Water War

I'm really bad with posting lately!

This made me laugh- so stupid, but so funny.
I can also think of a couple people I'd like to play this with. haha

blue

The other day, I was at a friend's house, by the pool.  I took lots of pictures and I realized how much I love the color blue!  Even though pink is still my favorite! :)

But I also got a slap in the face by something pretty disappointing.  Overwhelmingly so.  It really bummed me out.  I'll just add it to the list I guess.

When I look at the photos now, they feel kinda sad and empty, which isn't what I was intending when I shot them.  But fitting I guess, after the day.

To go with the pictures, I thought I'd add the definition of "blue" to the post...  The first (obvious!) and third definitions seem to fit the best.


Definition of Blue   adj  \ˈblü\
1 : of the color blue

3 a: low in spirits: melancholy
   b: marked by low spirits: depressing  < a blue funk> < things looked blue>

house guest

It's been a while since I've posted anything!

I've been experimenting with my digital point and shoot again... I have an old 50mm lens that I don't have a camera for, and by holding it in front of the point and shoot lens, it turns it into a macro!  Fun!  haven't done much with it that I like yet, but I'm sure I'll have some to share soon...

But for now, here's one of my little guest this evening:


Ladybugs are good luck right?  I'd love some luck....

i miss my couch!

I was cleaning up my hard drive today and found some pictures I took of my living room in the apartment... I miss it!  It was a weird mix of new and old and it was just starting to feel homey when I moved out... I miss my couch most though and I'm hoping I'll be able to rescue it from the storage unit very soon.

Anyway, here's a few of the pictures I found.  My curtains always made the light pinkish purple, so the colors are kinda wacky, but I guess it matches the wackiness of the room... :)  the exposures aren't the best in the world either.  Oh well.  Enjoy anyway!


My prized possession: my orange arm chair!  And the little
foot stool I painted and re-covered...
 


The Princess Bride poster, my grandmother's end tables &
old lamps with my funky Target clearance lampshades... my
70's coffee table (which is the one I grew up with) AND the
best couch in the whole world. I kinda have to say that after
all the trouble I went through with Cardi's to get it...


The curtains it took me months to find... They're plaid and one
of the colors just so happens to match my couch PERFECTLY...


GINORMOUS Foo Fighters poster that never actually made it up
onto the wall... chest filled with my mom's old sewing patterns...
my other orange chair, from Burrito Max... my lovely purple-y/blue
book shelf, and my sad, bored, little snowboard...

Buffy "Once More With Feeling" poster... paintings by my
very talented nieces, and my pretty pretty TV...

6-bee

The other day, I started watching Glee.   The creator, Ryan Murphy, created one of my favorite shows ever- Popular.  So I knew I'd probably like Glee.  And I do like it.  It's funny and clever, but it IS also cheesy.  (sometimes good-cheesy, sometimes LAME-cheesy.)

In my opinion, it doesn't top Popular, (yet, anyway) but I'll probably keep watching.

These clips aren't from Glee- they're from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.  That show just NAILS any spoof it does.  This one included.  Even if you don't watch Glee, it's totally worth a watch.  SO SILLY!  :)

Enjoy!
