Q: Are You A Feminist?

A:YES!

Attic Bedroom

Widow's daydreaming with the daily paper and cat
Originally uploaded by Ladik

Over the past few months I've been having eerily vivid, crushing dreams. Recently, I dreamed about my childhood best friend who is soon to be married. The distance between us grew much to far to mend after I left for college, and bridges haven't been mended since. I dreamed that we were at our current age in an attic bedroom (much like her childhood bedroom). We lay in bed next to one another with scrapbooks of old collected memories- like we did as teenagers with Vogue and W magazines. The light poured through gauze covered windows in my dream, it was the yellow gold light of summertime. We laughed and laughed, but then she looked at me with a stone cold face and told me that she was still not inviting me to her wedding. I woke up feeling awful.
Dreams that are so close to reality, that dip their toes in the pool of your conscious, have the power to stick with you far longer then expected.

I got this dress yesterday. I always wanted a sweater dress, and this one fit the bill.

Helmet- Final Chioce

I did some more nosing around the inter-webs to see if I could get a better deal on a helmet. I found one that I liked well enough, and plan on making warm ear pads for winter. My total cost including shipping from EvoGear cost me 38 bucks. Not a bad deal indeed.

Almost

Almost from Church and Steak on Vimeo.

I loved the video (minus the tragic ending.)

No Flashlight

I was away again, and being back in my city feels like an overdue homecoming. These two could make it better though...

Skinny Love

I whole heartily love this song. I want to go see Bon Iver, please.

This Close

I want to be this close all the time.

Tuesday Night Dinner

Last night the girls came over for a Valentines day themed dinner. We had a yummy red pepper avocado salad and crusty Italian bread- that Amelia brought over. We had creamy artichoke pasta (which I may or may not be allergic to), and adorable homemade heart shaped frozen yogurt sandwiches. As always the food and company was great!
I can't wait until the weather gets nice so these get-togethers can be enjoyed on our rooftop deck!

I have been heavy with the music lately. I'm really digging Elephant Parade, and wouldn't object to a downloaded copy of their album for a particular upcoming romantic (greeting card) holiday.

I'm a Maker

I consider myself an aritst, but theres so much more. I believe artist is under the greater umbrella of maker, which is a more accurate classification. I make things, and sometimes its art. Its a craft, meal (mess), idea, and more. Its restrictive to be only an artist.

This is my most recent collage.

Perfect Weather for Biking

The recent thaw has made bike riding that much more enjoyable. Not freezing my paws off is an added bonus!

I am going gaga over this fabric, I can't get enough. (via label-free)

Dwell

I am a dweller. When left to myself for too long I reside in the space between my ears, and perhaps stray from my personal beliefs, which can be very ugly-and very unlike me. Sometimes, it takes some help to pull myself from the gravitational pull these thought patterns create. Its easy to fall back into the grooves the thoughts create, and I am guilty of falling back into them too easily.
Do you think this flaw is common for introverted people? Hopefully since I understand myself a little more now this will be a less frequent occurrence.

I found this collage. Isn't it stunning?

Cat Power

Zombies Ahead

Road work computers have been hacked all over the country, and I was lucky enough to experience this prank while in Sarasota, Florida. It was marvelous!

First Look

My first gimps of you was when a part of you was reaching out, and the other was still holding on.

This may be immature, and irrational but exes erk me (my own and those of others). Well, guess I'm immature and irrational, what can I say? I could....stick my tongue out and make a gagging sound.

Name Lust- Ashley

Sometimes when I listen to particularly beautiful song I pretend I'm the girl being sung to. Ashley, in this case.

Last week around this time I was preparing for a trip. Some photos were taken, and will be shared later on. Lets skip to this week's photo.

Since you've seen me last I had my hair cut. Like it?
