well, so much for going to bed early

But I'm still going to get up fairly early. I function better on less sleep anyway.

And can I just say how much I love $1 stores. I don't load up on crap, but I treasure hunt. I'm like a cheap-ass pirate. Hell, I found those bad-ass monkey pirates at the $1 store. And believe me, when a few of you receive them...you will know. Oh, you will know. I also found Futurama toys (I love Bender), stripey trouser socks which I will wear on my legs AND arms(pink, dark green, grey, white, and blue. the other hand looks better. heh.), little wooden boxes with clasps that are PERFECT for painting on, and some reeeeally perfect "Religious Coloring Books"! The pages in those coloring books are just...fuck, just too perfect for defiling. I'll take pictures when I'm done, but there are a few that stick out in my mind. The various forms of "Jesus Loves You" or "Jesus Loves Me" beg for "...all night long." And there is one of two angels holding an EMPTY scroll underneath the text, "Heaven Will Rejoice". You know what goes in that scroll, don't you? Oh yes. "...When You Die."
*snicker*

This past weekend was good. Dana and I went to the University's Art Fair. I bought two cards from this lady and she bought a really nice print she's been wanting. They're really pretty amazing up close, and as you can see, she uses no brushes, but one of those hairstylists coloring bottles. We left there and wanted something else to do, so as we passed the Expocentre, we stopped at the rodeo. I know. You can take the girl outta Kansas... :p I've actually never been to a rodeo. But I'm really glad we did, because not only did I enjoy being around so many horses again, but I got some pretty decent shots. I've been wanting to see how that camera handles action, and haven't had much opportunity. Later, and I think it was that night, Elaine, Miranda and I went to the coffeeshop and sat out front talking for hours. It sounds a little lame, I suppose, but it was actually quite nice. I like making people laugh. Then, wanting something else to do, we went to the 24hr Walmart at 1am and mocked the clothes, played with the toys, and I almost bought some boxers with GOLD bananas on them...just for the kitsch factor. Someday, I will make someone I love wear horrible things. And they will do it. And I will wear horrible things as well. And it will be a glorious day indeed. Together, we will confuse and bring hobo-chic into style. Then we will abandon it and laugh. THE LATEST BAG LADY FASHIONS FROM PARIS!

When I was babysitting our garage sale this weekend (yeehaw, a whole $40), the wind knocked down this porcelain bride doll my Mom was selling. Not such a nice day for a WHITE WEDDING, YAR HAR. *Billy Idol impression* It's head broke, hole punched in the temple, and several cracks. So now, now it's an art project. I'm going to go the oh-so-gothy blood and spiders route. Pics of that soon as well. I like how when I break something, it becomes an "art" project.

Also, found a half-eaten baby(and I mean baby...no feathers yet) bird on the porch the other day. Is it wrong that I took pictures? I lovingly buried him afterward. :/

june gloom?

What's up? Why are so many of my friends having serious cases of "the blahs" or are just plain down? Including me?

Are we taking stock? Looking around and going, What. The. Fuck. Did this happen last year? Is it a mid-point thing? I'd say it was a quarter of a century thing, but some of you aren't the same age.
There seems to be a general metamorphosis going on.

Why am I still up?

god loves hummers

Let me just say, I love motherevol.
Only motherevol and I know why. >;)

My KS tags were $164! Jesus bloody Christ! Now I have to remove the last indicator that I am not, in fact, a Kansan. *weeps* It is complete. At least the license picture is better.

I saw a church marquee (no camera) today that said, "God Answers Knee Mails". BWAHAHAHA!
STEP RIGHT UP LADIES...AND GENTS! GIVE THE SAVIOR A BJ AND YOUR QUESTION WILL BE ANSWERED!
