So stoked to head up to LA for the DABS MYLA exhibition at Known Gallery yesterday. Melbourne crew! Great to Have Tom and Claire stop over for a bit after their trek through South and Central America. Happy travels guys x (thanks Tom, for the pic).
Rosie - cutest in the house!
Pretty sure I want this:
RIME
These two, pointing.
I was searching for some kinda, 'I'm back' song to reinforce the fact that the blog is ohhhhn again. But, could not resist this...
Turn it up, bitches!
We didn't forget you, my friends, there was just A LOT of shit going on for a LONG time and even before my previous promises to 'be back' weren't exactly upheld, now is the time. Yes, there's a little more updating to to with the layout (thanks for being patient), I really wasn't feeling the last one. Too restrictive you bastards! So hope this is a little easier on the eyes.
So after moving OS, going back and forth a little, getting married, getting married again (same guy you crazies!), getting settled in Cali, I finally feel like I have some spare time and energy. YAYS.
I guess you have seen most of my pics to date, since I forced everyone who looked at Mayoress to watch a live feed of my Insta pics - PS follow me: hayleymei - so I won't update you with the same. All I want to say that being back in Melbourne was so fantastic, but my god people, I cannot keep up with all of the drinking and fun times. Sure it was amazing, but fuck I am tired. Best part was getting to hang with the besties (and new friends), love you all and miss you tonnes. SO sorry to the people I didn't get to see, even though we ended up being there for a long time, it was pretty stressful day by day.
Good to see you again, guys and gals. X
Still here, friends.
Should be back to Cali soon so I can make the blog pretty again and do some real posts x
Hello! I'm on vacation, hence the lack of posts. In the meantime I'll post some pics up along the way.
Stand by for another makeover when I return. This layout is really pushing all the wrong buttons.

LA Times! The crew headed up to Hollywood over the weekend for Eat Your Art Out 5, a fundraiser for the Angel City Derby Girls. A much needed break from the usual and an excuse to eat and drink our way through LA.
First stop was the Jewelry District which is like Disneyland for me, SO EXCITEMENT! Then next up we hit Pattern Bar in the Garment District. Unlike last time when CC was in town, there was actually alcohol in our cocktail glasses. I would post a pic of my drink but I knocked it over while trying to line up a shot. Lesson learned. Instead, here's a pic of the dudes.
Oh you fancy huh?
After giant beers and eating the most amazing chips and salsa at Guelaguetza, it was onwards to Titmouse in Hollywood for Eat Your Art Out 5.
I saw this little guy at Home Depot last week and COULD NOT STOP THINKING ABOUT HIM.
He is mine now. Do you love him?
I've been pretty good at this lately. Sorry eberyone! Although sometimes it's just easier to live life rather than bang it onto a keyboard. Don't get me wrong, I love to blog, but sometimes other shit gets in the way...that, and I'm also lazy.
We've been busy working on wedding #2 (back at home for the fam this time) and as we've found, as laid back and fun you want the day to be, it is the ultimate stress out.
I am REALLY looking forward to being in Melbs for a couple of weeks, so save some hang time and a drink for me. I'll probs see you around Section 8, Stalactites, Chinatown, Sushi Monger and all of that goodness.
SO, how has your 2012 been so far folks? Can you believe it's FEB already!!!!?
I've neglected blogging for a bit. Why? I FINALLY got a new phone and I've been reliving the joys of being in contact on the go again.
Since the great iPhone dropping of 2009 I've been using a $20 pay as you go phone. I could only call and text and pretended I was pretty stoked with it. The great thing is that my phone bill was $0. My phone bill was $0 because the phone was such a pain in the ass to use.
Just like my very first mobile phone ever. This guy, in blue:
Check it out! It takes batteries! Also it would only text in caps. So embarrassing.
Expect to hear from me more often people! x
In San Diego, you'll have to dream of a white Christmas elsewhere, because it was pretty much summer for the week. I can't complain though!
Let's say the day was mega relaxing and I ate a lot of cheese. A lot.
We got this sweet Terrarium from Erin
Santa also read my new years resolutions, I got some books. The Mr Boston Official Bartenders guide so you can all get boozed when you come to my house, Kitchen Confidential (Ooh la la!) and the Complete Book of Home Preserving. THAT'S RIGHT! I'm going to thinking of preserving things.... other than Maraschino Cherries. NERD ALERT!
Happy holidays Southern Hemisphere! Check out our Christmas tree, we had to cut the very top off to fit it in the house. While it isn't Christmas in Northern Hemisphereland just yet, I got an early present from work. HOW DID THEY KNOW??!
