…yeah, so it’s ma birfday tomorrow, and i have to work 930-7pm…BOOOooooo. Oh well, I suppose it’s just another day. I’m not one of those types of people that goes nuts over it anyways, I’m pretty low maintenance, but it is a good excuse I suppose, to have a little extra fun.

I can hardly believe I’m turning 29. I don’t even get it, where the time went…it poofed away in the wind. I am hoping to celebrate it a bit over the weekend by taking a little road trip, We might go to New York, not the Big Apple though (I wish), too far..just a silly little side town. New York State is only an hour away from us, so we might as well go do some exploring. Hurry Up Weekend…

(this picture hurts my eyes, but I love it)

Adoring: Lola Dupré

…I love the magic Lola Dupré creates with scissors and paper. See more of her eyeball madness candy here!!

I just recently acquired a very large amount of Scientific American magazines dating back to the early 60’s until early 2000’s. They are soo fun to look at, especially the crazy science microscope pics, space pics and old car ads etc. I’ve been scissor happy when it’s slow at work, and I’m hoping to make some super cool collages in the very near future. I will most certainly present some of my artisté shenanigans here, once I have some completed.

Brat & Suzie, Please!

 ...I am completely enamored by these quirkier than quirky, Brat & Suzie shirts from the UK.

...they also have a bunch of crop shirts too ( in other words-belly tops), I don't know about you, but I can't do the crop.  For one I don't have washboard abs, and for another they remind me of sweaty,greasy mulleted 80's Muscle dudes wearing Tiger Muscle Hammer Pants, and a Gold's Gym crop top just hanging off their beefcake bodies.

I'm sure some people can pull them off...I think.

How to be Alone

via

…I have always been independent, I get it from my Mom, and I must say I love and treasure my alone time. I don't need to be constantly socializing like other people, and I am starting to accept that more and more.

I adore peace and quiet, and I think that is one of the reasons why I love cats so much. I love their spirit of peacefulness & independence.

I thought I would share this sweet and smart little eastern canadian short film about “How to be Alone”.

These are a few of my favourite quotes on being alone:

**When we cannot bear to be alone, it means we do not properly value the only companion we will have from birth to death—ourselves. –Eda LeShan**

**People who need people are threatened by people who don’t. The idea of seeking contentment alone is heretical, for society steadfastly decrees that our completeness lies in others. –Lionel Fisher, Celebrating Time Alone: Stories of Splendid Solitude**

**A man can be himself alone so long as he is alone … if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free. –Arthur Schopenhauer, The World as Will and Idea**
