The Week in Pictures: 4.2.10

Just in case you’re wondering, that’s not a Black AmEx…more like a Bank of America debit card. No Barney’s shopping sprees for you, Auntie Nubs! This week has consisted of errand running, photo booth fun and sorting through piles of tax receipts. I need to remind myself this year to sort the receipts by month as I go so I’m not up until 3 a.m. breaking a sweat. All those plane tickets and lattes do add up, though!

On my way to the coffee shop this weekend, I noticed this car parked in someone’s side yard. Pretty charming. Though, I’d hate to parallel park that baby.

After running errands, Joey and I usually end up at The Ace. With Clyde Common on one side and Stumptown on the other, I always recommend it to out-of-towners who are wanting to stay downtown.

Of course, a stop at The Ace isn’t complete without a few sittings in the photo booth. Since it takes debit cards, I always go a little overboard…and then wake up, log in to my checking account and wonder what multiple $4.00 charges are from.

This week, I had a total first. You may remember that I designed some custom racing numbers for my friend Jason’s son a few months ago. One day, I received a text from him, mentioning that he was going to get them tattooed across his chest. I just figured that he was drunk…but he was dead serious. He just invited me along to take photos. Go, Jason!

Auntie Nubs and I have been on a roll. I think it’s time for us to make another trip to New York to visit our ‘long lost relatives.’

One of Joey’s art shows just came down and as I was moving a stack of canvases, I decided that Shirley fit quite nicely in the corner of the black room.

I cannot believe that it’s already April! Do you have any big plans?

    I’m definitely up for another NY trip with you. We always have the best adventures! Plus, I add more ammo to my arsenal of photos to blackmail you. xoxox

  2. J. says:

    How cool is that tattoo! Awesome!

    I love your photos…always chic!

    This month I plan to buckle down and get a lot of work done…and find another job…

    aNGEL: Thank you, inspiration pops up in the most random of places.

    Sally: Thanks! It’s a huge honor. I guess Jason has to be my friend for life now. Poor guy!

    Greta: It’s actually a light! I never put bulbs in it, though.

    Auntie Nubs: I know…you have the secret family photo album that makes me look like I have some serious disabilities. I hope you have it stored in a fireproof safe! How about we start planning for NYC 2011?

    Janine: I adore Shirley too. When she eventually gets bought up, I’ll be sad.

    J: It was fun to watch and I was honored that one of my best friends would even want it on their chest! Good luck on the job front…you can do it!

    Having your work tattooed on someone must be so rad! Congrats, it looks just as great in skin & ink! Maybe I should add that to my goals in life (having my work tattooed on someone, since I kind of already have someone else’s work on me…)

  5. Aloha from O’ahu! The ornate white key + pink March Moleskine notebook in the last pic slays me. Gorgeous!

    You and the fella in the photo booth look awfully adorable! I took my lady friend to The Roller Garden in Minneapolis (Christian Contemporary Rock Night!) and we got those little teeny photo stickers. Obviously we had to pose in praying positions. For the children.

    Thanks for linking those 16 photoshop tutorials! I’ve been dabbling in photomanipulation for a while as stress release, and needed some good tips! My thing is I’m so beginner I need help!

    Much love,

    Melinda

    P.S. I was directed here from Doe Deere

    Ooh! I love the Shirley painting lots!! … Also, I have the same monthly planners. I am happy to start the April one! March was wayyy too long of a month for me. Gah. Also, the April planner is a pretty shade of pink. Teehee.

    Dear god, I have googled my fingers to the bone! Where did you get your little medical cross box that sits on your desk?
