Money is like liquid in my hands right now. Yay and Yikes in the same breath.
I sorted out some business after work tonight that brought my spending total to new heights, but I'm trying not to sweat it. Ha. Hello new MacBook, new camera, new (misc) accoutrements.
I'm chillin. I'm rocking out to new tunes. I have that much-needed "refreshing" of my iTunes library--new year and all: TV on the Radio, MGMT, Samiam, Fleet Foxes, VHS or Beta, Grizzly Bear, Cut Copy, LCD Soundsystem, Muse, F*@k Buttons, Bob Marley, Lady GaGa, and some other bits...
I was also reviewing my photos from the last year. They didn't even seem real. Looking back on them, I realized how amazing my collection of day-to-days have really been...
Satisfying MexiCravings with Jessica and Ivan
Swapping insider info with Nick, walking around POA
Tony and Paul at Palmeiras, "Really!!"
Making our own fun in Montevideo
Dancing nights
Champagne toasts with Ju and Rafa
Lovely Victoria's birthday bash
Connecting with Allison
One of a million nights of laughter with Lisa, Shelley, and Rafa (and Ivan, of course)
My cousins Amy, Luke, and Amazing Grace
"all the single ladies!"
Natalia and I cheesing again
Sassy Stacee and I ringing in the new year ('09) in Floripa
Fifi and Tati the night of the Michael Jackson impersonator (before that was a worldwide epidemic)
Eliana and Adri sipping with me at Lourival, again
Reconnecting with my Chicago peeps, Andrea, Gina, and Beth
...and Candy, Danielle, and Jill
Rick - sober in this shot - but I have others...
Dad and I goofing off in front of the mirror
"Out with 9 -- I'm all about the 10 now."
Ahhh, I am so fortunate to have this life.
This display is far from all-inclusive, and it makes me wonder how many wonderful memories I'll have next year at this time.
I got a feeling...
