*new*

one word post title. new.

i chose it

for a number of reasons,

most below.
some not below.

read on,

then i'd love love love -really & trules- to hear

what's been/what's going to be

new with you.

first,

as said in my last post,

i got a new haircut.

it looks nothing like the hair above, as i was too chicken shit

to go for the bangs, but it is a trimmed version of the way-too-long long-ass layers i was shaggily rockin' for a minute and a half.

**

Ryan, the h'cutter,

did give me some new face-framin' pieces.

[as i type now, the pieces are in my peripheral, and i kinda like it]

i also am on the hunt for new knee socks.

the cute kind that i see peeking out from under a tall boot

like here and here and here.

i've also been ready for a new cell, and i believe

the lucky winner of that honor is the iPhone 4.

*

howevs,

i want it in white.

*

the boyf & i

are about ready to cave, though.

fuck it. once we go black, we'll never go back

...to another phone???

iPhone4...R U the 1?

after getting my hair cut on friday,

i discovered what i had suspected all last week:::

that

CRUMBS

Bake Shop

would be

my

new

favorite

place for
tasty treats of

love

and

joy

and

unfathomable deliciousness:

the most worth it half-hour drive anyone could make

*

the selection was overwhelming:

*

i ended up going with a *taste*pack*

and a *caramel*apple* cupcake:

*

i wanted to wait 'til i got home to eat it with some

hot,

organic,

green,

blueberry tea,

but i

couldn't wait

& nibbled in the car::

[notice the new haircut?? no?? yeah, it's way subtle, i guess]

*

i bought a notebook with my new favorite piece of advice,

and

looking at this photo makes me remember

that i need to get a new favorite tea mug.

*

this guy,

blogged about here,

fell on the floor

& broke his handle.

*

awww...adios, smiley-face tea mug!

this weekend,

i saw a brand new view of the

New York City

skyline:

one from the top

of Bear Mountain.

autumn & us on top of bear mountain

*

tip tippy top,

fall foliage freeze frame,

breathe in, breathe out
*

oh goodness:

northface // ugg boots

\\

//

*fall uniform*

*

[i miss my flip flops]

*

the boyf

zoomed

himself & i

through the winding, twisting

roads of upstate new york

on Saturday afternoon:

we even caught my

nana's favorite animal:

...and what excited me was that none of these deer

had antlers, which means they were girls.

i kept saying to Tomas:

"they were having a girl party,

they were having a girl party."

i thought it

was cute, i guess,

because obviously

females of every species need

a break from the men.

;)

speaking of that last thought,

my favorite new show has been

Boardwalk Empire

on HBO.

it grips me every Sunday night.

i think it's really a lot of fun,

and

refreshing,

and i would say "tune in"

but you've

had to have watched the previous weeks

to love it too.

*

anyway,

on last night's episode,

Mrs. Schroeder said this to Van Alden:

"I've been lectured a great deal...by men who speak boldly, but do nothing."

my new favorite quote.

also worth mentioning

[although you might think me monotonous

and lame, but i don't care]

is my love for

the ((relatively)) new babies::

they are getting so big,

and they're only 6 months old this week.

*
they're also growing in snuggliness

and are incredibly hilarious.

*

case in point,

this snapshot of them

holding each other

while taking their

afternoon nap:

how could i resist??

this one's a little guilty.

hee hee.

i need to make a new deposit into my

bank account so i can use my

debit card to make an online purchase of these

Boutique 9 Boots and add a new pair

to my fall-shoes-repertoire:

i wanted them in black,

like i saw Maegan have 'em in,

but the place i found them in my size,

only's got grey.

*

i'll deal.

*

i'm pretty sure i HAFF to have 'em.

'nother "new"??

in my opinion,

the freshest new

color combo for *FaLL*2010*::

raspberry

& grey

[if you scroll back up to the Bear Mountain pics,

you'll see peeking out from under my Northface

is my raspberry/grey striped sweater

that i wear whenever i can]

what else is "new"?

the

new bedroom

i've been conjuring up

with my

interior-decorating-expert

of a bitt, my sister.

we eyed this Vera Wang comforter from Kohls

[and when i have her to find the link for me, i'll link it]

gorgios.

finally,

lastly,

in conclusion,

to end,

wrapping up...

my *2010* is ALMOST OVER,

and that means

I working on a new layout/blogging vehicle/title/avenue

for the new blog to be mine come the end of 2010.

****

i can't believe it.

more on that to come.

today's a new Monday of a new week.
