Random Photos & Bright Spots

03/18/2010 in personal

My room is a mess. These photos show the small clean islands in the sea of chaos.

Clean Spots

After work yesterday, I drove home, loaded several boxes of my magazine collection into the car and donated them to the Salvation Army bin. I kept a few of my favorites: my small collection of Fudge Magazines and my little orphan Lula.

Then I drove to the library and borrowed these:

My lips are addicted to Carmex. Dangerous stuff.

So many things caught my attention in each and every photo. I love the lantern in the first one, I want to see Wicked (!!), I use Carmex too (!!!), you must really love that keyboard cos you gots the iMac and you gots the Magic Mouse but you kept the keyboard and lastly, I didn’t know you were such a webbie! I live with one (my boyfriend) so all your books feel familiar to me.

Haha I love “webmistress.” I’m pretty sure my boyfriend has most of those books too. I loved this little tour, you have so many interesting things. And the colors are totally you! Even the colors of the books seem like they really reflect the style you wear and like!

you have such lovely, charming things – I don’t even know where to start! (although I’m laughing over the book you have called the zen of css design…is there zen to it? i’m going to have to check this out!!) Love the chinese graphics. You’ll have to tell me what you think about Push – I feel like it’s going to be too overwhelmingly sad although she’s such an inspiring person though!

Love your sweet corner…..my magazines are now taking over my home. I have brought them all out of hiding and my goal is to go through them all…sorting…clipping and eliminating the ones I do not want. I have years of them….not sure if I will ever see the end. xo
