MY WEEK IN PHOTOS: JULY 25-31, 2016!
The return to Los Angeles from Portland, obsessing over Pokemon Go and Stranger Things, another visit to Harry Potterland, Brand New/Modest Mouse, staying late at work, an opossum rescue story, and Obon!

Enjoy!

Early morning flight from Portland

Sunrise boarding.

Kiki was asleep next to me, I played a few rounds of Stone Age on Zach’s iPad and dipped cookies in coffee.

Back to these goobers!

So bright, so sunny. But I have to sit here to battle at one of the Getty’s gyms.

Yeaaaah! That’s my Clefable at the gym.

I missed the pups, took them on a long walk to say “remember me? Love me again!!!”

Eevee on Eevee

Sad but yummy dinner

Goobs.

Started Stranger Things, can’t stop.

So pooped from all the travel, activity, socializing…my introvert energy tank desperately needs refilling.

Taking some promo pics for the upcoming Tumblr AnswerTime we’re doing.

Still working on breaking in my shoes.

Surprise dog in the galleries

Had lunch with Megan who was up the hill for work!

“I’m taking over a gym” face

MORE STRANGER THINGS

He’s been sitting too close and pushing out the screen…be safe, Tweedy.

Found at Wholefoods! So sweet and yummy…like adult chocolate milk.

A day at Universal

Can’t visit Universal City Walk without going to the sock shop

Zach has been watching all the Harry Potter’s with Maria and Rob while Maria has been in town from Vienna. She’s apparently never seen them…the finale was a visit to Universal. Thankfully we had the passes for the year from Universal from when we went earlier in April.

Maria and Rob gifted me a DOBBY!!!!!!!! My fav.

Fish and chips at the Three Broomsticks

Don’t point that thing at me.

Hagrid’s Hut

Simpsonsland

Last ride of the day? The Studio Tour…over an hour long. Relaxin’ and the wind is nice on a hot day.

Panda Express before rushing out of there.

Feet a lil’ swollen from all the standing and walking and WHAT THE HECK A TAN LINE FROM MY SANDALS.

We arrive to the Forum, to see the end of Brand New and Modest Mouse

Brand New’s crowd was crazy! So fun to watch. Definitely higher energy than Modest Mouse.

Modest Mouse was a bit disappointing live…

The next day! Our Answer Time! You can see all the answers we went through here. We got over 2,000 questions and go to 75 of them in about 5 hours.

Traveled over to the UCLA cons labs at the Villa…oh students.

Then headed down to Santa Monica, a lot of driving.

Wavy Santa Monica sidewalks

Met Miranda and Tristan for happy hour and played Pokemon Go.

Like expensive paletas

Playing Pokemon on the promenade

Pic by Tristy of Miranda and me sniffin’ Lush products.

Sunset overlooking the beach. Sometimes I forgot how close I am to this…

Baby boy

Dobby stole my car keys

And now he lives in my car

Friday

Treating myself to the $5 employee spaghetti deal

And working Friday Flights, posting on the Getty’s Instagram.

Not bad working nights like this.

Then over to a friend’s place in Mid City

Another game night with Code Names

Bye Maria, she’s headed back to Vienna already 😦

Got home and the opossum adventure began

Zach discovered this opossum, too small to be alone…and we had to figure out what to do with it. Cats from the neighborhood were circling it, ready to eat it. It was too small to be alone (according to a random website I looked up). It was like 2 am, I didn’t want to call the numbers on a few opossum rescue people I saw from the SoCal area….so we improvised. Scared away the cats. Gave it water. Put a box around it with water inside so the cats couldn’t get it by morning…and it survived overnight!

Mmmm figs.

Really into reading about my personality type and comparing it to people I know. Curious? Take the quiz here. I’m an INFP…this description pretty spot on.
