AWESOME SINGLE PERSON BEHAVIORS

In an episode of Sex and the City, Carrie talks about her single person behaviors. The things you do that you wouldn't want to, share, show or discuss necessarily. It got me thinking about my special, single quirks. What do I do, or have done that I wanted to share only with myself? So here's my list of awesome single person-ness:

1. Dancing to Fleetwood Mac's Gypsy at 2am in my livingroom.

2. Listening to the same melancholy song over and over.

3. Eating cereal for dinner.

4. Reading romance novels with wine and kleenex.

5. Talking for 4 hours on the phone with your girlfriends about boys, fashion and "the universe".

6. Weeping when you realize that nothing truly stays the same.

7. Feeling at home with yourself for the first time.

8. Relishing your vices, every once in a while.

9. Watching a Miami Vice Marathon with a girlfriend in leg warmers and cut off sweatshirts.

10. Day dreaming.

* in no particular order, but 1 is probably still 1.

ODD. VERY ODD.

I found this when I first went to do laundry...who knew!


it reads: Homicide. Detergent used as murder weapon.

LUCKY?!

I don't know much about lizards, except that if you pull off their tail, it grows back. But I am assuming this is a lucky occurrence all that same!


where do you suppose this little guy is?


above my front door of course!

FOUND - OUR LADY OF THE ORANGES AND PASTA!

I heart this wee lady! So naturally she had to dine with me!!





* ps - she glows in the dark!!

CAN YOU EVEN BELIEVE THIS IS LA?

AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE TO A BIRTHDAY GIFT!!!









* how can one plastic car be so much fun?!!!!

SPOTTED! SPARKLES OUT ON THE TOWN IN HOT NEW RIDE, WEE IN TOW



* c/o LA Times the very next day!

A WEE BIRTHDAY ADVENTURE

Everything needs a little sparkle...birthdays are no exception!

As the sun was settling low on the LA skyline, Sparkles rolled up in her shiny new convertible!

"Nice wheels", Wee mentioned as she slipped into the front passenger seat.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL!" Sparkles shouted, showering Wee with a huge hug.

"You too!"





And so our two heros set out into the warm night. "God, there really is nothing better than living in LA on a hot night." Wee mused.

"Unless you have a convertible! Then it's better!"



"Eyes on the road Crazy!"

"What? Oh ya. Ha."



Driving Sunset Blvd as the lights blink on, the girls garner some attention in their chrome car. Music thumps out a euro dance beat that both sing along to and laugh.

"This is perfect girl. A perfect end to a perfect Birthday!"



Finally they find themselves perched on cliff overlooking all of the city below.

"You know, this is the last time it will be like this."

"Yea."

In unison they share, "Thank god!"

"Hey Wee, can you believe how far we've come?" I mean marriages, careers, cars, trips, money - no money, cancer - we've really done it all haven't we? Wee- ha!"

"Funny. Yes we have. And here's to the big bright twinkly future!" Wee mysteriously pulls a chilled bottle of Champagne from her tiny bag. They sip from the bottle and ponder and dream the way girls do.



They head back to the city below after finding the road.



"Oooo, hey! Smile girl - paparazzi!" Wee squeals.

"What? Where? I don't see - " Sparkles wonders aloud.

"Girl just smile! You're famous now!"

"Oh yea!"

Wee shakes her head in wonder at how even ridiculous fame doesn't change her friend. Or their friendship.

* thanks for a great Birthday recap girl! Same time next year? Luv ya! - xoxo, wee

I HEART YOU TUBE IN SUCH A BIG, BIG WAY -- PART 2

Who else remembers this little piece of the 80's?


the mysterious cities of gold!

I HEART YOU TUBE IN SUCH A BIG, BIG WAY

Holy crap - does this bring back memories!! We didn't have a lot of extras around the house when I was little, but we always had cable TV. So I was raised on a steady diet of Nickelodeon, MTV and HBO. Hands down as a kid this was my favorite thing on television. I know, a bumper! Designer in training!


circa 1983

THE SUN WAS TOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL TODAY!

I had to run around and snap all kinds of ridiculous photos!










tear sheets for a new project






look! the easel is up!
