Moments to be treasured
I haven’t written in a while. Between one thing and the other, it seems that the days turn into nights and the nights turn into days. I have a pretty stacked set of goals and they will be accomplished even if it means burning the midnight oil from time to time. Still, I make it a point to live in the moment and treasure those moments, always.

Don’t just live, be alive.
Hello readers. It’s the Queen here bringing to you another post to think about. Or not. It’s entirely up to you.
I was spending a bit of quality time with a friend of mine yesterday and we were discussing my earlier post here about society on a whole losing it’s ability to communicate real feelings. Yes, this friend actually took the time to not only read my post, but to engage me in conversation and exchange thoughts and points of view with me. It was and still is greatly appreciated. Out of the all the likes received on the previous post, according to the stats here on my site, not many people actually read it, and out of all the likes and views, only two actually gave their lovely two cents.

Drums and Fire
Hello all you beautiful people. It’s the Queen checking in after a lovely birthday weekend. I was just sitting here thinking how it isn’t until recently that my birthdays have been something I’ve looked forward to. For the longest time, I had thought that despite my birthday landing on two lucky numbers, I was surely dealt a shitty deck when it came to celebrating my birth anniversary. That is until recently. Last year began something that has turned the outlook on my birthday completely around. Maybe it has to do with my cutting the bullshit out of my life, or maybe it’s been my attitude in general, I am not sure. Regardless of what the reasoning for it is, I am thankful.

Get in Gears
If anyone knows anything about me, they know I love music. I basically enjoy all types of music, except for maybe Bachata. That being said, I am blessed to have friends who are musicians. Amazing friends that support and encourage me, especially with my photography. It’s a winning situation for me. I go out to support them and I get to discover and listen to all different types of bands, taking pictures along the way. In fact, going to local spots and checking out live music is one of my favorite past times. I need to have photography and music in my life. They are as vital as air for me.

Front Row Center
Hello there, world. It’s me again, checking in quickly before calling it a night. I’ve been the busy queen today. Actually, I’ve had my hands tied this entire weekend, though it has been very well worth it. Friday night we went out to check out our favorite local band, Urban Rebel, with some friends. It has been far too long since I’ve checked out any local music and I was needing my fix. So we got dolled up, jumped in the Mini Love and headed out for the night. I love having wheels and Bubo is far too cute. He’s my trusty little steed.

Take time
This weekend came and went far too quickly. Between working late on Friday and having to go in the office on a Saturday. I was really only left with one day off. Lucky for me it was an amazing day. Not only did I actually get to sleep in, I was able to spend some girl time with the beautiful and insanely sweet, MamaJax.

All day, all night
Nothing beats a lazy Sunday. Well to be honest, I’m not entirely being lazy. I am now in the process of going through some 500 photos taken Friday night at Moonchine Bistro. Man, what a night. All 3 bands were fantastic. The Erick Vick Band, Barrioactivo and Urban Rebel all rocked it, though I’m tipping my hat to Urban Rebel again. Those guys never fail to impress. Even on such a tiny stage, they took over and shut it down.

Concrete jungle
Today I’m taking advantage of the fact I arrived at work early and stopping by for a quick post. The topic for today is downtown. I don’t like working here. I really don’t like it at all. It’s noisy, smelly and filled with pour souls. This part of the city can be quite depressing if you think of it. Sure, there is some beauty when you walk out by the bay. However, when it all comes down to it, it is an ugly place. Read more “Concrete jungle”

It is what it is
Happy gloomy Monday morning everyone. Stating the obvious, I will say that I would rather be home and in bed. Ah, my warm and comfy bed, how I miss thee. All things considered, I am ready to face the day. Despite how tired I am, I have every intention of making it the best day I can. Besides, it was a great weekend. Not only did I get to take in a fantastic show, I also got to pick up our Depeche Mode tickets. September can’t come soon enough, says this queen. Read more “It is what it is”
