on the table

it's never really winter in san diego... but here are a handful of very pretty fall/winter (winter may be a stretch) table top styles i found on apartment therapy.

just another share from one of my awesome coworkers. it's a wonder how we get so much work done... haha. 

hello, yellow.

i love apartment therapy. i'm a blog addict - i will eventually get around to organizing a post of all the blogs i'm obsessed with but i wanted to share one of the apartment therapy house tours. it's so warm and inviting but sophisticated and the global appeal really makes me want to just hop on a plane.

what do you think of this house? love it? not your style? i'd love to know!

for the full tour visit apartment therapy.

uk, great britain & england - oh my..

one of my coworkers posted this on facebook. if you're a travel nerd like me, you're going to appreciate this condensed but thorough explanation of a complicated geo-political situation. it's quite funny too. enjoy.

definition. longing: a yearning desire.

i miss you.

working out with usher

so i'm a huge usher fan. always have been and always will be. he's coming out with some really good stuff and i just wanted to share some songs from my workout playlist (to keep it light). enjoy!

i made the decision to keep it to some favorites from the last few albums otherwise we'd all be reading this for a while!

and the beat goes...

- usher, scream - looking 4 myself

- usher, lemme see - looking 4 myself

- usher, 2nd round - looking 4 myself

- usher, euphoria - looking 4 myself

- usher, hot thing - looking 4 myself

- usher, monstar - raymond v raymond

- usher, more - raymond v raymond

- usher, dj got us falling in love - versus

- usher, hot tottie - versus
