Had a lovely weekend camping up at the Buckhorn campground in the Angeles National Forest this weekend. I was so excited to find the campground untouched by last years terrible fire. It is such a beautiful location and I would have been so sad to see it burnt.

I have to admit that I am utterly exhausted today. I didn't sleep much at all last night. I was up with a painful UTI. The night before I was up with terrible heartburn from eating too much junk around the campfire and partaking in too much drinking. 2 nights of not feeling good and little sleep has sure taken it out of me. I packed my gym gear for tonight but I think I just may go home and pass out.

Sometimes Life is a Picnic

In honor of the beautiful weather that has finally hit Los Angeles I organized a picnic in Griffith Park at The Old Zoo on Saturday. We had lots of yummy food, sunshine, badminton, and neighbors that included Shakespeare in the Park and pony rides. I deem it a success and great fun. I need to spend more time in the sun. I'm not use to it and it drained me off all my energy, though I'm sure the drinks and food didn't hurt. I just love summers in LA there are just so many wonderful things to do and see.

Oh dear, I have not updated this in awhile. Hmmm, I didn't do that much last weekend. I went and played Ping Pong at Spin Hollywood on Friday with Lindsey and David while Trumbo DJ'ed. I rather enjoyed ping pong. Then on Saturday I did some sketching and went to a bunch of fabric stores around town. I wasn't feeling well at all on Sunday so I stayed in.

Yesterday I went to see my new OB/GYN. I always have a different one every year it seems so I never know what to expect. In general I liked the new one. I picked an older male doctor because I seem to have the best luck with them. He was very nice and friendly. Though I was thrown back at what he said to me right as he was finishing my pap. He smiled and said in an older man harmless flirty way "Well, I'll have to send a thank you card to your doctor for recommending me to you." Which would be less awkward if not for the circumstances. I'm just going to take it as a different generation of doctor humor.

There is a girl on etsy I found that makes these beauiful floral hair pieces. I want to buy 10 of them. I splurged and bought this one.

Puppy Love

What a week it has been in the lives of my parent's dogs. 2 dogs in one week have had to be put down. It is heartbreaking. I can only imagine how terrible it feels in my parents house. The emptiness of an absent pet is heartbreaking. I'm glad I got to see Rusty and Pierre one last time when I went home 2 weeks ago.
