Fortunately, it is not at all something so somber as one might think.
Instead, it is mostly bright, true blue; occasionally a splash of teal, turquoise, or crisp navy. Everyday I want to wear it. I don't, however, own a ton of blue, so I am in the process of acquiring and accessorizing.
According to the color wheel pro:
Light blue is associated with health, healing, tranquility, understanding, and softness.
Dark blue represents knowledge, power, integrity, and seriousness.

I completely agree.
It also reminds me of the spring sky, accentuated with delightful puffs of clouds and brilliant sun.
Yellow, too, seems to be catching my eye over-frequently. And I'm picking up all sorts of things in bright canary or neon. Fitting at the moment, "Yellow produces a warming effect, arouses cheerfulness, stimulates mental activity, and generates muscle energy." (via)
The warm weather is promising all sorts of opportunities for delightful adventures, spurred on by more thoughts of making sure I'm LIVING My life without regrets.
Beginning with our lovely Easter Weekend (which seems to have been hidden by the ominous and cathartic "mind fuck" post):
The spoils of our Easter PBR Hunt:
Kathy, Baby Taylor, Shaun, Cassie, Tanya, Lauren (up a tree), Tiffany, Alexis, me, and Antonio.
Behind the camera is Emma, Frances, Erick, and Ashley.

And what other adventures will we be having, you ask? Well, this week has been spoiling ourselves with girl time; Nails (in sparkly blue, of course); taking third at trivia with our all girls team "Teeny Weenies" (When we're loaded with boys we're the "Thunder C*nts"); and birthday dinner with fabulous people for the fabulous Alexis at Mai Tai.
For the weekend? I don't want to give it away. But rest assured it involves another weekend in the "big city" (I'm going to have to start paying Frances rent), lots of sunbathing, some cowboy boots (I know! I won't spoil it. I plan on bringing the big camera to capture the moments), possibly some wine and beer (which I haven't been drinking, well, mostly. I had that one on Tuesday).
And next week is road trip to Utah for Snow Patrol and catching up with friends. And May and summer....so far the line up is entertaining and promising.
So if you have an adventure in mind, don't keep it to yourself. If we inspire you to have an adventure of your own, let us know!
Keep Calm and Adventure On!
And a song for the period... a little GRAY OR BLUE.
