24 bottles of shampoo in my grandmothers shower

so- i went to take a shower today at my grandmother' house, I haven't spent the night or taken a shower here in forever- but I went to get in - and I knock over 6 bottles of shampoo - and then I realize I have no space to move- because there are so many shampoo bottles in the actual bathtub part.

I was laughing to myself- because there were 5-6 bottles of the same type of shampoo- all at different content levels- some almost empty- some full- and then the rest were all random and different. There were probably 10 different types of bodywash's in the shower- and it was hard to make a decision on what I would use.

In the end I used the burt's bees pomegranate shampoo/ and the aveeno body wash.

I decided I would depict a digital drawing of what the shower looks like with all the bottles lined up on the side of the tub- and all the bottles hanging under the showerhead- etc. It looks like something my 7 year old cousin would make- but its pretty accurate as to the amount of crap in the shower/bath tub.


god bless my grandmother and her indecisive/compulsive shampoo problem. I wont even tell you how many bottles are in the bathroom cabinets- im pretty sure there are bottles of nuetragena rain in there that date from 1991/92- ....

luna moth obsession

I am trying to conduct research and figure out how I can find some of these moths- I have seen them on very few occasions - I had a close encounter with one a few weeks ago when I was going sailing with my boss on a small lake in northern ohio. It was sleeping in the main sail, and as that sail was being opened- it fluttered out and down past my hand, and onto the lake- and sat there for a few minutes- before it flew off.

I tried really hard to get it- I thought it was dead at first- and that it had fallen out of the sail and into the water- but realized it was actually just sitting there the whole time, riding the ripples.

Here is a really neat video from youtube about luna moths, along with some cool photos. There's some green porno in here too- some luna moths mating- isabella should do a video on these guys ;)

a-holes

OMG

Are people just fucking sooo stupid or what?

I just want to say- that 2 weeks ago- our local touch-down butter Jesus made of styrafoam got struck by lighting and burnt down- and I kind of feel like this should happen to a few modeling agents and PR people out there- that their talent would be better off if their agents were struck by lighting- because they too- are made of fucking styrafoam- who the fuck makes a statue of styrafoam in the land of a million thunder/lighting storms? Who?!!! I'll tell you who- Jackasses.

Now- good agencies are made of concrete- they are strong, stable, and will last. They are great to work with and deal with. Their agents are easy-going, responsive, work hard for their talent, and are not catty, stuck up, and full of bull-shit. I would like to take the time to give a shout out to the best talent agency I have ever dealt with- Timothy Priano is amazing- and his agency is brilliant, full of talent, and easy to work with- and not in a softy way- but in a humanistic, real way- lets just cut through the crap, get it done, and make it happen we are all artists way-

my love for tsumori chisato-

Dear Tsumori,

Your designs have amazed us for over 2 decades- and today- I'd like to showcase on my blog- your Spring & Fall RTW lines- absolutely impeccable and not to mention- I CALLED IT!- middle eastern inspired garbs this summer/fall, - and Chisato, you did it best in my eyes.
I'd like to take a trip down memory lane, and showcase an early design of yours- i believe this is FW1995/ but i could be wrong- i love this little coloured/block vest- its one of my favourite- love to you and your art/ your work/ your designs/ your life.
