Another busy weekend. Helped my sistar at dandee warhol's ridiculously 80's art event on friday where i spent a week painting a texans dunny that didn't end up selling cos i priced it $200. It was a win-win situation for me cos i really like the painting and didn't really wanna part with it. I also squeezed in some dinner time that evening with mini and cooper to do some catching up. We went to the new phoenicia's in downtown. SO happy that they opened up one closer to me. I've eaten their chicken schwarmas twice this week already. Garlic sauce sooooo good. Thanks to mochi for the intro! Work on saturday and then had a little birthday dinner thing for big poppa at crawfish and noodles. He ended dropping the leftover tirimisu cake from jungle cafe onto the sidewalk and i was just devastated cos i was looking forward to eating some everyday for the next week. Ugh. So sad. I stayed up until 3am working on some posters for chewy, vneck and some phat that turned out soooo awesome. They were running the half and full marathon sunday morning and i wanted to make sure that my posters didn't go unnoticed by them as they ran by me. I slept for three hours before having to wake up and make my way to cheer them on. Big poppa wasn't too happy about having to wake up so early. They loved the posters! I also got a lot of compliments from people running by. Makes me so happy. Then we watched as the Texans superbowl dreams were squashed. Such a winnable game. Had dinner with my godmother for the first time since, i dunno, i got baptized? Not really that long but it has been a VERY long time. She loves my dad and thinks that my mom is very lucky to be with him. We all were like, no way, my dad is definitely lucky to be with my mom. Haha. I was off from my real job for MLK but had to work at the 2nd job so no relaxing day off for this gal. Watching people run the marathon made me realize that it really isn't something i want to do. Evar. But kudos to those who have done it.

Wedding: Jay & Jasmine

Right before my big oceana trip, i was frantically unloading all my photos from memory cards to wherever i could and somehow, a lot of them ended up on big poppa's laptop. Once i returned, things were hectic and it wasn't until a few weeks ago where i started wondering where a bunch of my fotos were. I looked all over my computer and then found them in big popps's laptop. It was like all this stuff from april and may and some of june. Big poppa was a groosmen in one of his good friends wedding. It was prolly THE MOST FUN wedding i have been to. Evar. And to think i almost completely forgot about it. I'm gonna go ahead and jump to my favorite parts of the wedding. During cocktail hour, they were serving mango lassi. This was the first time i had that stuff and it was so GOOD! I drank like two cups of it and then filled up THREE cups to take back with me for the dinner service. I ended up being so full by the time the actual food started coming out. The next coolest thing was that even before they announced the bride and groom to come in, all these people jumped out of their seats and started dancing. I jumped up to take fotos and ended up dancing around myself cos it was getting so HYPE! Then all of sudden, this dood comes out with a drum and he's wearing those genie shoes and man, he got the party started ALL OVER AGAIN. I gave him the name guru-drummer. I want a guru-drummer at my wedding. Like seriously. But i don't see my family getting up and dancing the way these people were. The last best thing is that their food was catered by bombay brasserie. I don't know what real indian food is supposed to be like but i love bombay brasserie. Drinks flowed freely from the open bar and you can bet your aladdin pants that the boys were all majorly drunk by the end of the night. We made a stop at belvedere after the wedding where clyde drexler was there and the drunk boys stalked the guy to give him some dabs and high five's.
