...

These tears I've cried
I've cried 1000 oceans
And if it seems
I'm floating in the darkness
Well, I can't believe that I would keep
Keep you from flying
And I would cry 1000 more
If that's what it takes
To sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home

I'm aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
Over silbury hill
Through the solar field
You know that I will follow you

And if I find you
Will you still remember
Playing at trains
Or does this litte blue ball
Just fade away
Over silbury hill
Through the solar field
You know that I will follow you
I'm aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you

These tears I've cried
I've cried 1000 oceans
And if it seems
I'm floating in the darkness
Well I can't believe that I would keep
Keep you from flying
So I will cry 1000 more
If that's what it takes
To sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home
Sail
Sail you home

My baby Ella is sick.
;(
She became anorexic and now has fatty liver disease.
;(
Tuesday, at home.
Friday, at hospital.


I've gotta get her eating and out of that hospital. Stat.
She would never sleep in flannel + sit on a leather couch.


Paul McCartney told me I shouldn't live in the past.



So I went to the Vintage Bazaar. Um, it was kind of a disaster. I was there at 12:00pm on the dot and it was already packed. It was packed so much, you couldn't even see what the booths had to offer.
Awful.
I got pushed. I pushed. And then I had an anxiety attack.
Crazy crowds freak me out, big time. So I went and sat at the bar (!?) and waited for my friends that I was meeting. After 30 minutes recouping from the experience, I agreed I would 'wing man' as they pushed their way through the vulture's nest . When push came to shove, I was happy to leave, and, sad to see the line to enter went out the door.

The idea- wonderful.
The reality- not cool.
Let's hope they do it again, but reformat...everything...





I was able to score a broach and a fabulous lions head gold belt.
$8 each.

  6. Camilla & Marc Zahra Dress

I'll tell you a secret, let's make this perfectly clear, there's no secrets this year

So, Tiger Woods, {you may have heard of him} just concluded a "press conference" regarding his 'indiscretions.' Um, yeah, .....that was bull shit. In the communication's world, a celebrity speaking in front of media that his PR people have cautiously pre-selected and then not allowing questions is not called a press conference.
I think Tiger is a coward.
A real man, with real remorse, would not do a faux "press conference."
That got me thinking....
With all of these celebrities/politicians publicly saying that they are sorry for their numerous indiscretions, do those two little words....'I'M SORRY'.... hold weight anymore??
I don't think they do.
In any case, when caught with your pants down {or skirt up}, just go to Etsy.
They have many ways to 'show someone you really care.'
oh look...that's creative... thanks for the saw, its going to come in handy tonight when you're asleep.


you're not fooling anybody. everyone loves penguins, asshole.

yeah, and your actions are shit.
hahaha. oh little bear. I'm 'sorry' i gave you a black eye, but i'm still leaving.

hangs head in shame....cliche.


then shut the fuck up.

wait, why is there a photographer up in the window taking my photo?
is this going to be in US Weekly?

nope. no you can't.

nothing says 'sorry' like a hooker in a mini skirt.

i always knew the women that said 'its okay' were aliens.

really, this is your angle of apology?


stop crying hussy.

If you build it, they will be happy...



okay, here's the deal....

my parents are coming to visit this weekend and as soon as they walk through my front door, my dad is gonna give me shit because i haven't made use of my vintage Singer that i begged for a couple years back. turns out i'm not the sartorial that i had envisioned. it's hard. and i probably need to take some lessons.

but, to prep for the inevitable comments that will be made about my lack of productivity, i have prepared a response.

'mom...dad....i realize that my lackadaisical approach to sewing has been an insult, not only towards your kindness in providing me with a beautiful machine, but to my machine itself. turns out guys, that Built by Wendy has a new collection coming out on February 22nd that has renewed my interest. i am going to dig out my Built By You Patterns (i own all of them) and take another stab at it!"


Seriously though, Wendy's new collection is great.
I'm defiantely going to be dusting off the old machine.
i've always been a fan of bowling.
the girl is not so bad either.
