Happy February Everyone! Thank you to everyone who has been following and supporting Color Your Troubles Away. I appreciate everyone that has come along this coloring journey with me. I can't wait to continue coloring and sharing space with folks! Color Your Troubles Away has led me to brush and hand lettering. In honor of that here is a free printable coloring sheet, "You Color My Heart." Feel free to create your own masterpiece with this sheet and tag me in your posts on instagram (@obliviousnerdgrl), twitter (@OblivNerdGirl), and facebook (Oblivious Nerd Girl) with the hashtags #ColorYourTroublesAway and #YouColorMyHeart Here's to more coloring, more art, and more obliviousness!

From 2006-2010 Diggin' Sunday was a monthly event that happened at Tribal Cafe. It was a chill spot where folks could spin a chill set on a lazy sunday. Mike and I spent many Sundays at Tribal Cafe, enjoying adobo sandwiches and my favorite watermelon juice from Tribal's extensive menu. Friends became family on those many Sundays.
While Diggin' Sunday has been on hiatus, other community members have found a home at Tribal Cafe. Whenever we drive by it always seems to have some band or open mic going on in the space. Many thanks to Joshua Jose, who keeps it moving over there at Tribal.
I can thank Facebook for inspiring this Diggin' Sunday and Color Your Troubles Away collaboration. Thanks to Facebook's "Memories" feature the Diggin' Sunday flyer for the final session came up in my feed. It sparked a thread that has lead to this reunion!
On December 6th, from 3-7pm, join us at Tribal Cafe (1651 W Temple St, Los Angeles, CA 90026) for music provided by Diggin' Sunday and coloring provided by Color Your Troubles Away. If you feel like spinning a few records, bring them and let us know! If you feel like coloring come by with your pens, pencils, coloring books, and good vibes. As always we will also be providing folks with coloring sheets and crayons, markers, etc, however we encourage folks to bring their own supplies! And if you want to simply chill with folks, come by as well!

Weds, September 9th 7-9pm Cafe Mak - Koreatown Park in the nearby parking lot. There is also plenty of street parking. Cafe Make is also near the Vermont and Wilshire Red Line stop. Bring yourself, whatever markers, pens, pencils, crayons you have in your arsenal, and a friend if you are so inclined. If you are local to Los Angeles and are interested in partaking in some coloring RSVP Here. Let's Color! Lately I've been doing a lot of art therapy by coloring. There have been a few articles like this one from Gizmodo and this one from the LA Times talking about the adult coloring book trend. I've had Natural Wonders by Patrick Hruby for several years now. Secret Garden was recently picked up at Target this past Sunday. The practice of coloring has been a great stress relief habit and it has allowed me to use the many markers, pencils, and pens that I have hoarded and accumulated over the years. I put a call out to the Facebook Hive on what the interest would be like for a communal coloring night and now Color Your Troubles Away is now being planned! If you are local to Los Angeles and are interested in partaking in some coloring RSVP Here. Let's Color!
