It's official. I can't visit etsy without going into a mild Igottahavethis anxiety attack. Everything is just so... drool-worthy. My bookmark library is bursting at the seams with err... bookmarked etsy pages, crafting blogs and flickr profiles. I spend hours clicking on links, right-click-saving-image-as on pictures of oh so wonderful things and mentally kicking myself in the ass for not paying attention to my high school Home Ec teacher. Had I listened... sigh. Hindsight is indeed a pain in the ass.
Some women dream of Mr. Right on one knee, velvet box in hand, sparkling diamond engagement ring inside. I dream of Mr. It Took You Long Enough on one knee, velvet box in hand, Amigurumi Carnival Clown Cake engagement ring inside. See the big difference? Thing is, I would hands down, no doubt be happier than most women because my man gets me enough to splurge $24.50 plus shipping on a ring that I'd cherish more than any diamond ring in the world.
Still the same dream, only slightly skewed. And tons better.
Some women dream of meticulously interior decorated condos, with modern impressionist paintings hanging on some walls and central air conditioning. I dream of a studio loft haphazardly decorated with handcrafted plushies and modern flea market finds. With a room specifically for my collection of Shawnimals (dagnabit that's a legitimate word! stop telling me it isn't!) that will undoubtedly be legion and amazing.
Again, the same dream, only slightly odd. And loads better.
I'm never going to outgrow this intense love I have for all things small and just two steps east of weird. And that is just fine with me.
oh baby... what trouble is Percy getting up to? you said he was well-behaved! Since when did he get digging a hole from me?!? I resent that.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad he's keeping an eye on you though. Didn't he look after Squishy last week, too?
Was Percy really that bad with the nurses, or is Arnie just exaggerating? I thought you said Arnie was well behaved! Also, Percy is probably still mourning the loss of the love of his life, accidently killed in the pursuit of happiness.
Boys fight all the time, so as long as they're subtle about it ...!
I love you just the way you are. Though we will argue if you have all your toys etc randomly over the whole house. where will I put my books?
Also, a studio loft will be really too hot in the summer, and too cold in the winter. I don't like that idea.
<3 A dream is a dream is a dream, but to have a dream of your own is truly a grand gift! I wrote something earlier but may have forgotten to press enter...you're perfect just the way you are <3
