I want to be pop

I have been watching The Neistat Brothers on HBO. Well they've only had three episodes but I really like it. If you haven't watched it watch it! and here's a web site: www.hbo.com/#/the-neistat-brothers
It has really been making me want to carry my camera around with me everywhere. It also makes me less ashamed of my camera since most of thier flims are shot on handhelds and iPhones. It does however make me extremely ashamed of my lack of camera skills. But I suppose the more I use it the better I will become.

Tattoo ideas

I've had a bit of inspiration and thus I shall post my ideas for possible tattoos that I love to get but most likely will not:

Rorschach's symbol from Watchmen. This is deffantly my number one choice.

or the New Zealand Football logo. I love New Zealand and I LOVE football. and it looks pretty damn cool. It would just be the feather though.

That's pretty much it. simple and black.

"For Paris is a moveable feast.." Ernest Hemingway

"The blue-backed notebooks, two pencils and the pencil sharpener (a pocket knife was too wasteful), The marble-topped tables, the smell of early morning, sweeping out and mopping, and luck were all you needed...
Then you would hear someone say, "Hi, Hem. What are you trying to do? Write in a cafe?"
Your luck had run out and you shut the notebook. This was the worst thing that could happen. IF you could keep your temper it would be better but I was not good at keeping mine then and said, "You rotten son of a bitch what are you doing in here off your filthy beat?"

That was an excerpt from one of my favorite books. A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway. He is interrupted by Ezra Pound, who is apparently a bit of an obnoxious ass. I love this book and it makes me want to be a better writer and go to Paris in the spring. It also really makes me miss my father. The book in thus wonderful and bitter sweet.

Time to become a Luddite

I am starting to really hate technology. there are just a few things left that I need to get before I turn into a complete Luddite; At least towards newer technology.
-Stereo System(with a tape player and hook up for a record player)
-Mp3 Player(with a hookup for in the car)
That's it. I had wanted a Wii for the WiiFit but no. I'm done. no more technology. I keep buying Cd-R's that don't work. Literally. A whole 30 pack and it burns nothing but data. OR it says its burned, all the music data is there but it won't play it. I buy them for music and they refuse to work. Maxwell, Memorex, TDX, Fuji, nothing. they all don't work. Sometimes they do work. Frankly that makes it bloody worse. *sigh* I hate to say it but all our music I think is going to have to go completely digital. I have been fighting against it but, there's nothing else for it. I will however NEVER EVER get a digital book. so not happening. for 10 years at least

that's better.

I couldn't help myself. that painting is just too cool!

Two Hung over cousins together at last...

My cousin mark is coming over today and we are going to go visit my grandfather who is in the hospital. He fell about a month and a half ago and has been having memory problems ever since. Last night the hubby and I stayed up until 3am drinking thus I am a bit hung over and I spoke to mark this moring and so is he. This is going to be very VERY interesting. We've never been drunk together and this the 1st time we'll be hung over together AND we haven't seen eachother since August (of 2009) So very exciting. I hope my grandfather remebers us. It's going to be a little wierd if he doesn't. Hopefull there's just some mild confussion at first but we'll see. Alright need coffee! good god do I!

getting crafty

I have been getting TONS of these tutorials for DIY craft projects all of which I want to do and then I realize I need a sewing machine and a ton of stuff. Then I'll end up with tons of awesome stuff to give as gifts and things to decorate my home for the holidays with. I am very excited and I am working on a list of things I have to pick up to start my crafting madness. I also still have to learn to knit and/or couchette
