Therapy - You Needz It

We went to Austin & Magen’s to visit and exchange gifts, and ended up playing an AWESOME board game called Therapy. I don’t usually do board games. It may have to do with my short attention span or the fact that I hate loosing games, which given my short attention span, usually happens.

This was a lot of fun though. The actual game they had was from when Nathan and Austin were growing up, so it was an older version, but there is a new & different version out now. Basically, you get to ask each other a lot of very interesting psychology based questions, and sometimes you even get to confer with your fellow therapists about the poor guy who happened to land on your “couch”.

Sophie was naughty and

had to be reprimanded…………They made up though. Also, Sophie kissing her other favorite person.

What’s that you say? You want to see another picture of that awesome legwear?

Behold:

I ripped up a pair of black tights, and layered them with a pair of hot pink ones. I think it looks like a beautiful butterfly wing. When I don’t feel like an angsty teen from Hot Topic.

Oh, and in other news, we for reals decided we are doing Buring Man 2009! It was just too much fun last year. I’m looking forward to group yoga, tantric workshops, more naked saunas, a much better shade structure(!), and fewer dust storms than 2008!

Red & Green Day, Part Two

While I was busy baking some fabulous holiday cupcakes, Nathan was exhibiting some mad present wrapping skillz. And I took a few moments from my place as a woman in the kitchen and got a few kisses from Sophie.

Texas Is Insane, or What I Wore Today

Absolutely gorgeous today! None of that 28 degree icy crap we had 4 days ago; no sir, it’s 71 degrees and sunny!

I took Sophie over to the Trinity Trails (right outside our apartment, yo!) and we had a little photoshoot.

Why yes, that is a new hair color, thanks for asking! I got it done last night, and I ALSO had my stylist (Olivia, she’s a doll) bleach out the underneath! I have a surprise coming in the mail, and I promise I will photographically document the upcoming excitement!!
