i love seagulls

most people think they're annoying. but i love them. when i was a kid i wanted to be one so badly. to fly, of course, to leisurely float on the waves all day, and to poop on people i didn't like.

speaking of SF

neato

i want to get this for gg

but know she doesn't really need it. but that doesn't make it any less wanted. or easier to resist.

simply perfect

the watch watch

saw these somewhere yesterday and again today on design crush... love them. probably b/c they look like candy. and definitely because they are so very affordable. i'd get one if i could think of someone who still wears a watch.... that someone is not me. they make me too nervous. a constant ticking reminder? no thanks.

marshmallows are the new cupcake

on the rare occasion i got my childhood paws on some Lucky Charms, i was the kid who forced down all the cereal bits as fast as i could to be left with a glorious pastel pool of floating marshmallows. and those hot chocolate pouches... i'd open 2 (maybe 3), pour 1 (maybe 2) through a sifter til only the mallows remained, and greedily add all the marshamallows to my one mug of hot choco. i still remember the day my grandmother introduced me to marshmallow fluff and peanut butter sandwiches.... cue the Hallelujah Chorus. and the day i watched my first homemade gourmet marshamallow melt into a mug of homemade mexican hot choco...the thing was shaped like a cube for the love of god! cue the heavenly rays of light.

i've always been and still am obsessed with marhsmallows. pull them apart with my fingers til they feel like taffy, toast them over a burner on the stove and pretend it's a crackling fire... you name it, i'll eat it. the obsession has hit a real fevor pitch the last few months as i've rediscovered the underrated rice krispy treat (Starbucks actually has a right good one) and s'mores... i'm confident one or both will soon become the new cupcake. you can only imagine my excitement when i came across this site selling cereal marshmallows all by their lonesome!! brilliant, m'dear watson, brilliant.

god, i love this song.

god, i love this album. god, i love this band. We Were Promised Jetpacks. seeing them in a couple weeks in SF. i highly recommend you check them out. if you've got the passion for the music, you'll get the passion for the Jetpacks. believe.
there's trouble in embedding land, so go here for recorded version and here for live. or just go ahead and get the album. it's one of the few i've come across recently i can go front to back, over and over and over.
so there's been some serious radio silence in these parts... not sure if that will soon change. or not. got a lot on the brain... got a lot on the plate. we'll see. and you'll be the first to know.
