so we went back to that Mexican restaurant recently and had another wonderful evening, maybe too much so. of course I wore my nude platform corset pumps from Victoria Secret untied all night and the waiter almost tripped over my friend Marni as she was snapping this photo from the aisle.
the manager himself actually came over with our check inquiring if we needed anything else that evening, which was a polite way of saying we overstayed our welcome, sorry!! on our way to the door he got my attention to tell me my shoelaces were untied, I smiled and nodded but kept walking.
it was bitterly cold that night as we made our way back to the car to go back to Marni's place to finish our night and I guess I was a bit underdressed for it in a shimmery black top but we had a great time
i'm generally pretty stable in these, even without tying the laces, but between the drinks, late hour and shivering, I was a bit wobbly walking to my door. I didn't fall or anything but my knee was sore the next day
Each time frame given to the World Cup to be held every four years, appearing in different regions of the planet The Nike Cup This event is a tournament that is held in 42 countries and 24 cities in Europe, Asia and America. The tournament is aimed at young people between 15 and 19 years of age. They are armed to face teams against each other until a champion that represents every country.
The graph-level work in some way becomes a competition within Nike's subsidiaries in each country. Where do the job looks more original, but above all, taking the essence of the place where it will be the tournament.
This year Mexico The Nike Cup held in Mexico City from 17 May to 10 June in various courts of the city. Where the finalist of the tournament will represent Mexico in the Nike U.S. Cup on 10 July.
The concept was developed, was the representation of Calli, which means Temple or House, but also everything that cushions and protects. Under this idea was generated for each zone of Mexico City a Calli. A total of 32 developed Callis, each different in concept and the essence of pre-Hispanic glyphs.
The idea was to create a kind of shield that represents the Callis war. Which are traditionally implemented through signs on walls, posters, blankets, stickers and viral advertising in social networks and other electronic media.
The entire month of May and June were in different parts of the city graphics that proudly represents the campaign graphical essence of our pre-Hispanic roots
A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are over 5700 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
The carbonate minerals all contain one or more carbonate (CO3-2) anions.
Aurichalcite is a scarce zinc copper hydroxycarbonate mineral ((Zn,Cu)5(CO3)2(OH)6). It has a nonmetallic luster, a robin's egg blue color, and tends to form small, delicate needle-like crystals. The specimen seen here is reddish-brown colored, iron hydroxy-oxide gossan having vugs with aurichalcite needles.
Locality: unrecorded (but probably Mexico; if so, possibly from the Ojuela Mine, Mapimí, northeastern Durango State, northern Mexico; the Ojuela Mine has an oxidized carbonate replacement deposit)

Santuario de Chimayó,
Chimayó, New Mexico.
We accidentally stumbled upon the tiny village of Chimayó while traveling from Santa Fe to Taos, and discovered this sanctuary, known as the "Lourdes of America" for its reputation as a healing site. Believers claim that dirt from a back room of the church can heal physical and spiritual ills. The Santuario attracts 300,000 visitors a year. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1970. We happened to arrive during Mass, and the priest (91 years old) came out and spoke with the congregation afterwards. The town is also known for its heirloom chile...possibly the key to longevity? I don't know, but I'm eating a lot of it these days.
We walked down to the local World Cup viewing area, and were delighted to encounter a sea of Mexico fans. The cheering was deafening every time Mexico scored!
