My daemon

Today is my day!

So on my way to work I opted for the radio. Louisville's WFPK. It's a radio station with actual disk jockies who select the music they play. Miracle of miracles!! So on the way to work they played Beck, I can't remember which song anymore, and when I got to work I wanted to hear the rest of the song, so I quickly turned on the radio. It was over but Elvis Costello's Useless Beauty was on. Then they played Old 97s, Feist, Van Morrison ...the good stuff. And just a few minutes ago they playe Half Acre by Hem.

It's musical mayhem!!! I might start to hyperventilate...... in a good way. WooHoo!

Wow, long time eh?

Alright, since I was here last, I've been to Neocon.....this has nothing to do with republicans and everything to do with interior design....don't ask me, I'm not in charge. I was a camp counselor for 100 teenagers who gave me strep throat and mononucleosis, thus I've done a LOT of sleeping lately. Anyway, to start getting caught up let me show you some of the things I loved at neocon.

This pattern on the wall made my heart go pitter pat. Want it. Those chairs were pretty great as well. At this point I can't remember who made any of this stuff, my apologies.














This table hurts my heart. I think I could make one if I really wanted to.



















I want this for a bathroom. Beautiful.



















These curtains are laser cut and and I cannot emphasize how amazing they are. Sorry the pictures aren't better. I think these are made by Carnegie.



















These 3 chairs! (I like apples too.)



































Oh the fabric!



















Hope you enjoy.

Holy Hail Mary!

Recoleta, originally uploaded by hundreds of sparrows.

This was taken in Argentina at the Recoleta (where Evita is buried). The entire place was really intense and I think this really captures that.

Also, by the way, I took zero pictures while I was camping. That's a big goose egg. Someday I will have pictures of the big south fork. It's just too pretty not to.

Yesss!!!

Yesss!!!

My only regret in Argentina is that I didn't try one of these. Ok, that's a lie, my biggest regret in Argentina is missing the night we went to a milonga (sp) which is a tango club. My silly back gave out. But a close second regret is definitely not eating one of these little mofos.

Headed Camping

This weekend me and a ton of other people are heading up to the Big South Fork. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. Me, C., Stephanie, and Maggie are going kayaking as well. I'm so excited! Soon there will be photos.

Other news:

Check out Maggie's blog. She has the best halloween post ever.

The Scoop makes me really happy, especially because they reminded me about OplusD.

My new favorite blog.

Argentina's McDonalds

McD's

So, If I got puffy sleeves and cute McAss jeans, I'd work at McDonald's! The burgers are actually burgers too...they are really good. We wanted to compare something that is standard here in the states. I think it's sort of fun to check out fast food (if only once) in other countries because it's always just a little different.
