Brain Bunnies

What's better than one pom-pom? Two pom-poms!

 

What possessed me to want a pomeranian? This layout in Vogue last summer put me over the edge. Now, after looking at it again, I'm convinced we need another fluff ball.  His and her pom-poms -  a must have.  Along with an upgraded wardrobe, hairstylist, makeup artist, etc... 

I didn't think Pierce Bronson could be anymore handsome...until I saw this. 

Daily Routines

Yesterday, while reading the LA Times, I learned about a blog titled Daily Routines. It focuses on "how writers, artists, and other interesting people organize their days." From Emily Dickinson to Charles Darwin, I found it to be fascinating. However, the only person I could relate to was William Wegman who's mornings are busy taking care of kids dogs.  In any case, it inspired me to come back to Brain Bunnies.  I love to be inspired. Thanks, Mason Currey, for launching your blog.  

Marley, Me and Gino

Gino and I went to the premier of "Marley & Me" last night.  Would you believe that it was the first time in six years that we have been to a movie together? It was so much fun. At the end of the red carpet you could have your photo taken with Marley. While we were waiting for all the A-listers to be seated they projected the photos onto the big screen. Well, here we are. Now, my wannabe actor husband is convinced that the producers will be calling him to star in their next production. If anyone gets a call, it's going to be Louie Bear our dog...we're talking star material here.

Under the table

It's not easy being four - just ask my son who's under the table at Red Robin's. The resister, as I now call him, hasn't felt like joining in any reindeer games. No games, no school, no dinner, no fun. Nothing has been going right for the poor guy. As we were  finishing our dinner we finally coaxed him to come up and eat his corn dog. He didn't want a corn dog, he wanted a burger. But, his hunger prevailed and he devoured the dog.  It was a tough week and the look on his face sums it up perfectly. Nothing like eating dinner while your child cries under the dinner table.

Cheers to a new week.

 

 

My love for the paper

 

Last week on my way out to Catalina with the family, I starting obsessing about the newspaper.  However, I was happy to see a boatload of readers on the ferry. I felt like a secret agent as I snapped shots of people and their papers.  Today, I have taken my obsession a step further by writing about it in my OC Register website blog.

P.S. What I thought were napkins on the boat table, actually were barf bags. Makes sense.

UPDATE: The Orange County Register published my story in the real paper. Yep, I got some ink in the fishwrap!
