Mad Men Yourself
_______

i did and it is AWESOME! i absolutely cannot wait until the new season starts in like 3 weeks.
i got turned onto mad men late in the game by two friends {alison + annie} and i caught up real fast.
what an amazingly addictive show i became equally infatuate with dirty martinis... the dirtier the better...
throw a few too many olives in there, maybe have them stuffed with bleu cheese and i am as happy as can be!

for some down time at work go mad men youself:

thumb wrestling for the
WIN
__________

can't make decisions easily... need a little help - well thumb wrestling has been a fantastic way to end disputes since the days on the grade school playground and now some GENIUS has made masks for your thumbs,
a.k.a. "Thumb Wrestling Masks"!

where can you get these aids to easy decision making? at www.patinastores.com, and i am the lucky owner of two of these masks, "El Fantasmo" + "El Sancho".

buy yourself or someone you love these masks. you will never thumb wrestle the same way again!

!LUCHA LIBRE!

making snail mail fun again
______________

if you thought sending actual mail was lame, out of style or just too much work compared to your 140 character twitter messages imagine the look on your mom's face if you sent her a card that read, "personally i couldn't date anyone who wasn't in to saving the planet. unless, of course, they had a really big cock." yeah... that alone is wort the $.44 for the stamp.

these cards from kiss me kwik out of the united kingdom are some of the most amazing and line crossy cards i have ever seen. we sell them at union street papery and you can buy them directly from kiss me kwik at www.kissmekwik.co.uk

always good for a laugh, would win any funny card war and worth the look on your mom's face!

the man... the myth... the o.c. legend...
___________________

when i love something i really love it... and i really love all of jeff armstrong's art! jeff is straight out of the o.c. with the edginess that i love seeing from artists out of san francisco. my all time favorite piece of jeff's art is the half face called "chloroform." it is a 2' x 4' and i want to hang it in my apartment. i have often threatened to chloroform jeff in order to get it out of his house and into my hands.

my point is jeff needs an art show... have a hair salon with empty walls? bar that needs some new patrons?? perhaps you are stone brewery (an amazing brewery out of encinidas,california visit their website here - www.stonebrew.com) and since jeff loves you, you could love jeff and his art!

still feeling like an o.c. transplant
______________

this is me. i am an o.c. transplant that has been living in san francisco for almost 5 years.
i love the city and everything there is to see and do here. i love art, food and music. i have a degree in graphic design and have found myself working as a creative consultant, graphic designer, merchandiser, social media marketer and
all around "jack of all trades" at union street papery in san francisco. i love to create anything and everything
from jewelry to paintings to delicious home cooked meals.

what i want to use my personal blog for is for the things i love, hate and anything in between. i have always wanted to be one of the cool kids, but try as i might i still love britney spears and indie rock, techno music and salsa dancing, lifetime movies and beer pong. that is cool to me.

enjoy.
