FYI: This should have been posted Dec 5thish. I’ve been busy.
1. I bought a package of dance classes at Westlake that expire in a month and I kind of didn’t go for a while, so last week I had to take dance class almost every evening. One of them was hip hop and only three people showed up. It was so awkward. Westlake dance isn’t so great I’ve decided, I’m moving to Velocity Dance Center.
2. Last week was the last week of Fall Session at my gymnastics coaching job. I gave all my kids medals and said “Smell ya later!”
3. FIRST THURSDAY. Which is always fun. We went to the 619 Building where all the hip/ really cool people in Seattle go on first Thursday. But it was lots-o-fun and I drank some wine, met some people and got that excited/ anxious feeling I get when I’m around tons of people.
4. 2Pac: The Resurrection. I had nothing to do on Friday and it was my night off, so I watched my Netflix with Harry and a couple bottles of wine. After all that fun we went on an adventure through the U-District to pick up Paul and hang out with a few other peeps.

5. I forgot to mention that I discovered an awesome sweater at Goodwill within minutes of walking in, one that I have been searching for for many days! It is my official winter sweater, how exciting is that.
6. My favorite past time has become scouring Value Village, Goodwill and various vintage/ consignment shops for random things, clothing/ whatever makes me smile. The other would be listening to music all day. On that note….
7. I am so musically overwhelmed. I have downloaded and been given soo much music in the past few months that I don’t even know what to listen to anymore. My favorites new tunes have been: Coconot, The Ruby Suns, Blockhead, Ghostface Killah, The Dirty Projectors, Wilco, M. Ward, and Dj Nu Mark. I’ve been making playlists to lessen the blow.
8. I am making a Preschool “Robot Music” mixtape for my preschoolers! Here are some of the tracks:
1. The Crystal Cat- Dan Deacon
2. Kim& Jessie- M83
3. Call on Me- Eric Prydz
4. IMpossible- Figurine
5. Good Time- Crystal Castles
6. Jazzhole- Free the Robots
7. Antillas- El Guincho
8. Surfin on a Rocket- Air
9. One More Time- Daft Punk
10. Neon Beanbag- Stereolab
11. Ping Island- Mark Mothersbaugh
12. Air War- Crystal Castles
13. Cut and Run- Electrelane
14. And I was a Boy from School- Hot Chip
15. Palmitos Park- El Guincho
16. Technologic- Daft Punk
It’s going to be great! (fyi, they really like it)
P.S. This blog is lame, if you did not pick up on that. Also, I think I am turning into an old lady.



These last few pictures are some of my awesome-est finds at Value Village. I smile every time I see those golden palm trees on my desk
