insight.

Now that I'm a bigshot business woman, I'll shine a little light on work.

Most of my lunch hour is spend playing Uno with some coworkers. It's quite entertaining screaming Uno in a crowded cafeteria/restaurant surrounded by people trying to have a business conversation... Just keeping myself young.

Unfortunately this week was a little crazy, no Uno.

Coworker quote of the day:
"Fact: I had 1 1/2 leftover donuts for lunch, when sitting at my desk today. I eat 80% less healthy without UNO lunches."

Today

My current obsession with BBB/Masterpiece theater has now been defeated.

Lost

Hello.

These past several months seem some what empty. But c'est la vie. Some years are filled with more red letter days then others. Here are some recent screen grabs to keep everyone entertained.

Rogue

Wow it's been awhile. Let's just talk about red glitter and bullseyes
Here is a poster I made at work.A blog of sorts

Paper & String

Last day of freedom before I start working like a normal person. Loving the colorful books that I picked up at Savers. Sketchbook time.

Barf.

I'm from a small town, meaning there is a lot of 'sale parties.' It's as if they need a reason to get together by buying shitty things at very high prices. Yes, I've been invited to them all, and have refused to RSVP. Everything from candle, tupperware, jewelry, knickknack, pure-romance, and the newest one is called Uppercase Living, they sell decorative "expressions." But when I saw this invitation I died a little inside. WHY, oh why do suburban mom's think it's so stylish to have their living room say "live, laugh, love"? gross. gross.


This bush one is probably my favorite. WTF. HAHA. Oh get a real plant.
Sorry Cousin but there is absolutely no way I would go to this.

New Craft

Helped my friend Chris make some sweet skinny ties. Fun little project. Would love to make more...perhaps with some illustrations? New project?-hmmm.

The Curious Garden

I'm in love with this book by Peter Brown. He has some other amazing work, but this makes me melt.

Spotted

My website has been posted on MNIMAL. Interesting. Wondering by who?

Could be grapes

Craft Day

Today is a lovely day for sewing, folding, and documenting. Watching Coco avant Chanel. Making some skirts. Playing with black paper and shadows. Undecided what these little folded bits will be yet. But something. Yeay.

Mitten Lost & Found

My roommate lost her mitten. It was found on the street. Flat and frozen. I have never laughed so hard.

Justin Gabbard

Great stuff justingabbard.com, saw it on the the New York Times site.

Foot in the Door 4

Here's the piece that I submitted to the Foot in the Door 4 at the MIA. Viewed the show today, it's insane. I missed the opening reception, but I've heard that maybe that's a good thing because the line to see the art was longer then the line to submit work, which is scary because I waited in line for two hours.

I think their shoes in the door was kind of clever. Makes me want to go shopping, a very rare occasion.
