The 365: Day 760



Sunday, January 30, 2011 (30/760)

I went shopping to prepare for the blizzard that I heard about in a tweet. Every time I go shopping I spend so much money and I feel like I don’t have anything to show for it.

Another 90’s Party at Beauty Bar





In the words of Eric Lab Rat, I was “one girl short of a rap video.”





Zack Eastman (http://www.twitter.com/ztothee) hooked me up with a free bottle of champagne for my birthday.




I like to go to theme parties dressed in theme. Most people went with a post-80’s “Fresh Prince of Bel Air” type look. I quite enjoy my take on the 90’s. I think of my look as “Rock just before rock died.”





Right before this one I told Lab Rat, “I want to look really creepy.” What do you think?





This was the moment I ran out of champagne.

The 365: Day 757



Thursday, January 27, 2011 (27/757)

When someone sends a text to the processor on this shirt the sensors apply heat and pressure to simulate a hug. The one on the chest even simulates the heartbeat of the hug-giver.





I want it.





LED dress. You can program it. Awesome.

There weren’t seat belts. But that’s okay, who ever walked away from a plane crash thanks to seat belts?

I like this one because the flash from the other camera gives us shadows and ruins any attempt to simulate depth behind us.





This was taken just after I gave Krystle a wet-willie.

The 365: Day 756



Wednesday, January 26, 2011 (26/756)

My brother [and his wife] gave me the funniest birthday card. I’d tell you what he wrote in it, but you wouldn’t get it.

My aunt took me and my brother to Gene & Georgetti for my birthday dinner. I am not even going to try to get into how awesome it was!
