"GOD, THAT'S DISGUSTING!!"

Another eventful day! The photoshoot with photographer, Kiersta Rhodes of Kiersta Rhodes Photography, was incredible--as expected! Working with her as a makeup artist, I have always admired her talent and ability to command the scene. This girl knows what she's doing. She gives excellent direction and strives for perfection. Knowing this, I was confident being placed on the other side of the camera. Modeling's bomb. Almost as fun as Kiersta.

Not your average laundry day.

You'll be seeing some serious updating within the next couple of weeks. (Plenty to keep your eyes occupied while I'm off in Texas land.) We did different looks at two different locations, three outfit changes. Kiersta's captain of an adorable studio apartment, but we hit up a laundromat first. Such a crazy-retro place. It was dingy, low-end, isolated, home to average joes and random school desks; smelled like cardboard. Love at first sight. This place was perfect. I sported some color for this one, Superman style. Fitting for a certain, super, up-coming film.

After doofing about like childish hooligans for about an hour, we mobbed back over to Kiersta's for some classy boudoir. Totally different atmosphere and feel behind these pics--feminine beauty and all that loveliness. Can't wait for edits!

By then, we were starvin' Marvins. After much deliberation, we headed to J. Wong's Asian Bistro, down the street. Delicious to the max here, people. I love Asian food. This place was top-notch, quiet. We had a scrum-diddly-umptious lunch, then called it a day. What a day!

Came home to a sick kitty and an hour to get ready for work. Tomorrow's day off has been replaced with taking kitty-kins to the vet. Poor little trooper's had his share of bladder problems and is at it again. Here's to hoping it's nothing serious.

But we're ending tonight on a happier note: I got the biggest kick out of a grandma taking her granddaughters shopping. They were much too young to be perusing Macy's cosmetics, but Granny didn't say a thing. Not until one of the youngsters plucked up the brightest pink lipstick she could wrap her gooby fist around, and told Grammy she wanted it.

"GOD, THAT'S DISGUSTING!! You put that back!" Grandma was very precise.

The most disgusting shade in the world. Grandma says so.

Just a few more days 'til I hop the plane to Texas! You won't be seeing much artistic splendor on this end 'til I get back. I've got a fairytale boudoir shoot with photographer, RaShea Drake, that might come to pass tomorrow last-minute, but no promises. Like I said, very last-minute. It would be a nice added bonus. I'll just have to be extra artsy-fartsy and photogenic in Texas to make up for it.
