hello lovely loves!


mcwphotos

i just wanted to drop in and say hello, happy friday!

today when i went outside there was snow on the ground
and snow falling, too!
it was heavy but very soft.
all the trees look really beautiful
as you can imagine, covered entirely in snow.
i love it.

justin and i are leaving our apartment sunday morning at 5 a.m.
for a 7:15 a.m. flight to wisconsin.

i have utterly exhausted myself this past week shopping
and have honestly been sleeping like a wreck.
but i suppose in the scheme of things none of that matter anyway
since i'll be seeing my family and friends in two days!

hope your holiday is incredible!

sending love ...

i'll be seeing you soon ...

happy thought for the day.



indeed.

I forgot where i found this, so if you by chance
own this beautiful piece of work
please let me know
and i will link you - thanks!

my tribute to grafitti and cute animals.



OK, so sometimes justin and i get bored
and since i have an unhealthy obsession with penguins
i decided to decorate the 5th avenue subway platform
with some pinguino goodness.

ooo!
just had a thought:

since we will be leaving for wisconsin on sunday
i am going to have a sick amount of video and pictures to post.
that's going to be fun.

hope you, lovely blogger,
have a lovely day.

i'm off to complete my christmas shopping (sigh).

i have incredible news!

there is a petition circulating

to institute a monument of bob dylan

in washington square park.

how fitting!

they say robert allen zimmerman

was born in duluth, minnesota,

but bob dylan was born in new york city.

please stop by if you have a chance and

sign the petition.



"all the great performers had something in their eyes.

it was that 'i know something that you don't know.'

and i wanted to be that kind of performer."

- bob dylan

girl you got it goin' on.


the sartorialist

you got it goin' on.

three reasons why i love animals.

1. they have a sense of humor.



2. they are genius (though born with instinct, i still think they're incredible.)



3. they can strut like nobody's business.

i got the - i'm broke as hell holiday blues ... mmmhmmm.

the truth is,
i'm trying really hard not to freak out about christmas
but the fact is, i'm broke right now
and i'm stressin' big time
because we're leaving on sunday
and i've hardly made a dent in my christmas list.

today i went to michael's
to get everything i need to make christmas cards
and i swore i could have lost my mind in there.
there are so many people who, apparently, have no manners.
i think i heard, "excuse me" and "thank you" once -
and it drove me crazy!
... maybe it's the holidays that makes everybody nuts?
we're all hyped up on 60% off sales & starbucks.
i just don't like it.

i have a million errands to run
and only two feet, a city bus and a subway to get there.

by some insane chance
(somehow)
i'm hoping
that everything will work itself out
and i won't spend the next 6 days having a mental breakdown.




... sorry, i had to vent.

i am strangely captivated by this photo.
