weekend poopshoot

woman with lace, originally uploaded by Nina Marie Gilbert.

this is one of my newer vintage finds...the tag read "woman with lace." i love the little look on her face. i love how her face reminds me exactly of the face of the woman who owns the antique store where i bought it. i love her crazy bangs and the way she's looking off into the distance. what's going on in her mind?

this weekend was kind of a poopshoot. not much going on, not too much family time. i just finished reading a fabulous book...ariel gore's "The Traveling Death and Resurrection Show : A Novel". super good except now i don't have a book to read because i'm on hold for francesca lia block's new one at the library. you think after the book sale i'd have something to read, but i don't buy grown-up books, just kiddies.

yesterday john was at a bachelor party (hi chris and erina!) and i was left to my own devices, which included throwing joey in the pack (gray was with puppa) and going all over the place. uneventful thrifting and grocery shopping and talking to lots of strangers. boo and jason came over and took caramel...made me delicious food and emptied my dishwasher and had coctails with me and watched bad alien tv. and looked at my boobs. even though they probably didn't want to. there's a lot of lovin going on between those two boys...and with john gone, i was feelin' a bit lonely watching the lovefest. i wanted in on the action. but not their action.

today i spent most of my productive day at my little bro's graduation. the most BORING graduation i've ever been to in my life. and i'm pretty sure he doesn't read this, but tingy...i'm so proud of you. to graduate with your engineering degree summa cum laude...and to be going on to get your masters...damn boy. you've come a long way from the big pants and leaving bowls in the back seat of my honda. love you!

hope all my peeps had gooder weekends than i! and swapladies, if you haven't already gotten your treats...you should probably be getting them tomorrow! glad you liked yours, mindy! i'm still thinking about my song, and will post a thingie about your cd tomorrow when i can get my head out of my water-logged bum.

meow!
