Jason Segel + Swell Season

So I could try in vain to describe how amazing it was to see the Swell Season live, but instead I will just say that the show last night was unbelievable. Glen Hansard just seems like a true musician, absolutely forthright and honest--not to mention his incredible guitar skills. I've never seen anyone rock an acoustic guitar like that. It was an amazing birthday gift, thanks to Jackie and Naomi.

Also, Jason Segel happened to be sitting really close to us while we were watching the show. Little did we know that this video was the reason why. Just like Naomi and I have discussed on occasion, only in LA would this happen at a show. Such a treat - enjoy.

an apple a day.

Can't afford a sweater this fall like this beautiful Gap cardigan?

Well how about you save yourself some ca$h and knit your favorite piece of fruit a camel-colored sweater* instead like this Etsy shop? Much more cost effective. I wouldn't actually mind shielding my usual bananas from excessive bruising in my purse, but I can't even keep a straight face thinking about how awful the connotations of a banana-sweater would be... ;) Enjoy thinking about that the rest of the day - Happy Monday.

*I'm not actually serious about knitting fruit sweaters.

This is how I feel about making it to the weekend.

This is really weird, but I thought it was really funny for some reason. Partly the dog, the gaze, those tattoos...haha.

Here is an adorable long gold necklace, my favorite of late. Looks like you could just float away...I've never been on a hot air balloon. But someday, I would like to go.

I'm off with my favorite boy-duo to see Mutemath this weekend. Apparently they put on a fantastic show. Other than that, I hope to rest and sleep. The new fitness program I started is really taking it out of me. Time to recoop.

Have a great weekend.

Arizona.

Courtney and I are off to Arizona tomorrow night for a long weekend visiting a friend...I'm looking forward to checking out a new place and seeing my friends who have decided to move far, far away.

Not much going on this week, but I am starting a "90-day challenge" at work on Monday and have committed to doing 5 days a week of Insanity in addition to setting some personal goals including lowering my body fat percentage, which was recently tested in a Hydrostat tank. The title speaks volumes. I did one of the harder workouts today, and I am so wiped out. It definitely is going to push me however, but at the moment five days a week is sounding pretty daunting. It's intense cardio / plyo, which is defintely the right kind of workout for me. Also, pretty awesome that I'm encouraged to work out at work.

Also, I'm really digging (tacky?) What I Wore these days, she posts great pics of really practical but creative style. In particular, I love this look (those Oxfords!).

Funny video, poor guy. Makes me glad my friends aren't all married. Yet. ;)

Happy Birthday Jess!

My desk.

I can't believe Jess and I are 22, how time flies (but I'm still 16 minutes older). In honor of this...how about some silly photos.
This one's OLD :)

Also, check out this video! Cracking up at my desk just now.

Wacky Wednesday.

What a great Wednesday!

A picture narration:
Bicycle hunting...[Trek 7000 pictured]

Rendezvous with Naomi at the Green Truck...new fav lunch spot! The "Mother Trucker" burger? To die for. Simply beyond flavorful.
Emiliana Torrini / Anya Marina tonight @ the Largo with my other two (mouse)keteers.

And last but not least...lolz. Caricature fail.

LOLs

You know when you're reading something really funny, and you're laughing out loud even though it's awkward and you shouldn't be? [read Are You There Vodka? It's Me Chelsea and you will truly understand]

Well, I read this POST by the hilariously funny and sardonic writers of 2birds1blog and couldn't help but awkwardly giggle and snort simultaneously at my computer screen[s] for 10 minutes.

Without further ado. 10 points if you accidentally snort.
