And old, but favorite site of all time (courtesy of my big bro). If you are ever bored and want to find out what sort of dog you might be in the next life….check this link out. Last time I did it I was a Portuguese water dog.

My weekend was sweet and simple…
Cooper assisted another photographer at a wedding on Saturday so I did my good ‘ol wholesome Assi things (ate Assi foods, watched girlie Assi movies, started reading a book on how to invest, etc). I realized during my time to myself that I need to make more goals in life. If anyone has a suggestion or a list of your own, I might need it for inspiration. So far, my list includes (in no particular order): skydiving.
Yup, I need some goal making inspiration. HELP!! (I am serious).
Sunday we went to the Thai Temple…a cultish thing to do in Berkeley on Sundays. The people who go to the brunch are very Berkeley-esque and the community aspect of the outdoor seating forces all the interesting characters to mix together in some odd way. Love it.

At a very young age I lost site of my mom in a local grocery store in Boulder, Colorado. I did, however, have the smarts to go to the customer service counter. The kind woman at the counter asked "What is your name little girl?" My reply: "Assi." The woman gave me a look like, "Are you playing with me you little devil?" but she proceeded to blast on the loudspeaker the "We have a lost Assi at the front of the store." Customers throughout the store gagged and giggled, but my mom knew exactly who the woman was referring to: the mullet haired little girl with a tongue too big for her mouth, wearing a leotard, skirt, tights, and jelly shoes (with florescent green laces in them...even though they didn't need the laces). A shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing. I am pleased to report that today I am able to fully pronounce Allison (aka Ali), but the Assi pseudonym has always stuck, evolving into Aszi. As for the shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing? Some things never change.
