Dharma Drama!

Tomorrow marks the 2-hour season finale of Lost and I couldn't be more excited. I'm also very proud of myself for not hunting for spoilers from the evil Dark UFO.
We'll be hosting a little shindig at our place for all our true blue Losties, which should be fun. I'm adding a little personal touch so I'll make sure to take pictures. We'll also have the ringlight up and ready for some fun portraits of our guests.

ps; I admit. I steal music. And I stole Gavin Rossdale's new solo album. I really wish I hadn't. It is horrible in every way horrible can be. I really feel for him. He's going to get *spanked* by the media. Oh well, I still puffy heart him and want to have his babies.

Back in Black!

I'm back!!!!
We had a great time in Virginia, even though I'm pretty sure we spent the majority of our trip traveling in some way either by car or plane. The wedding was absolutely spectacular and very romantic. Congratulations to Mel and Bill!



Ever since arriving back, I've been catching up on my online life (very tiring) of blogs, facebook and gmail. Upon beginning my music updates, I stumbled upon this little enticing tidbit on Blamo, my favorite Smashing Pumpkins fansite:

To celebrate the band's 20th anniversary, The Smashing Pumpkins will be playing select U.S. cities in August and September of 2008.

No dates or cities have been announced but expect the band to revisit a few specific places that were missed during the last U.S. tour...

Could Miami be one of these mystery tour dates? I certainly hope so. I am still getting over my pain when the festival the Pumpkins were headlining down here in Miami was postponed indefinitely and then canceled altogether. That was not a pretty day in the world of Meli.

I'm still patiently waiting for Corgan and crew to make their way down here again, but dammit Billy, you are pissing me off so lets get to it!

Happy Memorial Weekend!

There's nothing like a 3 day weekend!
Hope you all have an amazing time and please don't do anything I wouldn't. ;)

The hubs and I are flying into Washington, DC tomorrow morning with friends to attend a good friend's wedding in Virginia. Unfortunately, we are leaving on Sunday so we won't be able to do much sightseeing, but it should be a good time with close friends and beautiful scenery.



Congrats to the soon to be Mr. and Mrs.!

Stamp of Approval

How cute is this???

I found this adorable custom stamp through one of my favorite blogs, appropriately named Cuteable. It can be ordered through Craftpudding's Etsy shop. It currently states that she is not taking any new orders, but I messaged her anyways. I must have this for our return labels!

::unintelligible noises::

Gavin's video for his new single, Love Remains the Same.
I kind of lost all motor skills about 5 seconds in.
Enjoy. And beware.

Musical Chests.

So after some heavy moving (all by myself, I must add!) this afternoon, I was able to find a good spot for our current chest.


*please disregard horrible blurred bed mess.

What do you guys think?
Unfortunately, I can't find my tape measure to properly size up whether or not the Hemnes chest fits in the front of the bedroom. I'm going to have to wait until the hubs gets home. I also cannot wait to get those venetian blinds in there - our current "blinds" are on their last legs.

Now I can start the hunt for some fun accessories for our chest!
Any recommendations?

Weekend Round Up

This weekend was a packed one!
We went to Dave & Buster's to celebrate Beau's birthday, who is one of our bestest friends.



Then we headed to Blue Martini to celebrate Lindsay & Melanie's college graduations, two girls who have become way more to the hubs and I than coworkers.




We are very lucky to have such amazing people in our lives that we can call our friends, so I want to send a very big hug their way. I hope we are all around for many more milestones. After all, who else would we make fun of? ;)
