Currently-Edition 3

December is in FULL swing and it is lovely.  I have done so many fun activities that have been so festive and joyful.  There are no bah-humbugs here! I even put up a Christmas tree for the FIRST time this year! So exciting, you have no idea.  I packed up my ornaments from my parents' house in Seattle and shipped em on down! So here we go with Currently-Edition 3. Woohoo!

Here it is, nestled in the corner of my sweet, studio apartment!  


Drinking

 Dry January is fast approaching, I will be doing a massive health kick as I am going to Hawaii on January 27th and I need to feel a little more...fit if you will? ;) So currently I am enjoying all beverages.  I try not to drink alcohol during the week but that is difficult given all the holiday festivities including my office party that is tomorrow night & a friend's 30th birthday celebration that is Friday! EEK! So a lot of water and the normal coffee routine during the weeks.

Eating

 Healthy! TRYING!  Getting daily treats from patients at work and Trader Joes has these dark chocolate covered peppermint OREO type cookies. HEAVEN & HELL in one box.  So strict eating during the week with 1-2 treats from wherever they show up and working out every day. BLAH.
Side note: tried a new restaurant on Sunday (do I need to do a restaurant blog? YES)....
Sotto (click link to see the divinity that is this restaurant!) was it's name, actually saw the main guy from NCIS... haha.  It was a fancy shmance place but absolutely delicious.  We went with our foodie friends and they know how to pick the entrees, appetizers, desserts, etc and we just share.  It was SO GOOD.  We are talking risotto, flat bread pizzas, roasted chicken, smoked olive oil to dip bread in, cannoli for dessert, cocktails AND red wine.  This meal was no joke.  Loved it!

Listening

 Zooey Deshanel "Baby It's Cold Outside,"  and it is heaven.

Wearing

 My most recent, absolute FAVORITE purchase is my ice blue, satin, pleated midi skirt that I will be wearing for tomorrow night's holiday party.  Oh yes.  The one I ordered is here and it is GORGEOUS!

Wanting

 Well, 'tis the season of Christmas lists and giving and receiving.  I am sure Santa knows what I want this year..... ;)

Reading

 Well, I finished a new book since the last post, "Small Great Things" by Jodi Picoult.  I give this book 5 VERY BIG stars.  It was excellent, eye opening, sad, happy, and mesmerizing.  Highly, HIGHLY recommend.  It was a learning experience for me to read this book and I am so thankful for it.  Learn more here!!

Watching

 So the mid-season finale of The Walking Dead was CRAZY.  I also binged and LOVED Westworld on HBO, seriously, blew my mind and I am a little upset that we have to wait until 2018 to watch season 2!? Say what??? Loving Divorce and so happy it picked up for a second season, SJP is just brilliant.  This Is Us winter finale was gut wrenching good.  That show is seriously incredible, I have not been disappointed once.  WATCH IT!

So...this 'Currently' was a little more short and sweet- but I hope you enjoyed it! XOXO, Happy Holidays, and see you next year!

"What part of LA do you live in?" And Other Important thoughts and questions that go through my head

Oh me. Single as all get out, in the dating world, BIG TIME, not just a toe dipper, nope I am full on doused into the deep end of it.  Yes I am on Tinder, yes I am on Ok Cupid, and yes, I am too cheap to join Match/E-Harmony so I am going with the free ones...which has not proven to be worth it yet but can you complain when you aren't paying for anything....? The things I have stumbled upon, the people I have met, and the amount of drinks I have downed to get through some pretty horrendous dates are quite....interesting.  My last two blog posts can show you a little insight into that. Here are a small amount of things that go through my mind when I am gandering (it's a word even though this tells me it's not- I made it up apparently) at these so called "Dating Bios." How old is he...? Dating sites have filters mostly...unfortunately for Ok Cupid, anyone can message you- but it filters out the age you don't want from your viewing.  So this week for inst...

Rants and Rants and No Raves

Just some things that drive this girl batty- LA DRIVERS- Sometimes I think I need my own reality show (pause for hysterics) but seriously, like just when I am driving in my car.  Can we talk about Los Angeles drivers (literally as I typed that sentence I hear a symphony of car horns on the street below my office window) they are the WORST, although when I was in NYC I feared for my life in the cab, more then once....  BUT LA! I MEAN HOLY CRAP.  I am from Seattle- the traffic there is a fraction of the traffic here, and at the appropriate times- morning, and evening.  Traffic in LA happens at 7AM,  8am, 11am, 1PM, 3PM, 5PM, 6PM, 7PM, 8PM, and etc etc etc etc.  It is one of the main of a small amount of reasons I hate this city, the lack of transportation and how the geography is laid out.  If you live in West LA, and I live in East, you can forget hanging out until Saturdays or Sundays.  When I was on dating apps (SO glad those days are over...

Currently Edition 4

Oh hello!  My last Currently  was in December! My how time has flown!  Already 11 days into April.  OH and FYI, it's been 105 years since Titanic's maiden voyage (NERD ALERT, if you have read my past blogs, you know I am a Titanic fan) and on April 14, it's been 105 years since she sunk.  Since I was 11 I have been remembering this date as if it should be a national day on calendars, to remember. ANYWAY...April 11! So much has happened since December.  Work pace has picked up, I am heading 3 brand new, and time consuming projects that are actually SO MUCH FUN and I am loving them.  But...alas this is not a blog about my job, it's about the going on's in my life! Here goes nothing... Drinking This isn't really as exciting when it's not a festive time of year...but the usualy, coffee from the Keurig in the AM with almond milk.. TONS of H2O throughout the day, I think I spend equal amounts of time at my desk and in the bathroom because I have to go ...
