A Conversation

On why/how we forgot to watch Mad Men on Sunday:

Banks: Yeah it's weird because we weren't even doing anything. Like, when it came on I was sitting down to a game of Starcraft and you were watching Devil Wears Prada.
Me: Um? Pretty sure I wasn't watching that?
Banks: No I think you were. You kind of always are. I'm just saying chances are high that you were watching Devil Wears Prada.
Me: Buhhhhwhat??
Banks: It's ok, it's not your fault, it's the television's fault.

All is forgiven because Boy In Question is currently at TJ's getting pizza toppings.

Remember back in, oh, January?

When I was applying for jobs? Finally got one. Just a few/several/too many months later.

No more folding! In fact, as the state of my bedroom will demonstrate, I plan to never fold an item of clothing again ever. It's not going to be a problem actually: dirty clothes go in the laundry basket, clean clothes reside on my maroon armchair, which I don't currently use for its intended purpose (i.e. reading) as it is GLOOOOORIOUS SUMMER and any/all reading is done out of doors and at Taste while I wait for A Certain Boy to finish his shift so we can get beers.

Speaking of reading, after hearing I got hired, I went out and bought this:


...which I am super excited to start reading, right after I finish this TOME of a graphic novel:

I really, really like it when I find myself reading something I would have been obsessed with when I was 14 or so. As in, my copy of Ella Enchanted gets reread yearly. Hoo boy, 14-year-old Lauren and Zot would have really hit it off: he looks and acts like Peter Pan (ahem, my first crush), and he gives his girlfriend a LIGHTNING BOLT NECKLACE which is also a HOMING DEVICE so he can find her when she's in trouble. I die.

Come see me at the bookstore! I'll be the one selling...art supplies.

I'm doing this, ok?

I'm just doing it.

Or, you know, I'm doing a knockoff for 1/25th the price. The bottle I bought cost $5.99. You do the math on the bad boy in the picture.

Pretty movie is pretty

I love it when movies I had on my Netflix queue to be mailed come up on instant view. Case in point: "Bright Star."

Mom, Maddie, Magazines, Morning

My mom came to Seattle to visit this weekend and, no offense to anyone, but she's pretty much the best mom ever? Proof: oranges just taste better when she peels them for you.


Also my sister is DA CUUUTEST and has glossy, glossy hair.

Still life with tikis.
