documenting my days since 2005
A chilly week in Los Angeles. We go bowling, watch the last of the Olympic games, try a Korean dish for the first time, and Zach breaks his toe and Sufi hurts his back (again). I escape to the Huntington gardens to look for cherry blossoms and have a Sunday sashimi dinner with my parents.

A cloudy start to the week leads into a few sick days at home. I conquer my cold and am determined to see Lunar New Year celebrations at Disneyland before retreating into total Winter Olympics 2018 obsession.

A week with a lot of food: homecooked Japanese food, Superbowl snacks, a big pan of pasta, and more. I also get a haircut, try to make slime at home, and spend an afternoon in the Arts District.

My work week featured Gabby, hand pies, a day at the Getty Villa, and a slip and fall that left me with a stupid bruise that I thought *might* prevent me from ski lessons. But I made it to Park City, Utah, conquered a blue run, spent time with Zach’s family, and we made it back to Los Angeles after a 12-hour road trip. Beautiful food and landscapes along the way.

A rainy few days in Los Angeles (plus a rainbow at the end of it all!), a few too many nights alone with my puzzle (and I forgot to include a finished picture of it, rats), two freelance photography jobs to fill my long weekend, and seeing friends both who have returned from New York recently.

Celebrating Japanese New Year, going back into work, celebrating James’ birthday with very fancy Italian meats, cheeses, and pastas, doodling for dollars, and spending the weekend with friends at a hidden arts district distillery and at Disneyland.

Christmas day has arrived. Spending a week with my family at home, on our annual wine-tasting trip to Paso Robles area, and preparing for a New Years Eve gathering at Kiki’s. Aryn comes down to visit and Tubby is happy. Welcome, 2018!

The last week at work before the holiday break. A gift-exchange with my Dungeons and Dragons friends ends with digging for gems. I fly out to North Carolina to bring gifts and visit Zach’s sister’s beautiful farm and all her little sheep before heading back home to celebrate Christmas with my family.
