30...

So someone suggested I should blog about turning 30. I don't know what I should say. Perhaps turning 30 is suppose to make you wiser and people will start to listen to your opinions because your no longer in your twenties but really 30 doesn't feel much different than 29 did. Except now I can't say "I'm in my twenties." that phrase has been replaced with "I am in my thirties." YIKES!

I did not have a breakdown as my 30th birthday approached. I was not afraid of turning 30, I was indifferent to it really. I was excited because it's a milestone and with milestones come parties and cake...and it was a great party with a great cake that tasted delicious. I was glad to be surrounded by my closest friends and my family. That is all you can really ask for.

Starbucks just keeps getting bigger.

Introducing: Tall (354ml), Grande (473ml), Venti (591ml), and Trenta (916ml) the new starbucks drink to join the family.

The average stomache can hold approximately 500ml's of fluid. The new trenta coffee size at starbucks will be a startling 916ml's. That is bigger than what your stomache can hold. And starbucks just keeps coffee addicts coming back for more and helping feed the consumers like me (who love starbucks) the option to have a trenta size caramel frappaccino.
I can't believe they can make something bigger than the already quite big Venti (591ml) drink.
It will be interesting to see how popular this new trenta coffee will be.

Doodling with acrylics

A rough sketch...Still has work to be done but I was just doodling with some left over acrylics I had used for something else.

Playing with acrylics....

Swirling acrylics....just for the fun of it. I think it turned out pretty good.
Guitar player....no he's not a cowboy.

Second guitar player. I hope to make a much larger scale of one of the two guitar players on canvas. These were done on paper and it was much harder to paint onto. Plus with this second one, I only had yellow paper, so he kind of blends into the background.

So I was just doodling with acrylics this evening and that's all I accomplished for the fun of it.

365 days

365 days...take a photo a day...I think I am a little ahead of myself on that venture but found that it is a very interesting experiment.

The minion....

I wish I had a few dozen of these guys...a bunch of minions would come in handy right about now. The bad guy on despicable me has it so right when he has tons and tons of these little guys kicking around helping him out.
