Neat video by Jason Sievers

I love pom poms and a good animated video. I have always been tempted to eat a fluffy pom pom - but I haven't done it (yet). This little girl looks a bit like my pictures from when I was that age too (not obsessed).

R.I.P Soupy Sales!

Farewell pieman.

"You're such a smartass, I bet you can sit on a carton of ice-cream and tell what flavor it is"

It's finally feeling like Fall has begun.

My roommate has been cooking mung beans with curry and ginger and it smells exactly like my mom's kitchen which always makes me feel reminiscent of the season's changing and that internal shift that happens when you can really feel the holidays approaching. Summer is officially over - it lasts a little longer here in LA, but now it's definitely over. Summer 2009 was the driest (interpret that as you will) and most unromantic summer of my life. Thank god for Mike and Chris (not the clothing company) for being single this summer so we could hang like 'back in the day.' Looking forward to lounging around in my pajamas over the holidays.

Ashley Macomber is an awesome artist

Ne Dis Rien avec Anna Karina & Jean Claude Brialy

Does this ever actually happen to anyone? I wish my life was like this.

C1RCA v. Christopher Bettig

I'm shamelessly posting about my new shoes that are dropping soon. These are the first batch of shoes I did with C1RCA, a mens and womens shoe, that are both made from selvage denim... pretty hyped about this and had to share!

Mom is using that webcam you gave her

For those of you who have given your mother a webcam as a gift, this is what she's using it for! She's using it to DANCE FOR HER LIFE and upload it onto YouTube.
