Chickytavaland: Packing & Pool Time
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/packing-pool-time.html
Thursday, July 19, 2007. Packing and Pool Time. Do you want to know what's great about moving? Look at my apartment as of today:. Just look at this mess! Boxes to be shipped via freight. Bike box, newspaper for wrapping, half-packed container, and stuff for Goodwill in my back hallway. Half packed boxes in the middle of my living room. Extra boxes next to my front door. And moving crap all over my counter. First, banana bread:. Then, oatmeal raisin cookies:. Now I have to pack the bakeware. Sigh. Plus, t...

Chickytavaland: Harry Potter Mania!
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/harry-potter-mania.html
Saturday, July 21, 2007. I was really trying to wait until I got back to DC to purchase my new Harry Potter book (one less piece of crap to deal with in this tiny, half-packed hellhole apartment and one less thing to weigh down my poor old Accord in the mountains), but as I may have mentioned before, I am not always the best at resisting temptation. So here it is. Copy of the last Harry Potter book. Yes, I tried to recreate Harry's pose. Indeed, there are few things I appreciate more than adults festooni...

Chickytavaland: A Super Saucy Saturday
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/super-saucy-saturday.html
Sunday, July 15, 2007. A Super Saucy Saturday. I must say that this past Saturday was one of the more colorful days/nights in my life. I woke up with a bit of a hangover from a tapas dinner party I attended at B and A's Friday night (A - congrats on passing your thesis defense again, BTW! I didn't even drink that much, but I'd brought some Turning Leaf Sauvignon Blanc that gave me the worst headache I've had in a long time. Buyer, be warned. This was the view down one of the alleyways of musical equipment.

Chickytavaland: Maybe the Cutest Girl in the World
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/maybe-cutest-girl-in-world.html
Tuesday, July 10, 2007. Maybe the Cutest Girl in the World. I've decided that if I ever have a daughter, I want her to be just like the 3-year old I babysat for last week (and this afternoon. and next Sunday). Smart, creative, funny, nice, cute, outgoing, patient, considerate, loving, articulate, cuddly, sweet, goofy, never bratty, and quite possibly the world's most perfect little kid. Here we were chasing each other around the house in our version of a parade. But she wouldn't slow down for a good photo.

Chickytavaland: My Last Monday in Tucson
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/my-last-monday-in-tucson.html
Monday, July 23, 2007. My Last Monday in Tucson. My time in Tucson is drawing to a close. Yep my computer will be packed up this Friday (when the movers come to collect my stuff), and the blog will die. at least until I determine if I'll have time to do one in DC. I don't have much to report today except the usual. babysat, went to the gym, read Harry Potter, and dismantled my bicycle to box it up for shipping. My favorite night out in Tucson. I guess I'll be needing those soon. Sigh. David Lynch is a fr...

Chickytavaland: Mexico & Margaritas Before Moving On
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/mexico-margaritas-before-moving-on.html
Thursday, July 26, 2007. Mexico and Margaritas Before Moving On. Katie and Jordy know how much I love Mexico so they took me south of the border this evening for a farewell dinner at La Roca, my favorite restaurant in Nogales. Here's a photo blog of our evening:. Katie prepares to cross the border for the first time. It was, in fact, a successful crossing. What with the one Mexican cop on duty who barely glanced at us. I do love mariachis. This is definitely an American abroad kind of shot. Afterwards, I...

Chickytavaland: My Friend Lizzy, Modern Day Saint
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/my-friend-lizzy-modern-day-saint.html
Wednesday, July 18, 2007. My Friend Lizzy, Modern Day Saint. While I'm fucking around babysitting, taking photos of dumb statues on campus, planning karaoke parties, and drinking aimlessly at Plush, my friend Lizzy is saving the world. Really. I met Lizzy in DC in 2001, right after she got back from a backpacking trip around Thailand. She and I were in a close group of friends who used to meet every Monday night for "Ladies Night Billiards" at Bedrock Billiards in DC. To help rebuild homes for the poor.

Chickytavaland: Yet Another Flat Tire
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2006/11/allow-me-to-reiterate-something.html
Tuesday, November 21, 2006. Yet Another Flat Tire. Allow me to reiterate something mentioned in my blog over a year ago. I am a flat tire magnet. Here is photographic proof of the latest annoyance. One full inch of nail (total length undetermined) sticking out of my sidewall. I don't know why tires hate me, but I'm sure starting to hate them. So in my final recap of two weekends ago, I must now recount the mildly tragic story that occurred two Sundays ago. Really wanted to do. At the elusive Kitt Peak.

Chickytavaland: I Heart Tobias & Mrs. Featherbottom
http://chickytava.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-heart-tobias-mrs-featherbottom.html
Monday, July 09, 2007. I Heart Tobias and Mrs. Featherbottom. Back to the grindstone here. babysat this morning. Washing my car and going to the gym this afternoon. I probably should be packing up more sh*t in my apartment, but for some reason, this lackluster schedule of mine has actually left me with less energy than when I was crazy busy in school. To keep myself occupied, I've been watching all of the episodes in the. This obviously says something about the stupid TV watchers in this country.). AD is...
