Last night I attended the best fashion show ever! It was the Target Kaleidoscopic Fashion Spectacular at The Standard Hotel. Target rented out 155 rooms facing the south side of the Hotel. Following nine days of dance rehearsals on a 20,000 square foot rehearsal stage, 66 dancers performed dazzling choreography. 156 LED lights and a warehouse-sized buildings worth of fiber optic cable  were used to create fast-paced lighting patterns. The show was set to one original musical score by Sam Spiegel, recorded with a 30 piece orchestra, 10-member chorus and traditional drummers at the legendary Capitol Studios, best known as the home of Frank Sinatra.

Since I don’t work to far from The Standard despite the rain I popped a squat on the Highline 3 hours before the show. I figured I could get some much needed editing done and of course score a great seat!

Target provided its guest with custom binoculars for better viewing of the models high above.I was extra excited that @FRANCESHATHAWAY came out to join me.

We had a perfect little date that included freshly popped popcorn provided by Theo 😉

And the show began!It was truly breathtaking!Seriously one of the coolest shows ever! Granted I could barely see the “clothes” but the synchronized lights and dancing totally made up for it!Kudos to TARGET for such a phenomenal job!

You can’t really hear the music.. But enjoy the show!

“Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the way you love yourself, well, that’s just fabulous”
-Carrie Bradshaw

Happy Monday All!

( From this past weekend.. Sun bathing on the roof 🙂 )

Well guys this is how I look and feel today.

I’m on day 2 of feeling crappy with an awful ache in my lower jaw. 🙁 From the feel of it seems like my teeth of wisdom have reared their ugly heads! I’m trying to make a dentist appointment for tommorow.. Maybe I just have TMJ… man who the hell knows…

Can you tell i’m grouchy??….Only thing making me happy right now is my squishy ice pack… :: hoo-hum ::

!!!! UPDATE !!!!

De got me a last minute appointment with Dr. Gwen Engelhard…

A swig of mouthwash, some poking, and 4 x-rays later I have been diagnosed with…. drumroll please….

TMJ

TMJ syndrome is an umbrella term covering acute or chronic inflammation of the temporomandibular joint, which connects the mandible to the skull. The disorder and resultant dysfunction can result in significant pain and impairment.

Apparently, I won’t be getting any wiser anytime soon because I have no wisdom teeth in my lower jaw (yay) but (boo) to a lifetime battle with TMJ….

Also, my dreams of one day getting braces was killed with the knowledge of knowing due to my otroucious cross bite, it will cost 1000’s of dollars and a few oral surguries to get everything all lined up.

No Thank You!

Guess I’ll have to start looking into Veneers… LOL..

So for the next 2 weeks I’ve been perscribed a “soft diet” and 2 Aleeve every six hours….if that doesn’t work….. I’ll have to get a night gaurd. YIKES!

So in lieu of my “pain an suffering”

Doctor’s orders! 🙂
