In two weeks, I will be in here. NYC. For a day's taste of Fashion Week 2010.

A little gift from work.
It might be time that I stop complaining about my job. Sometimes they surprise me with their generosity. And for work that is not only enjoyable but also meaningful, it's really not so bad.

Now the real dilemma: what to wear to a fashion show?!

Cherry Blossom Girl's wedding clutch makes me want to go bird hunting.

edit: not actually CBG's clutch, but rather a wedding guests'. my apologies for the mislabel.

If I could do anything in the world right now, I think it would look something like this:
quit my job for a two and a half month long road trip around the country
and then a year in a foreign country, painting.

And then? Who knows.

The only problems are that it doesn't sound very exciting to do alone, nor do I have a sponsor to send me overseas for a painting holiday.
The travel buddy might be tricky, but the painting thing....
maybe that could happen....

I hate it when people take hold of my fluffy, well-intentioned ideals, turn them upside down, and shake out all the nonsense. Like here.



Those silly tourists with a lack of respect for God's beautiful creation and an absence of common sense should be banned from the National Parks. Let's use technology for good and not pain-in-the-ass trouble, okay folks?

Navy, crimson & cream.

i like these better than red, white and blue don't you?
let's not make this a matter of patriotism though.
rather, just a way to describe what already exists.
a different perspective.

see more photos here.


Um, gonna click OKAY! on this one.

What a great site. I've been floundering a bit on the whole career front, and this settles it. I think I'll begin with Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. Thanks to Ranger Sue, I already know the basics:
1. carry water in your stomach, not on your back.
2. chipmunks have stripes on their faces. golden mantle ground squirrels don't.
3. and NEVER feed the animals. they are not your friends.
