KUSAMA: Cosmic Nature

In the beginning of the month I went to the KUSAMA: Cosmic Nature exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden with Eileen, and here are some of the pictures I took while we were there...

We happened to go on the perfect day, it was a little overcast for the most part and not too hot. So we really got to enjoy the gardens and all of the sculptures that were on display. I highly recommend checking it out if you're a fan of Kusama's work or if you just enjoy strolling through gardens. It's an absolutely beautiful way to spend a day.

Fresh Ink | Getting A Matching Tattoo With My Sister...

As you may or may not know, depending on if you follow me on Instagram or not, last week I got a matching tattoo with my sister. And I just thought I'd share the little backstory behind it and some pictures with you guys.

So, for a good while my sister and I had talked about getting a "sister" tattoo. We joked around about having the words "Big" and "Little" tattooed on ourselves, as well as a number of other things. It wasn't until I came across this picture of two roses while on Pinterest one day the we actually decided that this would be a real thing that we'd do.

Even though we decided on the roses months ago, we just never made an appointment with our tattoo artist. About two weeks after my birthday my sister called me saying that she was itching to get a new tattoo and why not it be our "sister" tattoo? She also said she'd pay for it as my birthday present* which helped in the decision making process. So I texted our tattoo artist's wife, who happens to be my friend Eileen, and set up a date/time that was good for all of us.

So last Wednesday after work my sister and I went over to Eileen's got matching tattoos, had an amazing homemade dinner and got to spend time with their incredibly adorable daughter Addi.

So yeah, that's the story behind mine and my sister's matching tattoos.

As soon as they are totally healed I'll post a follow up picture.

*FUN FACT - My sister has paid for both of my tattoos as birthday presents to me.

Catching Up | My Life As Of Late...

So I thought that I'd do an update/catch up kind of post because I've been dealing with little bouts of randomness for the past few weeks.

For example, Justin was out of state the majority of last week for a work conference. So I pretty much did nothing, with the exception of having my sister, Erin, Nicole, Eileen and their kids over to hang out and have dinner. Which was great but the only thing I really did in the seven days he was gone.

The day before he left we had Rob, Erin and Day over (Phil attended our meeting via Facetime) to book the majority of our excursions for our trip to Iceland and Amsterdam. Which I'm super excited for. Justin did a really good job planning out things for us to do while we were on vacation so we could get the most out of our time in both countries.

This past Saturday I worked all day and then on Sunday Justin and I got into an argument so we each did our own things. He went to a baseball game and I spent the day shopping and ~~drinking~~ hanging out with Erin, Day, Toni and Toni's kids. Which was blast -- Justin and I made up when we saw each other later on in the day.

Also throughout all of that randomness my sister ended up in the hospital with what ended up being gallstones. So she is going to need surgery in a few weeks -- I'm taking the day off to be there for her, so I'm sure there will be a post about that.

And then today I woke up earlier than I had to and had the urge to check my bank statement, only to find out that someone had made fraudulent charges using my debit card. Which just ruined my day. I spent hours making phone calls to the bank, etc. and going to get a replacement card. I'm still pretty pissed about it.

In terms of work... For the past week my Department Head has been off, so basically I've been running the ship but not really because God forbid anyone actually tell "Julia" that she is incompetent and thus the only other librarian in the department is in charge (Yes, only other librarian. "Amy" quit back in March but because things were so weird here at the time I didn't want to mention it). So our Director keeps popping in asking how things are going, even though we all know the truth as to what's going on here.

So yeah, that's been life as of late. Nothing crazy crazy fun or exciting, but I am super excited for this upcoming three day weekend and hope you all have a happy and safe Memorial Day.
