:: The Rewind Moment # 1(Waffles, Wellies & Working OH MY) ::

I didn’t have the weekend that I planned, but I had the weekend I never knew I wanted to say the least.

Oh what a wonderful one it was. Where should I begin? I'll just grab and jab at the first thought that comes to mind and right now that would be THE UNIVERSE.

WOW! What a beauty to marvel ...

So my Friday started with me about to call it a night after having the most satisfying conversation with Mum-zz, until "Squirt" made me get up and out and I loved it. He just got added to my cool-cat drop down menu. Late night movies that were watching US, talking about the "What if's" and "What would you do with" was as beautiful as watching the sunset over Manhattan Beach.

This leads me to my Saturday!

My day started fueled by a cinnamon infused waffle, goo gobs of butter and syrup and an egg omelet dripping with red rooster and oozing with cheese (that I keep forgetting to give up). Shout out to Roscoe's on Pico - but your waffles have NOTHING on The Pink Hotel's at 4am ... I ate this meal of champions while "Squirt" dodged in and out of traffic on LaBrea. I was so into my munch that I forgot to window shop at my favorite eye-gasmic spots. This weekend was GRAMMY weekend in Hollyweird so naturally he asked what I'd be doing later. I couldn’t think. I was so focused on tearing off that perfect piece of waffle to dunk into my syrup and maneuver getting it into my mouth without any syrup dropping onto his favorite hoodie that I nestled into that morn. He laughed at me eating my waffles with my fingers then a proud look crept upon his face at me sharing that not so dainty moment with him.

Almost, like we had a secret ... I was his shot-gun messy eater and he, a proud chauffer - our little secret moment.

Fairytale moment ends there and now its work-day number 1 ... shoot on the beach.

The weather I forgot to notice until we arrived at the beach was about 85 to 90 degrees.

I never knew palm trees were so beautiful ... I was literally in AWE of the beach and the great weather we had been blessed with. This is a picture I found on Google of Manhattan beach ... If I could project an image from my mind as I saw it that day you could feel what I felt.


Occupational Hazard & Priceless moments:

• Leaving kit un-attended - Seagulls get curious (!&*^%$*&%)


• Shooting on the beach - Tides come in and my fav leather elf shooting shoes get soaked along with 11 inches of my jeans ...


• Dumping - sand out of my shoes on Sunday - Priceless!


• Tank on E - Rodney (the photog) saying I was going to give you $40.00 but here's $50.00 for gas! OWW


• Finding - 20 buck Wellies for my next beach shoot - SCORE

THANKS UNIVERSE!

I head home throw down my kit, fall into my bed, kick off my clumpy clothes and dwell in the day.
