neil, he literally had to be pried away from my hands. it was an un-mutual, pre-mature break up, i can assure you. i just hope that we can make like stevie nicks and lindsey buckingham and it will be the best thing to ever happen to our careers.

and if you ever get lonely, you just go to the record store and visit all your friends.

pretend this is the poltergest II trailer...
i have a stack of magazines/biographies to catch up on.
go on a quest to make the perfect macaroon, this starts wednesday.
own every flavor lip smacker i can get my hands on...
is it cheating if i already own half of target's stash?somewhere around here is where i rediscover how many joys pen and paper can bring.
make fun of every one's (or maybe just mine and enza's) lunatic hero, spencer, and his odd infatuation with crystals.
continue my on-going search for "face off" on dvd. oh, add every beatle's movie released to my list too. wait, i need every season of "that 7o's show" as well. ok, i am done.
i just decided i will also be drinking as much orangina as i possibly can before i, myself, turn orange and cry seltzer tears.
i also plan on spending a majority of my summer in los angeles with the love of my life, more commonly known as my best friend. we will cover ourselves in temporary tattoos, attend flea markets, cool off in chipolte where i will try to convince her i hate chipolte as i stuff a burrito down my throat, plenty of bobage and tomage, and of course what's summer without fighting the masses at the beach?
it cannot be summer without magical "pet sounds" following me wherever i go.
so, yes, if sudden scents of sea salt waft through your nose, you are unexplainably happy, and your ears are filled with a dreamy orchestral masterpiece, i am probably walking around nearby.

you were a goddamn prince sally kid.
you changed the way the world viewed literature.
you changed my life - no one has impacted who i am more than you.
i salute you. you, my hero.

i just might be a hypocrite...
the point is - i need them. they are majestical jewels that must be worn upon my feet. i am pretty sure that stevie nicks would have worn them back in the day, which is probably why i am going to save (omg i cannot even believe i just wrote that, saving is something that i have NEVER done in my life) to buy them for myself as a graduation present.
some other instance in which music + fashion = bananas...
this morning out of boredom i glanced through the iTunes celebrity playlists. i skipped dumb people (99% of the playlists) and found that some people i thought would be interesting (ahem armani) were in fact - not. so then i noticed rachel zoe (by far the most entertaining person i have met by way of television) and had a feeling her playlist would be bonkers. i click - i die! so today, she is my spiritual soulmate.
rachel zoe's playlist
love street by the doors
(i am not going to admit i actually like this song because in almost famous lester bangs called jim morrison a drunken bafoon which means that i cannot like him either even if he is ridiculously good looking, like really ridiculously good looking)
bittersweet symphony by the verve
(ok, maybe not this song...)
tiny dancer by elton john
(you now understand where i say "spiritual soulmate" also she mentions almost famous - i repeat spiritual soulmate, but, just for today)
everybody hurts by rem
(i actually really really really hate rem but i always find this song comes on the radio at inappropriate times which makes me laugh, which i guess is the point...)
shes always a woman by billy joel
green eyes by coldplay
lay, lady, lay by bob dylan
(a billion sighs)
peggy-o by the grateful dead
jungleland by the boss
landslide by fleetwood mac
(sigh)
all i want is you by u2
dont tell me by madonna
(maybe not this song either...)
get together by the youngbloods
oh, you were crazy if you thought i would not post tom petty's playlist as well. it is only five songs, but still, it is pretty damn good. i have just been getting into rhythm and blues (no, not r&b or beyonce, i am talking joseph spence blues blues with harmonicas and banjos, that real dirty southern stuff.) so, it was kismet that i came across this today (good thing too because you know i purchased it without even thinking to see what was on the playlist.)
tom petty's playlist
high heel sneakers by tommy tucker
tulane by chuck berry
i can't be satisfied by muddy waters
i can't stand myself (when you touch me) by james brown
(in his commentary explaining why he chose each song tp writes "talk about funky!" under this song, pretty much funniest thing)
you don't love me (you don't care) by bo diddley
happy listening!

as my mother would say ... back to cool!
i thought with the color scheme of the ric rac it would be best to just use muslin.
i wish you could see it in person, so cute!
this is my second bag that i just had to use for myself!
as you can see i went a little overboard on the creative level.
i used some leftover muslin that i had hand painted a while ago.
do you not love the tiny flowers?
i have no clue where the idea for the zipper pull came from. i just woke up this morning and went right to making it. maybe i had a dream about it?
my freshman year of high school i decided that it was time to grow up. the hello kitty notebooks had to go! i bought myself a simple binder and made the cover myself. every semester i would create a new collage. i have kept all of these from the past seven years. i love looking at them and seeing how much or even how little i have changed.
i apologize for the glare! plastic is just so shiny!
i never knew what to do with the spider (why i even made a spider mystifies me, i am terrified) and somehow sewing it onto this back pack felt perfect.
for those heading back to school - good luck this semester!

zia records was right across the street so naturally we just walked right on over. i was surprised to find wings wild life (linda and paul mccartney) in my hands.
