Need Fashion Advice

Sometimes I like to slide on over to the "heels" end of the "Geek in Heels" equation. :-) Yes I am a girl, and I need girly advice. In my last post, I wrote about the project with which I am currently involved. Well, my friend's business partner is a Hollywood producer, and his latest movie is set to debut in theaters March 20th! The movie is The Great Buck Howard, starring Tom Hanks, John Malkovich, Colin Hanks, Emily Blunt, and Steve Zahn. (Watch the trailer here.)

A Sheepish Hello

I think that may have been the longest time I've gone AWOL since starting this blog. I could spew excuses about being sick before my trip to LA, not having a reliable source of internet while in LA, then getting sick again right after my return.

Chinese New Year Card

Last week I decided to start painting again. It was a perfect time to start - with J's birthday, another close friend's birthday, and the lunar new year coming up, I wanted to paint cards for these occassions. A fantastic way to save money and squeeze out some creativity juice! So I busted out my ArtBin Upscale 3 Tray Box, travel easel, and box of goauche paints. (Goauche is my favorite painting medium. They're perfect for illustrations!) The living room became a disaster area while I commenced work, but I was very pleased with the results. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of my friend's card before I mailed it. And J's birthday card contains an inside joke that wouldn't make sense to anyone...
