Karl Blogazarfeld

How I did it: George Washington wig, black sunglasses, fitted black blazer from GAP, tuxedo shirt from Banana, Black belt from H&M, Gray Sliq Jeans from H&M and some super gay black zip-up boots with a slight heal.





The other Karl. I like mine better. Yes, my hair was a little big... but Karl does not have bangs.

And now... the real deal...


I had a lot of fun and very much appreciated the 30% of people that got my costume.
They were the right 30% ;)

Agreed.

Oh Good, I Fell.

I spent the whole night being very careful that I did not fall. These boots I wore have a reputation for taking me down. I did very well and managed to stay on both feet all night. Steps from my building, right before I made it home safely... I ate it. Never wearing these boots again.

Blogazar Is Going To Hawaii (for a limited engagement)


It's no secret that this has been a rough year. I have done my best to keep it together and with the support of wonderful friends, coworkers and family I am a much stronger man than I was just last year.

A few weeks ago on a trip back to Arizona to visit my family, I received an airline voucher for volunteering to take a later flight. I have been sitting on that voucher debating what to do with it. I was set to use it to go to DC and visit friends and a very special man in my life, but this is probably a bad time. Hopefully the DC trip will happen soon ;) Hopefully.

Hawaii came about because 2 good friends of mine are spending a few days down there. I thought tickets would be too expensive and that my voucher wouldn't cover them... but I was wrong. I got a great deal and leave next week for just a couple full days on the beach. That is all I need. I am sure Hawaii has a lot more to offer than a 4 day trip will allow, but I hope to be back and take it all in someday. For now, a few days on the beach will be a much needed break.

Me and Vange. Me with the Devil Ears I picked up at Walgreens this AM. They are ladies.
I look pissed.

Everyone loves a smarty. I know I do.

There plastic spiders are literally everywhere.


Kids Gym Staff (above and below) and babies in costumes (both adorable). Gotta love it!


Tomorrow is the real deal with my real costume. Can't wait.

PhotoBlog: Werkin'

My desk on a busy day. Typically you wont find a bowl of guac and chips behind my chair, but we had a potluck and that was my contribution. Folks were shocked I could make guacamole from scratch. Really? A Mexican who makes guac? Guau. When I first started I swore that I was going to have a minimally decorated office space so as to not appear disorganized. That didn't last long. It looks like it does because, like with any non profit, there is lots to do and having a tidy desk is far down the list.

Candy corn just ended up up on my desk after the potluck and people keep thanking me for it as if I brought it and placed it there in order to have them stop by and say hello. At first I would say that the candy just ended up there somehow, but now I take full credit for it and they all think I am thoughtful and fun for having candy at my desk. I'll take that.


I like the colors of my phone next to this orange slice that came with my juice the other day. As you may have noticed, I no longer have my blackberry due to an incident with some water on my trip to New Orleans. I bought this $30 phone as a last minute replacement in Phoenix last week. So far its been an good replacement. Its just for phone calls and texting but I love not being able to check email and facebook everywhere I go. I feel free. I don't think I will go back to blackberry.


Chaco Canyon is my coffee shop of choice in the University District. These 2 photos are of the remnants of a delicious celery-type juice I had there a few days ago. I highly recommend this place. I heart the Batista's ;)



My dying birthday flowers just make me sad. I will put them away eventually :(
