They do it all the time...

It is such a Violent Femmes kind of day. I bought their self titled record probably 6 times now and to date I do not own a copy. It is always being either lost or lifted by friends. It is just one of those records. luckily today one of my co-workers has it up on his I-tunes, so I have been able to rock out to this long lost favorite while I am wading through this long Friday on little to no sleep.

We had cake for someone's birthday which is always a treat. I had a small slice that was not small enough as it is now sitting in my stomach like a bag of chocolate flavored bricks.

How do you measure your own personal successes? Would you consider yourself a successful person? How do you define yourself?

I have a desire to leave all things uncompleted. If you don't finish it, they can't judge you for it.

Who are they anyhow and why don't they just all kiss off into the air?

Last night we went to a Gala...

I love calling a party a Gala, it makes it seem like sparkles are in order!
We went to opening night of SIFF (Seattle international film festival for those of you not in the know)
We hung out in the VIP room since The Posies were playing. It was fun getting the celebrity treatment for the night. We got to walk past the velvet rope since we were on "the list" and then we were ushered straight back to the VIP area past everyone waiting in line to herd up to the main room.
I wore a black dress that had shiney black beads from head to toe and my lovely vintage white leather coat with a silver fox trim. I was feeling fully fabulous!
We ate rich chocolates and sipped champagne and watched all of the beautiful people wandering around. I got to spend time with the fabulous beauties that are Amie, Licia, Domonique, and Christine. (Don't worry, there were photos taken and they will be posted soon)
The Posies rocked the new songs and seemed to have a lot of fun doing it.
The only celebrities spotted were Miranda July and a couple of her cast-mates from her movie. We saw a chick that was almost Jennifer Connally to a freakish degree!
At the end of the night Jon told me I looked like a princess and that he was very proud to tell everyone i was his wife. That was the frosting on the cake!

All in all it was a wonderful evening!
