like, totally awesome

I just ordered one of these bad boys (not this exact one) from BraveMoonMan's etsy shop.  You can also find felt nintendo controller pouches and calculator wristwatches there.  Wicked decent.

in the name of love

After all those years in Texas, I deserve to encounter this when out walking in my neighborhood.  I did my time in Bush country.

change I can believe in

One big change in my household last year was that we moved to a little loft-style apartment by the beach.  While for the most part that move was a good idea totally fucking amazing, one tidbit that I've failed to discuss is that we downsized from each having our own giant walk-in closet to sharing one, average-sized wall closet.  For all of our clothes.  The result is not pretty.  So we've been in the market for a wardrobe of sorts, but I have had absolutely no desire to spend money on one.

Today we went to Ikea (an expedition!) and checked out their cheap wardrobes in person because I just don't trust buying furniture off the internet without inspecting it in person first.  And I think we agreed on a clothing-storage system that will alleviate our closet-space shortage!  May I introduce you to the Odda large and small wardrobes that will soon take up residence in a corner of our bedroom.  I'm wondering whether purchasing particle-board furniture will make me feel like I'm a 20-something kid again.  Maybe a lava lamp would look good on top of the wardrobe??

poetry in motion

I haven't quite decided whether to attempt NaPoBloMo this month (the theme of which is "Change"), but I may.  I don't have a change-themed blog for today (though I have many changes in mind to be discussed on a future date or dates), so instead I give you a piece of bar poetry that I observed last night.  It is from a tab (not my own) and it struck me as incredibly... well... SOMETHING last night and I wanted to save it for posterity.
