mitsuru lovely tiny

i won't be so ambitious as to say that i'm back for any time greater than today.  but i'd like to think i could possibly be back for a while.

in any case, how lovely is this?  (shan, i know you sent me this link ages ago, but i only just made it through my inbox today - thanks!)

so still and quiet and nice...  

these are pretty amazing too.  sweet, peaceful dinosaurs enjoying the beach like any good tyrannosaurus should.

publique fun with paper!

oh, to have time to prepare a special dinner and to set a table and to hand cut disposable paper placemats into exact replicas of said table...

in the meantime... publique living will do the work for you.  the placemats, anyway.   

fun site!

brilliant new waste of time!

i guess you don't want to talk to me anymore

there was a storm today and it blew and blew and blew

a little somethin'-somethin'

so, i was feeling kinda lousy today after a lame encounter with a loved one. feeling like i was just banging my head into the same brick wall for, like, the 14millionth time.  somethin' must have kinda come loose in my noggin because the skies opened and a lovely angel choir sang somethin' lovely!  "i know", i thought, "i'll just kill 'em with kindness.  i'll just gift a little somethin'-somethin'." nothing says "let's just get over ourselves!" like a gift from the heart.  nothing big, just a token.  just a little somethin'...

lucky for me, i heard about the something store on npr on the way into work. turns out, you give these mad geniuses $10 and they send you (or your loved one) a little somethin'.  you don't know what it is until you open it.  some of the somethings are super fancy pants, like iPod shuffles and whatnot.  and some are not. but all are promised to be interesting.  

so, anyhow, i ordered two somethings - one to be delivered to the brick wall and one to be delivered to my head.  i'll keep you posted...

diorama-o-rama madness

maybe you've heard the word on the street or maybe you haven't yet caught wind, but rumor has it there is some diorama fantasticness coming to a house party near you.  if i were you, i'd check the perts by clicking here.

here's a little somethin-somethin to look over while you're letting all of that palmolive.

instructables

my new very favorite waste of time: instuctables.com 

instruction on  e v e r y t h i n g .  from how to make friends to how to pop a pimple.  you can learn how to make a $5 underwater macro lens or how to handcraft an achingly self-referential virtual commodity fetish object (for fun and profit!). 

all of the instructions are accompanied by visual references, in most cases photos, but sometimes videos or illustrations.  for example, below are the instructions for making organic planting pots using old newspapers:

additionally, the "email it" feature means you can subtly pass along a bit of guidance to a friend or loved one without the awkwardness of face-to-face instruction.  an example.

it is all here.  loads and loads of fun!  serious.
