Since this blog is basically a virtual version of such little notebook, and it's much easier and less time-consuming to attach .jpgs in Blogger than it is to meticulously cut and paste photos onto actual paper, I've decided to share this week's list with whoever is so inclined to read it...
Thin-tipped Crayola 12 Washables Original. I've a long standing affinity for good writing utensils, and the purple and sky blue in this package are truly heaven in marker-form.
Alex James' autobiography, Bit of a Blur. It's obviously fluff but So. Much. Fun. to read. Because really, who doesn't want to have been a young, sexy, debaucherous rockstar in 1996 in the Groucho in London?
A slice of day-old birthday cake lovingly packed into a tupperware box and placed on my desk.
The new Soundtrack of Our Lives album, Communion. A double-disc filled to the brim with derivative-yet-oh-so-enjoyable rock n' roll tunes as played by a gaggle of really cool Swedish dudes? Yes, please.
Being young, alive, happy, alone, and fabulous, with awesome friends and a lovely apartment and the whole proverbial world at my feet. The Imperial Tea Company's Royal Jasmine Blossom candles. The pitch-perfect scent contained in a surprisingly chic little bronze tin (which there are no photos of on the internet apparently) is really, really gorgeous.
Doing-It-Myself. Hammering my first nail into my first wall. Lifting and tying a mattress to the roof of a minivan. Fixing a faulty drain. It's wonderfully empowering to not rely on other people for anything. I may have no photo for this specific point, but it's the thing I've discovered I love most of all.
