Things I Love Thursday: 2011.4.28

♥ Measuring Tapes: I thought I might shift all of my furniture around my room today, but a quick jaunt with my measuring tape told me that it won't be that easy! Aww, thanks for saving me from all that work & frustration.

♥ Pinterest: This website is like a little digital scrapbook. I can grab images from (almost) any website & enter my notes about them. I can see this being very useful for costume design research, but for now I use it to collect general inspiration. You should join me!

♥ Flowering Trees: No wonder People like spring. Now that I'm not living in a part of the state where Spring doesn't appear until mid May, I see the appeal. I'd probably like it even better if I lived even further south, but then it would be hot in August.

♥ Planning to Pack: I think when it comes down to it, I don't like moving so much as I like the idea of the process of moving. Which shoes will I bring? How will I make everything fit into a tiny bag? How much money can I avoid spending? These are the questions for the ages, my friends.

The Little Things:

♥ Cell Phone Cases ♥ Card Games ♥ Irish Alzheimer's ♥ People who care about my success! ♥ Pens ♥ Drawing ♥ Caribbean Accents ♥

What do you ♥ today? 

Things I Love Thursday: 2010.11.11

♥ Blogger Draft: It allows me to write everything for the week on Wednesday, & then just forget about it. Unless I get comments in my in-box. :)

♥ The Walking Dead: Have I talked enough about this on here yet? No? Good.

♥ Gold Eye Makeup: I saw this stuff in Sephora & knew I had to play with it. My inner Leo practically peed herself. I plan on wearing it out to Bklyn tomorrow when I go to see Druid Penelope. Because nothing says existential angst like precious metals smeared on your eyes.

♥ Sweaters: They keep me warm, they are durable, they are like wearing a hug. They have better texture than a sweatshirt, & make me look like I actually gave a crap when I got dressed. Which I do.

♥ Drawing/Doodling ♥ People who offer to send out my resume!!! ♥ The end of things I dislike ♥ Going to the theater ♥ Drinking with friends after the theater ♥ Alt performance ♥ Lattes ♥ my iPhone (it was sent to save me, I swear!) ♥ Running in to old friends who are doing things & give me hope for my life adventure. ♥

Things I Love Thursday: 2010.11.4

♥ Midtown Comics: The staff is charming, it's well-organized, & there are all kinds of inspiring art books to ogle. I will have a post up next week about my stellar experience there & what I acquired. However, I totally want to go back for a few Chris Ware books & the Vargas collection.


♥ Seeing My Professor's Show with a bunch of my friends I took his class with! And we're all going to go out for drinks like grown-ups afterward. I'm excited to see the Prof practice what he preaches, & excited that experimental theater like this is taken so seriously, so easily.


♥ Blogging! Since I started writing a few amusing articles a few weeks ago to amuse myself, it has been an almost constant compulsion. I've even written a few things I am proud of. I don't really know where any of it is going to go, but I'm glad my writing skills gained in school won't simply languish.

♥ Autumn: Have I said this already? Every week? Because the temperature is finally something rational, & I love it. Too many people at the audition on Tuesday were bitching about how cold it was. We have 7 million people in this city, we don't need one more. If you don't like it, move to Florida, or California. Free country & all.


♥ Cee-Lo Green's New Album Avaliable to listen to for free in its entirety on NPR until the day it's released!


♥ Reading the Night Away ♥ Boyfriend ♥ Shopping with Grandma ♥ Lapsang Souchong Tea ♥ Cookies my Mom Makes me ♥ Texting my Sister ♥ Planning Adventures to see the Thanksgiving Parade! ♥
