some people choose the city, some others choose the good old family home

missing my adventures in vanity at my country home:










somehow the light is never as good here:




(using one of these: today in my hair. WEIRD

thanks to my excellent friends for another excellent weekend. i be missin you for 4 days til we meet again. xxooxxoo

you gotta open your eyes in the morning

god bless footage of artists performing on the old grey whistle test (a television music show that ran from 1971 to 1987 on the bbc)


downloaded this song for the first time about two years ago and re-feeling it as of right this moment now:




recently also been re-feeling tom petty. dude is actually pretty genius and runs with some heavy circles, not to mention how killer the original intro in this video is.



and here's the buzzcocks on whistle test in 1978 (have you re-listened to this band lately? maybe you never stopped? i think they nailed it):



i think three is nice and rounded. i watched new york noise tonight and its probably the closest thing i have to a show like whistle test these days. i will take it but i think i should have been the host of whistle test right around '76. sign me uppppppp.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It's graduation time. Not in any officially
recognized sense, maybe, but still: You have completed your study of a
certain subject in the school of life. At a later date, maybe you will
resume studying this subject on a higher level, but for now you've
absorbed all you can. I suggest you give yourself a kind of final exam. (Be
sure to grade it yourself.) You might also want to carry out a fun ritual to
acknowledge the completion of this chapter of your story. It will free up
your mind and heart to begin the next chapter.


thats my horoscope this week. i really think it is a sign i should quit school. considering i skipped every single class today i think maybe i basically already quit. halp.

you can stay as long as you like

now accepting applications for my duet partner. study up and come prepared.

i had to know, so i asked

help i can't stop looking at shoes and i want to buy them and i can't even afford dinner!











i'm dyingggggg, please someone PLEASE buy these for me. i would settle for just the first ones. JUST THE FIRST ONES! maybe i should start a little paypal thing? maybe people could each donate one dollar until i could buy those first shoes? i have great feet! imagine my feet in them! it would be a gift for the whole world (and especially the foot fetishists that seem to lurk about on public transport in the summer)!!!

think about it, that's all i'm asking.

you must forgive me if i'm up and gone

still on my ronstadt kick, and this here video is bloggable for so many reasons. mainly: when will this be my life? (i'm waiting and waiting, isn't it time for my lap to have something fall into it? girl's getting antsy!) and also: why is she wearing that shawl? and if you had to guess, what year would you date that video with. if you asked me i would say plain old 1970. and if you want to really get into it, that was forty years ago. and if you REALLY want to get into it i could name some other cool shit that happened that year. but i won't. because i know you don't. no one does. and that leads back to my original query. and it gives me the original answer: NEVER.

i'm retreating to my bed now to dream of hunks with sideburns wearing giant collared shirts in large floral patterns that will never ever be mine anywhere other than my dreams. SOB.

sunday night fitness vol. 5

wow. such an epic fail.




i really DO NOT recommend richard simmons' 'bringing down the house' workout video.

que sera sera

hola and welcome to the future!


i have a few resolutions:
1) less digital / more analog
2) think before you talk
3) please sell clothes and make money



i am going to try my very best.

much love to all of you from the past into the future.
