I realize that it’s officially Tuesday morning. I was really hoping to get this post up before midnight, but oh well, here it is. It’s my Much Love Monday submission:
Thanks for the postcard, Anna!

Inspired by Jeremy Stockwell’s picture-in-a-picture Polaroid shots, I took these photos in front of the Volkswagen dealership on Mission Street in Daly City. As much as I’m a fan of the VW GTI, I’m not in the market for one. But, VW had the best balloons, with happy carnival colors and I just couldn’t resist using them as props for this set of photos.
As I was doing my thing, a salesman approached me and asked what I was doing. I said, “I’m just taking pictures for fun.” As I handed him my blogger card, I said, “You can see these pictures on my blog tomorrow.” Then he said, “What’s a blog?” Hey you guys, we’re on the bleeding edge. :)
The instant photos were taken with my beloved bastard camera, my Holgaroid, and the enclosing photos were taken with my D40 Nikon, with a fixed 35mm lens. I’m pleased with how they turned out.
I hope you guys are enjoying your weekend. I will see you on Monday for Flickr Fave. :)

Yesterday, I took a cue from my Mad March Hare and made a big jump: I gave my boss 30 day’s notice that April 1st would be my last day of toil in his coal mine. He said, “I’m surprised that you stayed at this stupid job for so long anyway.” It’s nice to know I’ll be missed.
How do I feel about all this? I feel scared for the obvious reason that I won’t have a steady stream of income for a short while, but at the same time, I feel like a kid who just opened a fresh box of Crayola Crayons, with 48 different brilliant colors, and I get to draw on a fresh sheet of paper whatever I want. These are exciting times, indeed! :)
So these are my quitting-my-job clothes. I really like this outfit and it’s easily one of my favorites. It’s simple, colorful, and really comfy — a big plus. The brass bunny necklace was a Valentine’s gift from my hubby. He got it for me after hearing me gush about it when it was featured on Kind Over Matter. The necklace is by Pink Andie Designs on Etsy. I like to call it my Mad March Hare.
If you’re wondering about the headless Katrina, it’s because this photo is for Bloganista, a Flickr fashion/style pool, kind of like Wardrobe Remix, except you can’t show your face — it levels the playing field for us regular folks. At least I don’t have to worry so much about my photo face looking all scrunched when I’m focused on taking my own picture. And that, my friends, is a good thing. :)
I can’t wait to catch up on my blog-reading. See you on the Internet!

Mr. Rabbit, Sir is happy to participate in a Lovely Package Giveaway at Oh Hello, Friend. Besides Mr. Rabbit, Sir, there are twelve other Etsy shops showing their wares. Go check it out before it ends on Monday, March 8 — this giveaway is HUGE. I would enter myself if I could! :)
I want to take this time to thank Etsy curators, Juli Ani and A. E. Wilder, for including Mr. Rabbit, Sir in their Treasuries. I also want to thank Eadaoin for mentioning the shop in her beautiful blog, City of Blackbirds. THANK YOU!!
