my other song of the day

monday monday

i have a ton of pictures to upload from my camera, but i'm pooped and i'm being lazy. i went to an awesome show last night: native guilt, legs dead and well, big kids and 1994. so i stayed up late and had to work all day. i'm exhausted. more to come later.

underground restaurant

this is such a cool idea, i want to steal it with both hands...

rainy days

so the rain has only persisted the past couple of days, and its affecting my work. don't get me wrong, i love it, but it just makes me want to sit in my craft room with a quilt and a cup of tea. i'm suppose to go on a picnic tomorrow, so i hope it doesn't rain a ton. overcast i'm okay with. this weather has also made me realize that i could definitely handle living in the northeast or northwest somewhere, and that i'm dreading the looming heat and humidity here. this is a picture of the boy i'll be picnicking with tomorrow, this is from our last picnic at the salt plains...

tucked away in a basement



i started my curatorial work today, which means i spent all day in a basement with artifacts and my deathly hallows audiobook. i love my job. i'm in the process of cataloging a ton of edison phonograph records that have multiple (and usually incorrect) accession numbers on them. that probably sounds mind-numbingly boring, but i disagree. on top of all that, i hung out at a park during my lunch hour and ate a vegetable sandwich. not too shabby. after i got off work i hung out with my mom for a little bit, but i ended up feeling bad because i crashed from my caffeine intake and i think i might have been a bit of a crab apple. i'm fighting the urge to take a nap at this very moment because i know it will only lead to another night of me watching futurama until three in the morning and then being exhausted at work. this seems to be a pattern in my life. alright, enough of my rambling for now.

birthday treats

it's my dad's birthday this weekend, so naturally this is what he will be receiving from me. i've never tried making a checkered cake before and i'm a little nervous. but my excitement definitely outweighs the nervousness.

La La Vasquez - Hello?

i decided to start a blog today. i'm not exactly sure what compelled me to do so, but i'm going with it.

it's been raining here a lot the past few days, so i've been sitting in my house obsessing over british lo-fi. i wanted to post something by one of my new finds, but i didn't have much luck. but here's a video of la la vasquez playing at the cowley club in brighton. they're pretty awesome...
