moving and readjusting and missing has really taken its toll on me. attempting to get back in a groove, but in the meantime i am trying to get a handle on my google reader. holy crap, how is the internet so big. i need to stop looking at things and start doing things.
in the mean time, a few things that are inspiring me right now:
this bird house (must make one):
this ring (everything in the shop, really):
this necklace:
these felt pendants:
i am full of the wants.
“have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. do not now look for the answers. they cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. it is a question of experiencing everything. at present you need to live the question. perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.” rainer maria rilke

i am excited for vacation. i know this because i am doing things like: purchasing a big floppy straw hat and making plans to wear it around all day-every day for the entire during week; making insanely long lists of things i want to read and things i want to knit for the seven glorious days that i don't have to work; impulsively buying sandals and black and white striped canvas flats (with red piping) that i think will go over well in the Catskills.
also, people, the internet is so full of THINGS:
dandelion decals are so cute.
i can't stop watching this. why?
these golden moon earrings are a good way to celebrate space.
stupid and funny at the same time. like the internet.
i love this series of pictures. HOOVERS!
eternal problem: solved.
i saw the noid in here.
also:
be well, friends!
summer has been getting in the way of the internet. that's ok.
there's vacation coming up in august, plus weekends of bikes and games and new sundresses. things are good right now.
i made pizza last night (including the crust) which, while more time consuming than i liked, turned out to be delish. even with the exploding kombucha that got sprayed on it.
oh, i miss the sunlight. it was the longest day of the year yesterday, and still the sky was dark by 7pm, heavy with thunderstorms. sigh.
however, this is making me feel ok about the rain. grumpy park slope i already love you (but i will never buy that $7 iced coffee).
1. why have i never heard of this before? and when can i go?!
2. food inc: oh right, that's why i didn't eat meat for 10 years. eep. maybe it's time to go back on the wagon.
3. my new iphone is f-ing brilliant. :)
4. this poem. love.
