Thoughts to Think About: Dream a little dream . . .
It's funny how dreams can seem so real, how thoughts or conversations throughout the day can manipulate into your subconsciousness. The fiction can mix with the nonfictional creating a completely different dream world.

sore, sore, sore . . . I'm not invincible!?
I am so out of shape that the least bit of strenuous exercise sends me over the edge of pain!
. . . . dumpster diving . . . lifting bolts of fabric. . . bike riding. . . and tennis don't make a good combination for one day, but overall I would say it was very productive one. I now have a living room full of cardboard that will soon become my Seussical masterpiece!

Round Two
So. . . who is this Dr. Seuss guy and what makes him the authority on what children like?
Well its that time again, round two in furniture design! It's time to break out the cardboard and become a Cartonniste inspired by the beloved book "One fish, Two fish."
Complex . . . yes
Confusing . . . yes
Whimsical . . . . definitely
Ideas? . . . none
Time to start researching!
EDIT:
The Man himself . . .

It's Crunch Time!
Busy, busy, busy weekend ahead, just when the weather looks nice enough to break out the shorts, I'll be stuck inside glued to the computer!

My 1950s Life
I swear sometimes I think I am living in a time warp. . . I live in this house that was built in the 1950s and sometimes it feels like it hasn't been renovated since then. I have no garbage disposal, no electric heat, I have two prong outlets in my bedroom, and unlevel wooden floors! It is cute and does have its charm (most of the time), but lately I just feel like I'm living in a bad version of Pleasantville! All I need is my transistor radio and saddle shoes and I'm set!

Disclaimer:
Okay so I'm sorry but i have to rant, here goes . . .
So I went to the outlets to look for some new kicks, and I witnessed first hand these men who came into the store, picked up at least 15 boxes of random shoes (without even looking to see what was inside the box)and set them aside so no one else could buy them, then went to search the store for more shoes.
Well, I was shocked and immediately flashed to the Tom's shoes commercial. People all over the world are walking around barefoot in need of shoes. But I'm sorry, hold on forget the world . . . think about when you were a kid with little money. What if a kid who saved all his money that same day came into the store looking to buy a pair of shoes, only to find out that they had been carelessly bought by these men to resell to on the black market. I just don't think it's right. I was like completely in shock. Now mind you this was just my first experience witnessing it, I'm sure this happens everyday in many cities all over the world. But I just wish those men would think about someone else besides dollar signs.
I know the economy is bad right now and any money making opportunity should be jumped upon, but seeing this from a young person's perspective who not too long ago was the little girl who saved up all her money just for a nice pair of shoes. These outlet stores are here to serve the middle class society that are unable to buy designer goods at designer prices. And I just think these men were taking advantage of the whole situation!
It's RIDICULOUS!!
Okay I'm done :)
