It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL THIS WEEKEND--especially after the nasty week we've had-- It's spring. I'm over the snow/slush. I just want to be outside, but I have SO much work to do in Rhino this weekend. Isn't that always the case?

I want to just walk around and procrastinate. Oh well, I'm just going to leave my windows open while I Rhino it up.

I miss my letterpress class. I think that I need another fun class like that to balance out the craziness that is my life right now.

sicko.

ERGGH.

Interwebz. Why must I be sick. AGAIN??? My body must know that this week I start school and is making me want to hate my life and want to sleep all the time because I can't. HATERATION.

The Radiant Child

I want to see this movie.

Basquiat is one of my favorite artists. After being introduced to him in high school by my teacher while I was writing a research paper on graffiti vs art, I have been fascinated by his life, what he did--and what he could have done if he had lived longer.

I will have to do some research, Interwebz to find out more info about this movie!

So Happy Together

I saw this video and immediately was like "I want to go here."

It's that epicsawce.

PLUS it was all done in one take. {fo'sheezay}

Why Study Home Economics?

Oh wow....

Get Off the Roads!

So, Libby got her permit today, Interwebz. GAH! So scary! It makes me feel so old...

Libby & me on my first day of Kindergarten. Now she towers over me. Yeah. I know.

In honor of her triumph over the evil DMV today, I thought that I would post some awesome retro-car graphics that I recently discovered on A Cup of Jo that I really love!

I want to drive all of these cars. Not that I would give up Flo, but, I mean, come on...these look pretty awesome to cruise around in!

SNOWPOCOLYPSE!

So, today Brooklyn had a taste of the Snowpocolypse that has been hitting Maryland and D.C.! Pratt actually canceled classes.....YESTERDAY AT 2:00!

Crazy-pants, I know... As of 45 minutes ago, when my roommate measured the snow on our fire escape, we have gotten 8 inches of snow! GAH! INSANITY!

I've been huddled inside all day eating popcorn and playing Taboo with my roommates. I couldn't bring myself to brave the cold and trek to studio, hopefully I won't regret it later! I almost wish that they would cancel classes tomorrow as well, that would make for a nice short 2 day week for me, Interwebz! Huzzah!

Of course, I've probably jinxed it now. Oh, well, better get back to sketching!
