waking up the right way

current tune: "Cheap and Cheerful" by: The Kills

Today started off slow and nice. I spent my first full "good" night at the apartment. My back is slowly getting used to the "bed" I'm using. For all those who are curious, my bed is a foam mat and a sleepingbag at the moment. I woke up to sunshine, took a shower, got dressed, and packed up my computer to go to Recess for good free wifi and fresh coffee. Plus it would hurt to be seen amongst the locals as a cute indie girl.

My laptop is happily streaming wifi with a better connection than the one I receive in my room and the coffee is both free trade and delish! I am having a great morning!!

Recess Coffee was one of those places I knew about for a long time (ever since I started going in to Boom Babies) but never went over to check it out. With the recommendation from a talented professor, Sanders, I will now be frequenting this place when I can.

a bit of the inside (where I'm currently occupying)


I'm going to finish the adorable mug of coffee that is patiently sitting on my right and indulge in my free wifi for a bit longer. Salvation Army and work call my name and adventures await!

groovy cardboard love

current tune: "The Get Go" by: The New Young Pony Club

Today had a good morning. I woke up tired as usual, made some fresh coffee, and walked to painting with a travel mug of coffee in one hand, a pad of drawing paper in the other, a beanie, and a pair of 1980's sunglasses. I got in my groove and went with it! I found my groove.......for this morning.


Pictures when I can snag someone's camera to do so!

I recently just stumbled on, literally, this adorable site called carboard love. It's quite enjoyable and innocent. This one caught my attention:


I love the fact that the purpose of this self-project was to help the creator become a person with a more positive outlook on life. I've often thought of writing random sayings on cardboard pieces, but not like this. The concept and delivery are great!
