Ringtones

I have decided that I need a new ringtone. My current ringtone is Jason Mraz "I'm Yours" song. While I love this song, I've had it for over 6 months now and I desperately want something new. As I was searching the internet for inspirations I found this funny chart.

Chart via Wired.

According to this chart my ringtone should be the default ringtone on my cell. Not too exciting. I'm thinking of going with a Michael Jackson song due to recent events. I'm not sure though. Does anyone have any fantastic suggestions?

ColorMutts

I went to my local arts festival this weekend and discovered a fabulous artist - Lynn Culp. I loved the personalities that she gives the animals. I ended up buying two paintings that look like my two labs. Best part about it? All the money that was received this last weekend from the reproductions is being donated to an animal shelter.

Check out her work here.

Sophie and Bramble - Best Friends Forever

This unusual pair became best friends when Sophie (the spaniel) took it upon herself to give Bramble (the baby owl) his "daily bath." These two friends have maintained their daily ritual and conservationist Sharon Bindon believes that it will be a "friendship that will last forever."

High Line Park

Yet another reason why NYC is so fantastic. The "eagerly awaited High Line elevated park" opened yesterday in New York City. Why is this park so unique? Because it used to be a railroad track (above NYC) that was abandoned in the 1980s and in twenty years nature took it back over. And now, almost 10 years after that it has been turned into a park.

Color Changing Shirt


How cool is this shirt?! It changes colors based on the temperature - white when it's hot and colored when it's cool. It's like the nail polish I would put on my fingers as a little kid and watch change colors under the water for hours but on a much larger scale.

And in case you were wondering, I did end up buying this shirt last week and I have felt like a little kid all over again wearing it.

Dog Bites Own Leg

My pets are always doing goofy things that make me laugh and while the dog featured below is not one of my pets, he sure made me laughed when I saw this clip. Seriously, how cute is he?

Texts From Last Night


A friend of mine shared this site with me a while ago. I had forgotten about it until the morning show that I listen to in the mornings brought it up. Basically it's a site where people send texts that they had received the night before that the sender probably now regrets - that is if they can even remember sending them.

Field Kiss

I'm loving this picture. Perhaps one day I'll recreate it for an engagement picture.

About Me

My name is Lillian Leola but most people know me as Lili. I recently graduated from college with a BS in Marketing and Finance. I am a true believer in the saying "it's the little things in life that makes you happy." The things I am most addicted to are my iPod, my computer and my cell. I always have music on, my computer is shut off only while I'm sleeping and as for my cell phone . . . don't even joke about taking it away. I just might suffer my first heart attack.

My biggest weakness is laughing. I always laugh. At everything. Most often at the most inappropriate times - in class, during a deposition, at a church ceremony. I inherited this trait from my Mother who is even worse than I am. She laughed during a funeral.

This blog is a collection of all my thoughts on anything and everything - from the giggling baby on youtube, to the newest addition to my "Things That Must Go List", to the Obama's new darling dog.

Contact Me

Please send email to lillianleola@gmail.com.

I will read every email and I promise to try to respond in a timely manner but please do not be offended if I don't. It's nothing personal, I just probably got busy with other things.
