just because you wanted sid vicious eyebrows

maura @ 8:49 pm

I’ve got homework to do. I should be doing my homework. What I mean to say is, I have to go do my homework in a few minutes. Or even now.

But first I will throw out a little link love, because it’s been so long:

1. You may remember that I (mostly) hate shopping. Don’t like spending my time + money on it, plus I’m a humorless anti-conspicuous consumption hippie. But Kelly from The Office has a hilarious blog called Things I’ve Bought that I Love and I cannot stop reading it. It’s more or less written in character, plus there are cute puppy pictures and cool pens, and when we were in Indiana we saw those crystal light packets IRL and they are completely tiny, which freaked me out.

2. (Repeat above shopping disclaimer, and add something about buying things made from recycled materials.) But if I were rich + frivolous I would want everything in my whole house to be made by Kerf. Maybe it could be a small house, like one of those ultratiny houses there keep being articles about in the paper*. The tiny house that we are going to get when we retire to New Zealand. I bet they could even make us a murphy bed, which would be so, so cool.

* Link may be expired if you’re not a subscriber, so use this one if so.

3. Continuing with the yin and yang of shopping vs. antishopping: a used kids clothing store is opening soon near us! Huzzah! I have a ton of old Gus stuff I was going to have to schlepp up to a shop in Williamsburg. But this is closer, and I am lazy, so that is good.

Hmm, I seem to have run out of steam here. And I do still have the aforementioned homework to do, plus lunch to make and bag to pack for camp tomorrow. Bye!

Pam has a blog too! But it’s on MySpace, which burns my eyeballs. Bummer.
