burner, & work like a Chinese call-center girl: "Yes sir, No sir, Three bags full sir."

+++ +++ +++





Deep-purple for the cadillac/reformer, mauve for the step-barrel, and bubblegum pink for the combo chair <3


The lighter very-pale-purple shade is the color of the walls of my studio


On a much brighter note, the leather swatches of the perspective pilates equipment have finally arrived, & I think I have a favorite set of favorites ;p

I'm also on the lookout for thick yoga-mats for outdoors, in case I opt for outdoor wood flooring, & I'm thinking these ones would probably make the cut, or the Ashtanga yoga mat, about 1/4" thick -- & the color blends well with the the studio colors. How come we don't have a SweatyBetty store in town?

The Pilates Heroine
The most recent project that I have undertaken has does not require feasibilities, business planning, and financial forecasting; it's NPV is the sum of all expected future cashflows benefits, and it's rather colorful & brings me that heart-tickling feeling coupled with extreme impatience.

The plan is to convert half my painting studio into a home pilates/yoga studio, which has a patio outside that would be p-e-r-f-e-c-t for Surya Namaskar-ing and half-mooning under the beautiful horizontal sun of early mornings {alright, maybe work-days excluded, but nevermind that lol}

Over the past couple of days, I came up with this preliminary floor-plan of the studio and the patio, & even though it would take about 2 weeks for the equipment to arrive, I rose at the first break of the sun and headed to what would become the yoga patio, spread my mat on the not-so-squeaky-clean floor and posed into my favorite positions <3
it. felt. SO. good.


Why a pilates studio at home?
Well, as much as I think team-work is important to the keep up the spirit for sports, I've always had problems synchronizing my training schedule with my trainer(s) of preference at the gym, apart from the seemly common expectation to return social grace attempts and gestures by having a conversation with the person next to you while gasping for breath. Not fun.

For now, the items I'm going for are:
- Wunda Chair
- Cadillac/Reformer combo
- Jump surface
- Spine corrector barrel
- Foot Corrector {desperately needed}
- Magic Circle
- Roller
- Box
.. and other smaller accessories as per my instructor's recommendations who's -by the way- even more excited than me =D







I have no patience, & could hardly contain the excitement =D

I'm Lovin' It®




Yesterday, the first episode of the new TV Show Lipstick Jungle aired. It would be worth saying that this show comes from the same script writer of SATC, my favorite show of all time <3 & I must that that I'm quite thrilled that SJP won't be playing a role in this one; and instead, Brooke Shields would be the main character. Not that I dislike SJP, but for some reason I felt that she's the one to blame for bringing SATC to an end. She probably did not want to be type-casted as Carrie Bradshaw for the rest of her filming career, & towards the fifth & sixth seasons she seemed to have become mOre & more "let's do this & get it over and done with" kind of a person. Plus, I think that although Brooke Shields career prior to this one was in less than stellar conditions, she would be great for this role. I've searched for the show on iTunes but it doesn't look like they have it yet >_<;

Surfing away from TV Shows to fashion: my new HOT & MUST HAVE AT ANY COST item is a Mantra Scarf! I've come across Mantra Scarves a while back, they're induced with vibrant colors & Sanskrit/Tibetan scripture which serves well my fascination with the 5000 year old traditions of yoga, shaven heads notwithstanding, of course. What can I say? I'm addicted like that, except that I don't think anyone stocks them here in the Emirates, & the high barriers of remote search in India would not have my quest ticket stamped "fast track", so I'm thinking it might be a lot easier to find myself a nice scarf that I like & have a mantra of choice hand embroidered on it, non? ..Naturally, the next question would be: what should that mantra be? =>

The lack of posting over the past couple of days was courtesy of a fever. Spending plenty of time in bed isn't particularly my thing, but I drowsed off into deep, deeeeep sleep on several occasions, I would wake up thinking that I had slept for a few minutes only to discover that they were hours. Not a nice feeling if you ask, but the good thing is that it didn't last long & it has subsided by last evening so I picked up & decided to go bareback riding & screaming McDonnald's catchie phrase I'mmmmm Lovinnnnn' it!

I decided that it is going to become my new phrase ;p

Out of Battery










finished product ;p


*tears of joy streaming down her face* -- I'm FINALLY able to get the moroccan tea recipe right!! My very own recipe!!! & I've been making everyone have it just about every afternoon *lol* Yey! So excited!! Haha


You know what's really weird?
Sitting in a room with other people sitting & reading your blog & that's exactly what's happening now >_<; My cousins are sleeping over tonight, & it's fun =>

Anyways, apparently my MacBookah will need to have its charger replaced, so this entry won't be long.. Initially, I intended to jot down my thoughts on the Mind Feng Shui quote I posted earlier, but that won't happen as I only have a couple of minutes before my MacBookah dies ;(

My day started with yoga-ing outdoors, AMAZING! Its been ages since I yoga-ed outdoors, & although the weather is not at its best, I loved the coolness of it, but now I'm just starting to get fed up with it. This afternoon, I went to take my pony for a walk in the garden, I've been doing this quite often as I've noticed that he has a tendency to freak out & jump at just about everything, which is NOT good.. So I'm starting to get him used to going out of his comfort zones: his box & his paddock. Why, you ask? Well, I've booked a professional portrait photo shoot for the two of us, & I want it to take place in the garden.. and I DON'T want him to send the photographer & the screw running *lol*



I love his mane <3




*heart heart heart*


As random as this may sound, but, my cousin & her sister are insisting that I watch Fifi Abdu on TV now, & I'm thinking: I have less than 2 minutes left on my laptop before it dies! Fifi Abdu is the LAST thing on my mind now >_<;

Having said that, it'll prolly take me a minute to publish this, so I better sign off now ;p Lotsssss of love coming your way & have a pleasant evening everyone xx




p.s. I know these are no high-heels, not peep-toes nor pointy, but they're über cuuuuuuute & irresistible, what do you think? I would so pair these with a cotton dress a la summer beauties <3

For The Sweet Toothed
























Seeing friends after work during week days is not a bad idea at all. I often push social gatherings with friends, family, & acquaintances forward to the weekend because during work-days, I could never predict what time will I be back home & hence I may -or may never- be able to make it on time. Time uncertainty didn't get in the way of our gathering yesterday though, I came back home at 6:00 & were coming over at 8:00.. I barely had time to put anything together {coming from someone who spends 2 hours in the shower - literally!} I knew exactly how I wanted the girlie setting to be, but at the same time, I didn't know {get it? i know i just confused you mOre Haha} -- The point is, flower arrangement & table setting are like making a painting, you know the colors you wanna use, you know there feel you want to create, & when you start your painting; you really don't know what the final result would be.

The evening was a vibrant painting, a coalescence of beauty infused with prettyful colors in prettyful strokes.. Claude Challe played in the background, & although there were barely any moments of silence and laughter deficits; my heart oscillated like a pendulum between the grandeur pleasure of the evening, & the heart-sinking feeling of having to wake up early in the morning the day after.

I rose like a headless hen this morning, missed out on my surya-namaskar & skipped breakfast, snatched a cup of tea on-the-go & frrrrrrrrrr-ed out the door. I made it 15 minutes late to work, I felt guilty.. for like, 5 seconds.
Verdict? a friends get together in the middle of a working week is worth it. SO worth it => *mental note: do this more often*

Eid, Dorothy, & Cravings: Which's what?
I think the best thing one can do on Eid is travel. Having said that, Eid also happens to be the only time I get to see my indirect family {i.e. aunts, cousins, etc} ~ so I often make a point of gluing myself to my phOne & go through my phone book contacts one by one for sms's & calls at times.
This Eid however, it was different.
I had gone to sleep the night before like the dead, ..I couldn't remember much -- the last thing I remember was that my hair was wet, & telling G that I'm too sleepy to go dry it, & that I would get up and do just that in a few minutes. Well, I didn't. I passed out with my bedroom lights still on & only put them off at 5:00 am before curling back into bed again.
The morning was spent amongst family, slowwwwwly devouring foods of all sorts, I was full.. completely full, but I still had an appetite of a horse. Honestly, I missed having breakfasts & not secretly praying under my breath that my tummy wouldn't growl in the presence of my co-workers at the office >_<; I missssssed sipping my fortnum & mason elderflower green tea at random hours of the day <3 & stopping by Galler for a cuppa! But most of all, I missed a *propper* lifestyyyyyyle! ..my pre-ramadhan system I had in place of early sleep, early rise.. surya namaskar-ing & riding every morning before going to work <3 ~ I am now hugging my yoga mat with tears of joy, & lotsssss of promises of abuse >=]

This Eid I didn't make any phone calls, nada. None. Zip! This ties back to my new found philosophy of doing what feels right in the realm of the here & now. Horses occupied my mind the whole morning, a specific one to be precise, so I had to ditch the protocols and formalities of today & do what felt right then & there: I took off & went to his stable with Madeleine Peyroux singing away
..I'm allright, I'm aaaallll right..

You know what else I'm totally loving right now? This: & this: Yesssss, I'm getting in the spirit for Paaaarissssss =>

Latest fashion craving:
#01. Perfectly perfect ruby dorothy shoes <3 I've always had a *thing* for red shoes, I was looking at some baby photo albums stacked in my mum's room & notice that in almost awl of my baby photos throughout my teenage-hood I've been wearing red shoes irrelevant of outfit color, I called them Dorothy shoes *lol* Consequently, at the moment, i'm in the hunt pour quality Dorothy shoes, for Paris *blush* {no blue-check outfit}


Me, several months old {Okay, overlook the fat please lol}


Me, several years old {Yoga in heels? lol}







#02. Chrostian Dior style trés chic off-white extra extravagantly exaggerated organza shirt =>




#03. /\/'s gorgeous orange kelly bag *gulp gulp* {mashaAllah x1000}

#04. Agent Provocateur opaque hold ups in fuchsia and purple

#05. Bubble dresses <3



#06. Baby pink imperial-waist winter coat --this one i've been craving for a whiiiiiile.. still no luck ;( *sob sob sob*

#07. Hat nets! OMG HAT NETS! <3




*yaaaawwwwwns* ~ it's time to recharge my beauty sleep <3 nightie night everyone & sleep tight & have a gorrrrgeous tomorrow xx

Love Flutters By


Olive oiled & balsamic vinegar-ed toasted fwench baguette




Say cheeeeeeeeeese <3


fancy some egg white sandwiches?


Orrrrr smoked chicken breast with fresh homemade pesto?


A flare of pink in our kitchen table setting tonight ;p *e'hum, clears throat*


I bought these napkin rings especiiiiiiialy for my dad *lol* ~ he loves camels, so I thought I'd bring a camel at hOme ;p






sushi boat dinner sometime last week


Ebi <3


Did I mention how much I loooove ebi tempura rolls? with lotsssss of wasabi, lotssss of soy sauce & sweet-sour topping <3


& i've recently been soooo addicted to cinnabon's mini-bons, I could devour a whole box & still be hungry for mOre



One of the maaaaaany reasons why I love my parents & brothers {especially Abdulla when it comes to this part} is for the ego massage I get when I assume the role of Martha Stewart at hOme -- I love making new foods without necessarily following a recipe, just inventing something right then & there on the spot by combining flavors.. & I often opt for the odd and risky of flavors {i'm these days contemplating the thought of making chocolate, wagashi, & icecream sushi rolls -- It's weird, i know!} but don't fret, somehow they work out in the end.. Abdulla, however, is my favorite because of his unique taste glands, he would always be the first to try something I cook for the first time and would provide his feedback on which dish sits first, second, & third on his charts *lol* ~ he's also someone who has a sweet tooth, & I'm one to looooooove making dessert mOre than any other cuisine <3

Sooooooo, this weekend was great, 'cept for the part where I lost my yoga book that I was half way through ;( but never mind, I have plenty of books waiting to be read {so she tells herself to feel better} ~ I've been waking up every morning filled with love, lotssss of good feelings, I'd be lying down in my favorite star-fish pose facing the ceiling with the most prettyful thought bubbles forming shape on my ceiling.. Today, however, that loving feeling was over flooding.. & the spillover found its reach to those I care for around me & it felt good to shmy loveow them how I feel.. Seriously, life's too short to hold back your emotions for tomorrow. Tomorrow may never come.

However, my love didn't have arms long enough to reach out to Matiné, Andreas Helgstrand's blue horse that's aaaaaabsoluuuutely a charm, i love herrrr so much & can't have enough of her dancing videos {I love you too, YouTube} watch the video:



& while we're at it, I'm stilll not over how the horse of the Qatari prince could do this in the midst of thousands of people, loud music, & flashing lights.. awesome! soooo admirable & deserves a genuine round of applause <3




It's 9:00, & I have to rush out to my appointment. I miss blogging everyday, I really do ;(

Hapression: That Perking Feeling
I cut my fringe porcelain-doll style, & i'm sooooooo loving it =D i love it! i love it! i love itttt! -- I'm going through this re-style/re-construct/re-organize phase with just about everything around me; my look, my lifestyle, home, perceptions, & even my pets -- & you know what? it feels GREAT!

I've made up my mind that I would live everyday as it comes {this I'll try, really, with as little planning pour le future as possible}, but mOre importantly; I've made up my mind that I will no longer wait for things to happen & build castles of sand somewhere in the future of my imagination, ..that I won't deprive myself from what I ought to pursue thinking it isn't "the right time" -- the fact is: it's always the right time -if we allow it. Invisible walls of limitations, boundaries, & rules have been knocked down: I'll do w-h-a-t-e-v-e-r makes me feel good given two conditions:
#1. It does not conflict with my principles
#2. It is socially acceptable

In other words, I'm going to Paris, with or without Prince Charming & will enjoy Paris sans him to the exploding max. It also means that I've never been more confrontational than now, & taking many, many leaps of faith without compromising independence. I do not owe anyone anything, & I intend to keep it that way.

...

Back to my porcelain doll fringe, did I mention that I'm loving it? lol Yes, I'm starting to obsess now! But irrelevant of that; the past week I've been experiencing strange behavior {and perhaps hormones?} -- I've been waking up in this über hyperactive perky mood, bursting out in laughter at random times of the day for no apparent reason {seriously, it looks so silly when you're in a room alone lol}.. & been having real trouble keeping a straight face at work >_<; -- I walked into my manager's office to discuss a serious work-related matter, serious to me, & there's nothing about it that's funny.. It nearly took me 3 minutes just to stop laughing & consumed ALL of my cheek muscles to just make my face go into default-mode.. seeing me laugh for no reason made him laugh in return, & from then on for me there was no stopping even though I made it very clear that I do not find the topic of our discussion funny & that I've been waking up every morning in that condition..

Have I been infected with Hapression? {that's the opposite of depression, in case such word exists} --I'm not complaining, really ;p

...



"This is a simple, poignant short film, shot on a budget of $150: a man with a survey stops passersby and asks them, "Are you anybody's favorite person?" What a heartbreaking question, for somebody who DOESN'T come first in somebody else's heart! Miranda July, who wrote the short story this is based on, had just finished shooting ME AND YOU AND EVERYONE WE KNOW and made this film in the week between shooting and editing the first rough assembly. Miguel Arteta, who directed, was still in love with her at the time, and in an interview with WHOLPHIN said, 'The shoot was painless but sure enough, by the time I started editing, we were broken up. This little short is like a rear-view mirror that survived a fabulous, painful crash.'"

I watched this video on YouTube the other day, & it got me thinking.. Am I anyone's favorite person?

I couldn't get that question out of my head; I asked friends & some family members about their favorite person(s).. I know I have a favorite person, ..they're two actually: Muse {my bestest friendah EvErrrrr}, My favorite Gemini, & G is slowly escalating up the ladder ;p Each one of them has a set of specific reasons why they've become my favorite people.. Muse -for instance- I've known for a little over a decade, there were those times when I'd wake up in the morning feeling blue & she'd jump into her car {still in her PJ's} & hit the highway to come and see me. I love her because we can hate each other for a fraction of a second in the midst of an argument & still able to talk openly about things & express how we feel about them, and i <3 her for the fact that she's the only person i'd trust with an open-budget apparel & accessory shopping for me when I'm not able to do my shopping myself =D

My favorite Gemini? Well to make it short & precise: A person who's in many ways a reflection of me, a person that I can talk to about anything! literally. My bon vivant that appreciates the same elements of lifestyle as myself; the largest spectrum of music titles, horseback riding, art, culture, & yoga to name but a few. Gemini is one of the most positively positive people I've come across, & it's so refreshing because you know it takes a lot of strength for someone to see the light in the darkest hours -- "the rastafara still play reggae, still smoke ganja, and roam around jamaica....everything changes, but good things remain". The Tibetan chants are another reason ;p

G? I'd say one of the most logical, confident, & emotionally stable people I've met. Communication with G is often flawlessly seamless. G is also one of those people who are able to look at matters from a 'zommed out' lens.. see them in a way you haven't seen them before, & has the same-kind wisdom aura my eldest brother has, which I personally find a great thing to have in people around us.

So now that you know about my favorite person(s), it's your turn.. tell me, who's YOUR favorite person ever? & why?

Somebody's Me
I am writing this with a heart-crunching feeling of unfairnessss *sob sob sob* -- I finally got a taste back of the ol' days of blogging every day when I was on my vacation {attributed to joblessness of course, but i'll choose to omit that fact here} but it felt sooooo goood.. & I realized that -in my head- I write a new blog post every day, sometimes several times a day on random occasions, ..say while getting ready in the mOrning, or.. while taking a shower.. or even as I prepare to go to sleep.. I just never have the time to actually jot down my thoughts nor keypad them onto my MacBookah

I dislike the fact that work is sucking me away from blogging, & many things.. And although I'm enjoying at least 66% of the projects I'm working on at the moment; I don't feel too comfortable when meetings are scheduled *after* 5 PM.. Not that I do not want to work on these projects, but more often than not my evenings are populated with inflexible plans.. In fact, my mum has been wanting me to select curtains, sofas, & head boards for my brother's place & I -literally- haven't been able to fit than in any of my evenings during the week, simply because -like I said earlier- my days are filled with inflexible plans. Language classes, & riding namely.

I'm scheduled to fly back to London for a week, & as tempting as the idea of spending my birthday in London avec my bestest friend might sound; I actually do nottttt want to go.. I get this sinking feeling in my very gut at the thought of it & I think I'll bail out on the whole thing.

I mean, ..seriously, no can do. I just got back less than a week ago, I missed this place & I missed having 'me' time.. Spreading my Yoga mat in my room & meditating every evening in the comfort of familiar surroundings {I meditated only once in London.. bad, bad, BAD >_<; }.. & I feel sooooo guilty for lagging behind on Spanish, I feel that i'm pushing myself to the limits, trying to do everything at once {so typical of me} but that's enough. So, as you can see, my cost-benefit analysis yields a major deficit on the feel-good factor, so why go when I have the opportunity to be perfectly happy here? {minus the staying late at wOrk part, that is lol}
I won't leave.


This will proooobablyyyy come in as a disappointment to my best friend, nyxx, & a third friend who's been insisting to have Joe's date pudding with me on Sloane.. bu.. buh.. but i love you awl *fweaked smile* I dooo I dooooooo, it's just that.. *another fweaked out smile* ..that.. I'm not 'feeling' this trip <=) ..& on the brighter side, we can always do Momo's moroccan tea and macaroons in Dubai {karroozi, now don't you go feeling left out, you can join too xx}

...

Meanwhile, I must run a bath now, ..every move of my body makes me flinch in pain.. my sore muscles begging for a hot salted bath & plenty of sleep to recover from yesterday's adventure with a crazy hyperactive pony that scared the sweats out of me & squeezed every muscle in my body to bitssss >_<; ..BUT before I go, here are a few of my favorite finds that I'd like to share with you..


Things that make my heart tickle..

01. This book is for the Goddess in you, Goddesses {yes, you know yourselves}.. & it's an aaaaabsoluuuute must for every gorgeous girl out there, ..I <3 what Gisele {the author} has done with it, it's looks every bit gorgeous in a trés girlie girl way <3 <3 my cuppa tea! ..this books makes a perfect gift for every fashion/lifestyle/well-being addict, & I think no girl should be without several copies of it.. one for the bedroom, one for the car, one for the bathroom, & one just in case ..{Bonus: the cover makes another gorgeous decorative item to throw around your room *winks*}




02.Crystal Icing is trés cuuuuute way to smother l'oooove onto your favorite possessions; think your makeup brushes, your riding helmet {yes, i've sent them my horseback riding helmet for a crystal icing ^.^}, your blow dryer {yes, i did that too *lol*}, & even a pepper spray *gulp* <-- how cool would that be? -- i'm loving the super mario face on a DS <3









03. Seamed point-heel stockings by Gio. Why do I love them? well, aside from the fact that they're the essence of femininity, and the embodiment of delicacy, Gio hand-manufactures classic fully fashioned stockings on the original Reading machines from the 1950s {think Dita Von Teese lol}. I've alwayZz loved stockings & tights in vibrant colors & fishnets, but classic seamed is something I never seem to get off my 'all time favorite-slash-must have items' list, nonetheless, the problem with seamed nylons is that they're sooo very delicate that one-time wear is all that it can handle before it snags.. The other day I lived through the self-condemning shrinking feeling of having to walk with a ladder cutting through down to my decollete louboutins >_<; I promised me self not to leave home again without an extra pair in my bag! ..but Gios have come to the rescue, they're delicate & substantially mOre durable than any other kind i've tried before =)


04. The über HUGE foam in my 'appuccino =)



05. This song:




a'ight, now I need to go get my doze of meditation for the evening; so until I post again, you have my love {& care for it} =D
xx
