pin me

Here are some of ze things I have been pinning as of late:

A little throwback tune:

I used to drive around listening to this song, thinking how awesomely it would fit into a crazy, rainy car crash scene in a movie. The music video still tears me up.

And to end on a lighter note...watch the movie Butter, on Netflix. So good, so good.

A treatise on my brain happenings

Oh winter time in Canada! Bane, lame, arcane, nothing short of insane; actually, it's been alright this year, but maybe that's only because I know I'm moving to Texas in the upcoming month! Yesterday we were taking a walk, and it was cold (duh, but actually it was "warm" for us, but still cold), and I told Vida that we would be warm in Texas soon. It's pretty much my daily mantra to her. She says, "I know, and we won't have to wear a jacket ever! We're going to sell our jackets, sell our jackets!" As she merrily skipped down the sidewalk. Amen sista, amen.

Vida's actually obsessed with selling our stuff. I went through all our stuff, sorted out what we don't need, and told her we were going to have a garage sale. She digs through the pile now, trying to hoard back her clothes. And in her darkest moments she whimpers things like: "don't sell this dress," or "don't sell all my toys," hehe.

And now, pictures of things that dance in my brain and my dreams:

watch on netflix

You know, for those interested in watching subtitled documentaries on Russian mafia bosses.

Happy wanderings this Satur Day.

What's up G monies?

Here's what's been rattling around in my beaner:

My brother Quinn's new blog quinncarrasco.wordpress.com

This article On how the maternal death rate has almost doubled in the last 20 years in the US as it declines almost everywhere else. You might not guess the reason....

Did any of you know Hugo Boss and Henry Ford were Nazis?

And as always, Pinterest, which I have linked to my blog so you all can see my fabulous taste in action.

oh you bloggitables!

I have been feeling the blogs build in me, like I can fee l this baby waiting to bust a move south. So here it is; we'll just consider me-selfs as havin' takin' the summer off. But I'm back, and I'm 36 weeks pregnant, going to Costco later, and ready for adventure. Hello!

I just got to this point of the blog(duh) and realized I don't really have anything profound to write, so I'll tell/show you some more things from the summer.

1) I discovered Pinterest in all its holiness. I feel that the world must be moving into her crowning glory because Pinterest exists. Amen. Some things I'm pining for now:

and so, so many other things. 

P.S. You can find sources for all this crap on my pin boards, cause I ain't postin' it here sucka. (Pinterest link at top is to my boards)

2) I've pondered this deep question; what is the difference between a muffin and a cupcake? Besides the frosting, because you know, some people still put frosting on muffins.

3)  Vida pants

4) I went back to the gym 2 weeks ago, and have been enjoying my walrussy state at such entertaining classes as bodypump, step class, and a combo of yoga/ti chi/ and pilates. Awesome. You should come watch for comic entertainment.

5) I've already started thinking about what I want to buy myself from Brandon for Christmas. The list includes a hot tub. Boo. Just kidding, that would obviously be on the list of things that count as gifts that are mutually given to each other.

6) and you! my beauties, I'd love to have bloggity friends to get my through the frigid winter.

Let's talk more lates,

Love you,
