Oh Christmas Tree

We have a vintage tinsel tree that we leave up year-round where I work. We haven't really decorated for Christmas, but I figured I would share a few pictures anyway!

All of these keyboards and other instruments are total kid-magnets!

Such a beautiful guitar ornament!

Our raven and star tree toppers.

Bats freak me out, but I do like this sequined one!

All The Money's Gone!

If you've been around here for awhile, you've read about my friend Geri X. {her website here // posts mentioning her here}

Geri recently put out a music video for her new song "All the Money's Gone," which will be on her upcoming album entitled "White Light." A few of my other friends helped with the album {drums & recording, bass & artwork}, and I can tell you that it is going to be an amazing album! I am pretty excited about it!

Not only is the song catchy and great, but the actual video itself is pretty cool. It's stop motion {I think that's what it's called?}, and the photographs were taken by Thomas Anomolous. He's taken some beautiful pictures of Geri, and this video is amazing. It must have taken so long to shoot all of those pictures!

an evening away

last week, I had to go to an out-of-town event for a school activity in the evening. I didn't feel like driving an hour back in the late evening hours, so I rented a hotel room. it was the first time that I've ever stayed at a hotel by myself, so it was a little weird, but it was nice.

I chose to stay at the aloft because I had once done a project on them for my Hospitality Management class, and I thought that they looked pretty cute.

I love that little retro alarm clock.

the room at the venue all set up for dinner.

the other room all set up for the show.
