my “must have” for the new year…
I think these cards from Set Editions pretty much speak for themselves…

apparently I have a disease…
Oy, does this piece on the “Design Disease” hit home.
In a good, yet freaky sort of way…
(and yes, I want a kitchen towel like that)

ok, this cracks me up…
If I lived in a true mid-century modern house, and I had enough money to furnish it the way I wanted, then I would have to post this sign from Uncommon Goods. Or, more likely, not THIS sign, because this one is kinda ugly… so probably one that I’ve made that SAYS this, but is much cooler looking.
Seriously, how can people actually live in those modern houses without having all the stuff? How can kids live there? Are they really that disciplined, so as not to have ANY stray detritus laying around at ANY time? Or do their houses really look like hell most of the time too, and they just clean it up extra nice-like for the photo shoot?
bwahahahahahah! I almost fell out of my chair here thinking about my house having anything but a “before” photo shoot…

oh no, it’s happened…
I went to wash my favorite hoody yesterday and pulled like seven Kleenexes (in various states of use) out of the pockets.
yep, apparently I’ve turned into my mother.

such an ugly, ugly word…
So I went to the dermatologist yesterday because I had this weird lump sprout up in the middle of a mole. I thought it looked vaguely wart-like but my husband is just enough of a hypochondriac that he insisted that I get it looked at. So, with visions of my impending demise via melanoma, I made an appointment. Want to know what it was?
… wait, wait, wait …
… dramatic pause …
A “barnacle of old age.” A BARNACLE OF OLD AGE! Sheesh! I’m 35 and apparently now old enough to have grown BARNACLES! Oh yeah, it had some real, scientific-sounding name, but once she said BARNACLE, that’s all I could focus on.
So I have a barnacle. But he (yes, it’s a he) is not long for the world as he’s been frozen and supposedly will soon fall off.
Farewell my Barnacle Bill.
