& just because we are one measly day away from Friday, here is a new Melificent mixtape: Happiness is a Warm Mixtape. This mix was inspired from songs that make my heart smile and make me feel squishy. Basically, like an equivalent of a warm and comfy blanket. I hope you all enjoy it and that it carries you through to the weekend with a little more bounce in your step or at least a little more love in your heart.

Lovable Friday!

1. Tim Burton's Installment at the MoMA

Is it now considered cliche to love Tim Burton? How Hot Topic of me. I am, as always, envious of all New York City residents because now they can see this exhibit at the MoMA until April of 2010. The exhibit includes props from his movies, sketches and amazing designs from one of the most creative minds in Hollywood (in my opinion anyways). I’ve begged the hubs to take me on a weekend trip to NYC just so I can hit up this event. Anyone that has gone or is going, please feel me in so I can live vicariously through you!

1. New Moon Premiere!
1. New Moon Premiere!

Although I figure a lot of the die-hards hit up the theaters last night at midnight, for the rest of us less brave souls, it’s a New Moon kinda weekend! As I’ve mentioned several times already (can’t help it, I’m excited!), I’ll be going with a group of girlfriends to check out the movie at Cinebistro Saturday afternoon. Cinebistro is for adults only (21+) and provides food and drinks as you watch the movie. I’ve never been because I had been saving it for a special movie (I’ve heard it can be pricey) and I this fits the bill! I don’t have the patience nor the energy to deal with hormonal teenage girls screaming every time Robert Pattinson’s mug comes onscreen so this was my best bet. Not to say that 20-something year olds can’t be just as fanatical, but I’d like to think we know how to class it up a little better. Afterwards, I am hosting a Twilight-themed party at my pad complete with board games, specialty drinks and fangtastic treats. I hope the rest of my little twi-hards enjoy the movie – I’ll make sure to give my two cents on Monday!

Weekend Highlights

Saturday finally brought Augi’s 28th birthday! We worked hard to get the kickball theme right and were kind of worried when we saw the ominous clouds floating round as we were preparing to head to the park. In typical Miami fashion, not only did it rain but it was torrential. Thankfully, it decided to stop for the 4 hours or so that we had the field reserved – perfect! We were amazed at the number of people that showed up and how much fun we had. Our custom team shirts looked great and were a complete hit with all our friends. We had quite a close game, but the Black Robocops took it 4 to 2 in the 9th inning! I don’t know about everyone else, but I noticed how horribly out of shape I was afterwards and am definitely paying for all my antics in the form of some nasty soreness. Maybe we should play more often? 😉

Anyways, thanks to everyone that came out and joined in on the fun (and those that watched from the sidelines). We love you all!

Weekend Highlights

On Friday night, the hubs and I played house with our little nephew, Lucas. Since Where the Wild Things was premiering and we obviously couldn’t make it, we decided to crown our nephew as our own Max and have a wild rumpus right in my sister’s home! We had a great time with him racing around the house, playing with his extensive car collection and taking photos (obviously). He didn’t even give me a hard time when it was bedtime. Such the cutie!
