Did I go over a month without posting a single thing here? Yes, yes I did. But I have really good excuses. I’ll tell you all about them:
I moved to a new place! The old place had charm, but it also had vermin-friends living in the ceiling/walls and an asshole landlord. C’est la vie. My new place has AMENITIES, not the least of which is a jacuzzi tub(!!!). Unpacking has been slow and painful since the new place has a fraction of the storage space the old place did, but the end is in sight. Regardless, the packing/moving/unpacking has been keeping me very occupied (not to mention those pesky jobs eating up my blogging time). More photos to come as the place comes together.
Besides the move I’ve managed to take some photos here and there of other activities that are not blog-updation:
Also, I’ve been working on an illustration, it’s not finished yet but here’s a little piece of the puzzle:
Eat your hearts out,
Life is a-moving at super-speeds as of late. Therefore, I’m gonna try to keep this brief since I should probably be doing something more “productive” than blogging. I give you in no particular order, photographic evidence of events of late incluting but not limited to a giant head sculpture by David Platter, the Shangri-Lounge, and a recent pedicure.
That’s all for now, squirrels. Thanks for stopping by, and remember to keep eating your heart out,
It’s been a minute, eh? New year, new excuses not to blog, I’m sure you all understand…
As you may recall, the man friend and I have fearlessly resolved to not eat out for the entire month of January and it’s been going mostly swimmingly. We did include one caveat for special events and we have had to break TWICE! Japanese food with a friend from outta town and steak with my delightfully pregnant friend (when a pregnant lady wants to go out for meat candy YOU DO NOT SAY NO). In atonement we decided to tack an extra week on, extending the joys of “Eat-In January” to February thus making up for our delicious sins.
I really should have been documenting our culinary adventures of the month, but I get so wrapped up in cooking that I forget how much I love to shoot food porn. Sads.
“Eat-In January” has led to an enormous amount of homebody-ism SOOOO… since I can’t really show you what I’ve been eating I can at least show you where I’ve been eating it. Almost evens out rrriiiiggghhhttttt??? It’s a conciliatory offering mm-kay:
Placated, aren’t you. I hope to Jeebus you ate your lilly hearts out,
It’s that time again, squirrels, the death rattles of 2010 are intensifying, inspiring humans everywhere to reminisce upon another year passed. I found 2010 to be pretty even keel, not too whirlwind crazy, not too deathly boring. I did the best job of pretending to be a grown-up to date. It was a year of making commitments to myself and actually keeping a small amount of them. And probably (hopefully?) more personal growth than I realize. Oh, shit you guys! It’s Memory lane; stroll with me, won’t you?
For starters I began this here blog. I cut off my man friend’s enormous dread locks, cooked some amazing foods, bleached my hair with pretty decent success, started caring about art again.
I made a pilgrimage to The House on the Rock, rubbed my Kansas City stench all over Madison, Wisconson and Davenport, Iowa.
I buzzed my own hair into a mohawk, went to some amazing shows, shacked up with my man friend at the Shangri-Lounge, began documenting my style when I felt it was exceptional.
Spent a weekend at the Lake of the Ozarks pushing my body to the limits and exploring ruins and caverns.
2011′s to-do list:
- Travel more
- Be less of a bloody homebody
- Exit my comfort zone at least once a week
- Try a new type of produce a least once a month
- Eat in the ENTIRE month of January
- Read more
- Buy less
- Purge the unneeded
- Redesign this here Fancy Blog
- Put the shoulder to the wheel and take 2011 by the balls
ANYHOW, I’ve got a NYE party to plan, sooooo… See you on the other side and don’t forget to eat your hearts out,
I’ve been a neglectful, sorry excuse for a bloggerina and I apologize. Because I love you all. Truly. Madly. Deeply.
That said, I think it’s high time we all went under the influence, flickr style. If you don’t have a flickr account I don’t blame you because it costs $$ to have an unlimited account, but it is absolutely free to putter around and look at really pretty photographs. Here are some of my all time favorites to feed your eye holes with. BTDub, is that your boss standing behind you? Cause this shit’s mildly NSFW:
fake inflatable doll – dana
perhydrol
Elekrisiti
From the Vaults: Mildred Von – Nadya Lev
Day 399 – Virtuosity – Christophe Verdier
frei – Jason Robinette
la vague – quadratiges
As always, eat your heart out,
Sometimes serious, mostly sassy, frequently loud, seldom perky and always fancy.
