Went to Tulsa this weekend for my friend Whitney's bridal shower....here are the sensored pictures, before we got into the whiskey- so very ladylike

THIS WEEEEK!

Thursday, we will be in The Woodlands at Dosey Doe's...this is our first time to play in the Houston area. Rob Albertson & Ray Rodriguez (of the infamous Mystiqueros) will be joining me for a sweet & lovely whiskey-latte filled evening.

www.doseydoes.com

Check out their site, this place is damn cool. The Dining/Live Music Hall is a 150 year old barn from Kentucky. Yeah, it's gonna be one of THOSE nights.

Now, I hate pushing all our shows on blogs, because I believe The Blog is sacred ground for deep thoughts & personal ruminations, but I MUST also tell you about Sunday:

THIS SUNDAY @ Nutty Brown Cafe we get to play a benefit for Cooper's Quest. I am posting their poster below with all the info, and I really feel strongly about this. This is why we all do what we do, and it matters that you show up for this little dude. PLUS..Jim Spencer will be our host, and who doesn't love a Jim Spencer? He's the greatest meteorologist ever to exist!

See ya Sunday. LOVE LOVE, Autumn

amazing

Pregnant!

My friend, Tricia, is 7 months pregnant with her 1st baby. We attempted to register at Babys R Us today. We had no clue what we were doing, but we were very excited to park in the 'expectant mothers' parking spot.

Then we played with the shelter doggies outside of petco. This is the pooch we want...

Here's what we do:

kiss your man or woman as often as you can, and then pray for our soldiers in Afghanistan.

happy bday!

noreply@blogger.com (Autumn Bloggumn) — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 19:11:00 +0000

So I've been blogging the past 2 weeks from my phone, and just realized it isn't working. oops.

Today is my little sister's 24th bday. I tried to get her a gift card & she got mad because it wasn't "thoughtful" enough. SO - I put my thinking cap on & came up with a brilliant, personalized idea, just for her. She's going to open it tonight, I'll post a pic of it after she opens it-

HAPPY BDAY SUNNY!

more soon...gotta go to Walgreens...and spend all the $$ I don't have on OPI nailpolish & mascara.

good day to you, thanks for checking out the site!
love,
autumn

In lieu of men, please send flowers

In lieu of men, please send flowers.

Today I had lunch w/my best friend, Bree. We ate at Piccolo...they serve homemade Horchata, I highly recommennd it. (That sounds as if I knew what Horchata was prior to today...not the case. I don't even really know what Horchata is, other than pure deliciousness with cinammon)

During lunch, we obviously discussed our loves lives, over Horchata & Refried Beans (sounds like a country song). Now, I don't mean to brag, but between the 2 of us, we've dated some real winners...I'll spare the bitter digs on ex-boyfriends, but they were all douchebags...with the exception of one of Brees, who we affectionately call 'Booger'

So here we are, single as can be yet still needing to fill some awkward void that is felt from being a single, twenty-something female. I'm not really sure how to describe that feeling other than "fairly small & insignificant in this giant world, still a little shaky at times, still kinda cute, but not as trendy as we used to be" (not unlike a chihuahua)

Basically...we need to feel worthwhile during our 'drought', so what did we do? We created something cool. We went to Home Depot & dropped some cash on annuals & perennials. (That sounds as if I knew what annuals & perennials were prior to today...not the case...had to call our moms & ask what to buy). We planted our asses off!! For hours and hours, we dug in the dirt & played in the soil & got ourselves filthy like we used to do when we were kids, except now we drink wine. Lots of wine.

We planted a beautiful little garden & completely delighted ourselves with colorful pots, filled with Mother Nature's goodness...flowers & plants & various funny-shaped cactii. Love ferns. Now, we have life, something to take care of that won't talk back. It is perfect!

It's our new bonding technique. Plant plants. Each week, we will go to the nursery & spend $5 on something new, and add him to the garden. By the end of summer, the city will rename our garden "Ladybird Autumn & Bree Wildflower Center' -- quite a sight to behold.

"life's a garden, dig it" -Joe Dirt

stop thinking so much!

I tried to write a new song today. I sat down for about 20
minutes until I realized it wasn't working today. This is what
happened in my brain as I was trying to think of lyrics:

"love, love, love, love, la la la la....

Oh, Rihanna. I can't figure it out. I'm sad. She's so young...

ok. music. love, love, all you need is love....

...Wow...I have some serious energy right now. To avoid a hangover in
the morning, take 'Chaser Plus" -- get it at Walgreens, I swear it
works wonders. I drank a lot of wine last night, no hangover today,
just can't focus. Ok, focus focus focus love, love, love...

Hahaha...'Sugalumps' by 'Flight of the Concords' is damn funny. JB would think that was funny. love, love....

...I can't believe my older brother quit his job on Friday. I'm proud
of him. I give him 30 days of blowing off steam till he gets bored
& saves the world.

People that bitch about America just piss me off. Either help or Go away. Quit bitching. It does no good.

...I miss Sam Baker. Love.

I'm glad we are gonna experience SXSW this year. I was jaded &
bitter and jealous until I got accepted as an official artist. Now I'm
on the bandwagon. Total poser, but it's pretty cool that people pay
money & travel & wait in line to see music they believe in.
Why was I so cynical?

...L-O-V-E...

I wonder what's happening on Facebook. Maybe I should change my
status. Thanks to Facebook, nobody ever has to go to their 10 yr
highschool renunion.

Wow, older people sure like to complain about the internet a lot. I
think technology is cool. Nobody really wants to go to their 10 yr
reunion, anyway. please quit bitching.

How many chucks would a wood-chuck chuck if a wood-chuck could chuck norris?

Austin really is a cool city, especially as a single gal. Hmmm...will
I be single forever? At this rate, yes. I'm okay with that.

Why does queso have to be so delicious?

I need to go to yoga.

Love, love, love.

What would happen if every single person that could give blood actually gave blood?

Saw the police give a homeless man a ticket the other day, is it
illegal to panhandle now? What is right & wrong? Who am I to
decide?

God, it's beautiful outside. It's a great day to be homeless living in Austin, TX. Beautiful weather!

Love, love, lerve, amore, amur....

hmmm...

maybe we should book a show in Santa Fe...and bring the entire musical
family & stay at Worrell's. I think everyone would like that...

...I don't understand what is happening on "Lost" anymore. Sawyer is so hot. I like that name, Sawyer.

....Everybody that I love is healthy right now, that has never happened. I love it. Maybe I'll write about love...

I wonder what is happening on Twitter....

I wonder what I should Twitter about...

Maybe I should blog about it instead...

I need to clean my house...

OK, I'm hungry now. Need to water the plants & feed my doggie. This song will have to wait till later. "

the end.

Home from Colorado...such a fantastic trip, I'm so proud of our little traveling band. There were definitely many memorable moments, especially during the shows...unpredictable & priceless instances that can only happen during live performances. You can't write that stuff. So fun, we met a lot of cool people too.

Sam (tour manager) got tons of footage on his trusty video cam, no doubt he will post on here as soon as he edits out the offensive stuff. For those of you that don't know Sam, Sam is like Chuck Norris, only stronger. For example, we didn't fly home...Sam just threw the plane through the air. It's why we landed 20 min. early.

On our way...

I've been painting walls all day. My house is very blue...the greatest color in the box.

Bree and Sunny came over to help...of course we painted wieners and profanity on the walls before we painted over them all...will we ever outgrow thinking that is funny? I hope not.

my Twitter

noreply@blogger.com (Autumn Bloggumn) — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 04:36:00 +0000

Something I've noticed this week: I'm very self-conscious of my Twitter!

I don't know why, but I don't want anybody to REALLY know what is going on with my Twitter...so I sometimes lie about it. If anyone really knew, they would be shocked. Especially my parents. They would be so disappointed that I was disrespecting my Twitter.

I have come to accept the fact that I'm in the entertainment industry, so my Twitter is a marketing tool. But to be brutally honest, I get nervous when people look at my Twitter all day long, sometimes 4-5 times a day. And they never call or write, they just use my Twitter for their own cheap thrills. It can be hurtful.

Ever since I started really playing with my Twitter, my Blog is suffering. What's a girl to do?

No clue what I'm talking about? twitter.com/autumnbouk

(this blog is in support of my friend Tina. Her yahoo was broken the other day...keep her in your prayers)

Merry Christmas!

...then off to phoenix for a show. This is Sam's bag...he's color blind and didn't realize he bought a pink bag, but he knows now!

It was a big week. Unfortunately I've been really sick through most of it, but hopefully I will be back to normal soon. We leave for Tahoe on Tues. Lots of pics documenting the entire vacation if you are interested...check back often :)

Love and thanks to the beautiful people in my life. I feel like i have great great friends that are truly genuine and good. I'm very lucky.

Grey's Anatomy recap

noreply@blogger.com (Autumn Bloggumn) — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 05:17:00 +0000

Watched Grey's with my sister tonight...cried like a baby too. That show is still going strong. Here are my thoughts on tonight's episode:

- Denny. I dig his hairy man-chest, but how will they wrap this storyline up? I don't quite understand why Izzy is sleeping with dead people. I don't judge her for it, we all have our things.

-Poor Carev. His face gets real contorted when he's happy.(i.e. when he told Izzie he loved her, he got 'gay face'...as perez would say) not a fan.

- The Ray LaMontagne song in the background was stellar.

- The sister scene was completely relate able & made me feel fortunate I was sitting on the couch next to my sis.

- Is it just me, or is Yang's new guy really hot in a Chuck Norris kinda way?

- McSteamy. Is. So. Effing. Smoking. Dirty. Hot. TEAM LEXI, all the way.
