pow-pow-power lines!

1. i caught matt's cough & cold over the weekend and have been downing nyquil every night since. that nasty shit works wonders and my congestion is almost all gone!
2. i think i look really weird/even younger when i have no eyeliner on.
3. tomorrow i'm getting fiona apple tix. she'll be performing at Sixth & I here in DC, which is one of my fave venues b/c it's a pretty little synagogue, and it's intimate. (i hate big arenas and shows.)
4. i was going through a closet that just has a bunch of shoes and bags dumped in it (b/c the shelving broke off the wall over a year ago and we still haven't fixed it) and i refound some sweet heels that i totally forgot i had!
5. i hate "dog smell". gross. i hate dog licking even more. all i think about is how much they lick their own butts or eat mud or lick the cats' butts. NO THANK YOU.

this was in my parents house for as long as i can remember, it's made of capiz shells, a popular shell you can find in the philippines, and tons of stuff are made from them. i want to say my grandfather brought this over when he emigrated from the philippines.

when my parents got rid of stuff, they gave it to one of my uncles. a few months ago my uncle decided to get rid of some stuff and asked if i now wanted the lamp, and i took it in an instant.

i really love unique lamps, especially ones that give me such sweet nostalgia.

p.s. for once, this is not a color of any walls of my house. i wanted to add a strong mood of color to the photo. thanks, photoshop! also, you should really view large :)

day 19 of the feb. photo challenge: my workspace

...as guarded by a bobby digital. that's his spot when i'm working at the computer. steve buscemi (my other cat) tends to want to lie right on my arm, or directly in front of the keyboard when i'm working. my cats are total attention whores.
