Die Antwoord: 51/366


One of the best concerts we have been to, Die Antwoord, the South African Zef rap-rave crew consisting of NINJA, featured in my photo above, YO-LANDI VI$$ER and DJ HI-TEK. Their lyrics are performed in Afrikaans, Xhosa, and English. We danced our booties off!! I almost didn't go as I had just started feeling ok. Thought I would be a responsible adult and what not. Luckily for me, Y convinced me to go and I was so glad I didn't miss this experience. SO FOKKEN AWESOMENESS!!! I just slept for the next couple of days afterwards.

Find them on the interwebs: Die Antwood (official site)

Truly my faves at the mo. Basically, I've been playing their cd's  non-stop since the concert. Every single song on both albums rocks my socks!!! First time that has ever happened, ever!

Winston: 50/366


This is Winston, so named as he is from Winston-Salem, NC. He cuddled with me while I was sicky. He was a gift from Y on my first trip to NC. He also works really well as a neck roll with my head propped on his big belly.

Not Dead




I was sick with a nasty weirdo flu for almost two weeks, making me very swamped in all parts of my life. Regular colds & flus are always worse with me than most peeps due to my sinuses and susceptibility to laryngitis.

I've been taking pictures but haven't had a chance to fully edit all of them and upload etc. Some are from the sickly perspective of 'just take a picture already and get it over with', not very excited about those.

I'll be uploading when I can, trying to catch up and hopefully get back to doing one each day.

I started doing my C25K again but developed a problem with my right knee causing me to have to stop all that. My right knee has always been a little bitchy troublemaker since I was a little kid and messed it up. Le sigh...

Hope you all are well.

It snowed here yesterday, wtf?

A Stolen Moment: 46/366


Ugh, I'm super sick with the flu. Ugh.

I caught this from my perch on the sofa. As you see the iPhone 4S camera still has some limitations. Wish this was clearer.

This is a sweet moment, so I used it anyway. Zira loves to perch on Y's leg since she was a kitten. At this moment, she kept refusing to get off as she was enjoying her daddy time. :)

Be Mine: 45/366


Zira's sexy Valentine.

Hope your day was filled with love.

We spent the whole day together on the sofa. Sneezing, coughing, knocking out movie after movie in our Netflix queue. We had fun sending each other electronic valentine's since any other typical gesture was out due to us both being so ooky.  The following were especially appropriate due to our circumstances:

NyQuil Haze: 44/366


We've both been sick the last few days. Y more than myself but as he is getting better, I am getting worse. I've been too sick to edit and post much. Will update these posts in a few days with more/better info.

*It's now Thursday the 16th and I am full on flu girl. Y went back to work today as he is better. He caught it first at work. He had been working from home for the last 6 months, so awesome, but last week he had to be at the client site. Turns out someone was sick and had gone to work all week sick. Why, people? Why??? They had been cooped up in a tiny office until this person went home super sick on Thursday. Of course that was after they had infected 3 other people at work who then had to call in sick this week. STAY HOME WHEN YOU ARE SICK! Bad enough you are sick but don't take out the whole company and their loved ones, grrrrrrr.

I fought it off for awhile, or so I thought. Turns out I was doomed. No wonder I felt soooooooo tired when I went for my C25K run in the rain last Friday. I was thinking, wtf? I could barely do as well as my first run. No running for me this week, especially in all this rain. I figure I'll just start from the beginning again, hopefully next week.

ugh

Rainy Run: 39/366


Week 1 Run 2 of C25K and I went even though it was raining. It's sort of like I'm the pod person version of myself, LOL.

I'm soooooooo glad when I got my new gear I was smart to give in to the fact that in this part of the world, running in the rain was inevitable. When I replaced my 8 year old Nike Air Pegasus, I went for the Nike Air Pegasus 27 GTX. GTX as in Gortex. Puddles be damned! Luckily, they come in a cool charcoal color with hot pink accents, awesome!

I already owned a really nice compression zip-up from Old Navy but wanted a hoodie to cover my head in the rain. I looked all around but a good running hoodie costs some moola. In the end I opted for the above Asics running hat for a mere $20. I really don't like how I look in hats. Plus it's hard for them to stay on my head. I have a big noggin and loads of thick hair. Even this hat, with its adjustable Velcro at the back, tends to ride up a bit as I move. Also, hats make my big cheeks stand out even more making me look all pointy headed.  [le sigh] This hat is totally worth enduring any hangups lurking inside my great big noggin. It kept my head dry and that brim keeps the sun and rain off my face and eyes. I could see the rain rolling off the sides of the brim as I ran. Not once did any get on my face. I do feel like a horse with blinders on but I think that's why it works so well.

Now, I just need to figure out my pants situation, cause it's a situation [insert Jersey Shore accent]. I'm currently wearing my compression, slightly bootleg, workout pants from Old Navy that were a steal. But the regular is too long even in my runners. The back drags on the ground and today they soaked up all the rain on the ground working their way up so that the entire bottom 1/4 was soaked. I do have a pair of running legging type pants with the zips at the ankle and they fit great, I was able to buy them in short sizing, but I feel too exposed. It's like running in footless tights. I feel naked.

Bolt Of Crazy: 38/366

Today started out with a bolt of crazy news and gloomy dark clouds trying to hover above our heads. However, like my image, it's really all okie-dokie underneath.

This is fakers. I used my Snapseed & PhotoStudio Apps to transform an ordinary day into this dramatic farce. Below is the original image.

Couch To 5K: 37/366


My first steps on my way to my very first Couch to 5K run! I've started, o-my-gosh. If you told someone who actually knows me, they would think you were talking about someone else entirely.

For most of my life, if some workout or training involved running of any sort, I would be the first to bitch and moan. Totally would figure a way around it somehow. I even got my first CrossFit trainer to let me row instead of jog with Y around the block. I'm sure I had a really good reason for him. My mindset when it came to running was: I hate it! No way!


Recently, I came across c25k.com and discovered a 9 week running program. It basically takes any old couch potato, like myself, off their ass and over a 9 week period safely gets them running a 5K or 30 minutes. No joke.

Did my research and it seems like it works. What finally did sell me was Robert Ullrey's Podcasts. This dude is awesomeness! When he decided to do the program he made weekly podcasts to use on your runs, FREE! Besides providing great tunes for your run, he lets you know when to switch from walking to jogging, your halfway point (so you can turn around if you need to) and motivates you along the way without being annoying and all laid out to the C25K running program so you can progress each week. Fab!

I'm an iPhone 4S girl so I'm using the Nike+ GPS app with Robert's podcasts. I just take my iPhone, put on my headphones, start a new run in the app and go. Everything is then tracked to my Nike+ running account online auto-magically. Today it laid out my route, gave me stats for calories burned, distance, time, elevation, fastest & slowest mile as well as average pace. Cool! With this kind of information you can really see how you are progressing and set some nice goals for yourself.

I'm super impressed with the Nike+ GPS app, Robert's podcasts and myself! What makes this so great is that you go at your own speed and if you need to repeat a week, please do. You move on when you feel ready. I've had my share of troubles with my back, hips and knees and although I'm all recovered, I am extremely careful about what I do to my body. I never want to deal with those injuries or pain again. So I go slow. I wear proper shoes, stretch before and after and I don't over do it.

I'll keep you updated as I go through the program.

Whoo, go me!

Cat Attack: 36/366


Found the perfect bath rug for our guest bathroom. Score! Of course there was only one left when I bought it at Bed Bath and Beyond. It's the perfect style, size, shape and color. We've had it for over a year.

Suddenly, a couple of months ago, Zira decided she really loves to attack it. She rolls around on it, hugs it and attacks the crap out of it. Big fun for kitty. The rug however, now has loops sticking straight out all over the surface and stray loops can be found all over the house thanks to our Roomba and Zira's love to play soccer with them.

I've looked everywhere and I found almost the exact rug except it's smaller in diameter. No perfect blue color either but the gray or white will work. Each time I see her go at it I want to save the rug but look at her, she goes nuts and seems to be having such a great time. Her eyes even match the rug color. I can't deny this kitty much, if anything. She does leave our custom sofa and nice chairs alone, thankfully. I guess the perfect rug will just have to fall prey to our sweet little beast.

མགོན་པོ།: 31/366


Our beautiful Tibetan Mahākāla or Goinbo, meaning "lord" or "protector", mask hangs in our entry and it is the first thing to greet you to our home.
Mahakala is regarded as one of the most powerful forces as in the end all things succumb to the forces of the infinite nature of time itself. … Mahakala is able to swallow the whole Universe. Mahakala is relied upon in all schools of Tibetan Buddhism. …
Mahakala is typically black in color. Just as all colors are absorbed and dissolved into black, all names and forms are said to melt into those of Mahakala, symbolizing his all-embracing, comprehensive nature. Black can also represent the total absence of color, and again in this case it signifies the nature of Mahakala as ultimate or absolute reality.
Mahakala is almost always depicted with a crown of five skulls, which represent the transmutation of the five kleshas (negative afflictions) into the five wisdoms.
Mahakala masks are typically hung above doorways to homes or temples in order to keep out evil forces. ~Source

Here is a photo of the full mask on our wall:

Waiting: 29/366


Rainy Sunday. When moving here, I was warned of the rain and thought nothing of it. Being raised in fog and much more a night owl than a sun worshiper, I didn't think it would make any difference to me or my mood. After 3 years, all these gray days really do take a toll. Last month sunset would have been around 4:20 pm and sunrise around 8:00 am. That's 15.5 hours of darkness and it gets really dark around here. I can barely see the roads at night. Even for me it's too much gray. It does get sunny in the summer and in July we get a nice reversal with 15.5 hours of daylight. I think my perfect weather is a slightly chilly day, allowing for a fallish wardrobe, with bright sun. Although, I do love to see fog rolling towards me as well. What can I say, I'm a true San Franciscan.

Y and Z: 27/366


A snippet of our mantelscape. As some of you know from his blog, my husband goes by Yesmar online, which happens to be his name backwards. My name starts with the letter Z and Z has been a long time nickname from friends and family. Also, when writing out our name together it naturally tends to come out as Ramsey & Zarina. I think you get the idea. Basically since we met, we have been Y & Z. I basically love this and take it as fate more than coincidence.

The owl couple are the sweetest wedding favors I've ever received, given to us at my friend's wedding a few years back. They were handmade in Peru, I believe out of tiny gourds, and have sterling silver accents. So awesome!

The Zombie Apocalypse beings in our master bath. We love these finger puppets. I positioned them so they kind of look like they are making out and dining on each other at the same time. Yes, I am a bit weird. They live atop a shelf next to my French Milled Skull Soaps, which it seems, I can't bear to use because I love them too much, even though there are four. We've threatened to make a video with our zombie puppets, maybe one day. I can only imagine how silly it would be and how insane we may come off.

Honey Bear Don't Care: 24/366


Love these Honey Bear jars we get from local Moon Valley Organics located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain range. The honey that comes inside is the best, yum! They don't come with the cute bonnet, those I get from Zira's Grandma Lucy's freeze-dried treats. The combo makes me swoon and I am starting to accumulate a wee stash since I discovered the pairing. Not sure what I will end up doing with them besides ogling in delight. The Honey Bears don't seem to mind the extra frills or attention.

Zira again. She was just too cute asking me to love her. I gave her loads of love and managed to snap a few photos in the process. She really is the sweetest kitty I have ever known. Raised by Y from a kitten, weened too early from her mother, all she knows is love. Before I met her, Y had warned me that she had never taken to anyone besides himself. She took to me immediately and by day three, she was snuggling up between my legs for safety and warmth, she had only done this with Y in the past. Y was amazed but also knew that Zira had basically confirmed what he already knew, that I was The One.

Gaudi Doll: 20/366


My freaky cool souvenir from Gaudi's Casa Milà in Barcelona, Spain. She's basically a representation of the cool chimneys that top the building. When I saw her, I had to have her. Her white tennis shoes crack me up. She lives atop our dresser and as we pass back & forth each day, she blindly walks across the top as if trying to find her way to a rooftop. She is weighty and strong for a ceramic figure, having survived many weeks travel in a suitcase throughout Europe before flying back home with me. She has also endured several moves but I keep a dish just in her way so she does not commit unintentional suicide off the edge of our tall dresser.

I have to admit, I was very puzzled and a tiny bit creeped out when I kept finding her far from her resting spot.

It's still snowing here and we are very trapped now (car-wise). Luckily, we did venture out yesterday, when it wasn't too bad, to run a couple important errands that really could no longer wait. It's all fun with a Mini Convertible until it snows. It was really hard to turn the wheel yesterday, what is that about???? I would have never guessed I would end up living where it snowed. The word is, this was the brunt of it for us and hopefully the roads will clear up soon. At least I was smart to have Amazon Fresh deliver supplies a couple of times just when I realized the snow was really coming. All of you that live where this is nothing, just know, I am in no way used to snow or how to prepare as a native San Franciscan. This is also supposed to be rare for where we live, although it's the second time in 4 winters. I'm now thinking an extra fridge or freezer might be a good idea. I also think we should look into getting the new 4 wheel drive Mini Countryman. O, and to those who drive in this with a regular car and speed through the turns, um hello, I saw you nearly take out our front fence. Luckily the kids who had been playing right there had moved on. Seriously, stay off the road.

Connected Only With An iPhone

I've been without a computer for over a month. Thanks to the lovely Apple folks and my darling hubby, my computer is all fixed and running smoothly, YAYs!!!

As posted, I've been participating in Develop's Project 366 for 2012. Luckily, I had decided to only use my iPhone 4S to not only take the pictures (it's always with me) but to also edit them (time to figure out all these camera apps I've loaded on my phone). Not having my computer really kept me on track and I figured out how to upload to my different sites, including blogger, from my phone. This entire time I've done everything on my iPhone 4S. It was a bit challenging at first but has turned out to be quiet an amazing lesson as to how much you can do with just your phone.

My only problem is when posting through the Blogger phone app, I can't figure out how to include text within the body of the post except for at the very top of the post. I wanted to include technical information regarding which apps etc. I had used as well as other tidbits but I really disliked all the text showing up above the image. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. Personally, I think if the app limits where text is to be placed when images are included, I would rather have the image at the top, or first, followed by any text.

In any case, I've decided to go through and add the missing information to my posts via my computer. This should help out anyone interested in what I actually used to create the images in my Project 366 set.

Hope everything has started out well in 2012 for everyone. We are experiencing our first snowfall today. Lovely, yet inconvenient, as the Mini really can't navigate in the snow and I had oodles of errands that needed doing today.

Cheers,

First Snow: 14/366



Woke up to find snow today. I was happy as I knew today's photo was obvious. It's getting harder and harder to come up with ideas everyday.

Bridezilla: 13/366


I love my little Bridezilla. Had her for ages, over 20 years. She actually spits out sparks as well while rolling on her wheels, so awesome! She wears a full on wedding gown with veil and bouquet. She does have a groom, Godzilla, perfectly matched in size who happens to be a lighter with the flame coming out of his mouth. Had him for just a few years longer but sadly since about week 3 he never worked again. Tried to have him repaired, even in a fancy cigar shop, that was hilarious. The guy tried really hard but to no avail. Should have seen the looks from the serious cigar connoisseurs, LOL. Never been able to find a replacement either.
