iPhone snaps

I'll be honest, if it weren't for this lovely lady's most recent blog post, I'd have nothing to share with you today. Although it's been painfully boring around here, I do feel as though it's time for an update and what better way to update you on my life than through pictures! And even better, than through poorly-taken iPhone pictures!

Here are some flowers I bought from Trader Joe's. Although I do think the St. Patrick's Day-themed carnations are pretty wickedly classy, I really only bought the bouquet for those cute green flowers. Those cute green flowers have been my most favorite flowers recently. In case you care, they are called [some variation of] Button Chrysanthemum Mums. Thanks to Twitter for answering my What Is This Flower? query.Speaking of St. Patrick's Day, here's a cute picture of me and my mom. She was in town for business, so we met her downtown for an Irish Car Bomb and a couple gin and tonics (or vodka cranberries, in Mom's case.)And here's Chris and his brother Drew on St. Patrick's Day!While on my way to a job interview the following day, I looked down and noticed that my nail-polish was missing off my ring finger. Even worse, it was also missing off the same finger on my right hand. The duration of my car ride was spent peeling off nail polish, as I didn't think chipped nail-polish would look all that profesh. (P.S. I got the job!)During our quarterly trip to Costco, Chris and I discovered caskets! Yes, bury-you-in-the-ground full-on caskets. Oh, and pink ones, no less! I obviously had to pose for a picture. OBVIOUSLY.This is me after a $30 haircut and color. For the first time since I was probably 10 years old, I went to a Great Clips to get my hair did. It was just totally and completely out of control nasty; I had to do SOMETHING. In keeping with the cheap theme, I decided to DIY my hair-color, as well. I didn't get too crazy; I really just wanted my roots to match the rest of my locks, so I chose an espresso color. After kinda-sorta destroying my bathroom, here was the result (too bad you can't really see anything in this shot, as I wisely chose a brown t-shirt for my hair to blend into. And a brown couch. Aces.)This past weekend, I headed to Colorado to help my grandparents babysit this little cutie. I THINK that's Pike's Peak in the background. Maybe? Or not. Not too sure.I had a layover in Denver on the way home from Colorado, so I did what any red-blooded American does during a layover: I bellied up to the bar. This shows the remnants of my first mimosa, as well as the spice flight that accompanied my Bloody Mary. Yes, a spice flight. I mostly just took this picture to show Chris what a spice flight looked like. He was jealous, obvs.

So that's all that's been going on with me! Exciting stuff, let me tell you what!

I keep forgetting to post my Style Lush articles on this blog, so here are a few you might have missed: I ask SL readers help me with my hair (yes, it's always about my hair, apparently), I give you an awesome pasta salad recipe, I share a delicious way to use up St. Patrick's Day corned beef leftovers, and I help a reader outfit her guest bathrooms.
