Remember Me?

It's been a while but I'm back and I promise to update more often. It's kind of hard right now being desperately broke and pretty much confined to my apartment by the Houston heat but I'll do it. Usually I have a lot to say but for some reason everything that pops in my head starts with "I want" or "I need" and those posts are really lame. Tomorrow I'm going to say things like "I love" and "I did" but for now I'm just saying hey.

Ghouls! Ghouls! Ghouls!


With Halloween approaching and the weather turning chilly I thought it would be a good time to have some fun making horror themed accessories. Along with my good friend and AZAC designer Batty, we've created a new line called "Ghouls! Ghouls! Ghouls!" with just debuted on Etsy. We will also be vending our bloody accouterments at this year's Crytpicon Horror Convention in Houston, TX.

Impulse Shopping?

Is it funny that pregnancy tests are considered "impulse buys" and featured prominently at the check out next to Twizzlers and gum at my local dollar store?

For The Love Of Bento!

I've stayed up past my bed time again, trying to cheer myself up by watching adorable Japanese cooking videos on YouTube. I've been obsessed with bento forever but never brave enough to attempt one on my own. For now I'm content just looking at pictures like these fabulous examples:



Another discovery I made this evening is a hilarious Japanese Youtube show called "Cooking With Dog" where a poodle named Francis makes everything from udon to tempura. To me the yummiest looking recipe was this but I am an octopus freak:

Spinsterhood & Cats

Last night I went to see The Psychedelic Furs with my friend Shu. It was a festival of hot girls that made me feel so insecure. They all seemed to have perfect skin, shiny hair, hot bodies, cool outfits and wonderful husbands and boyfriends...the life! As a single chubby girl who gets and occasional zit, growing out a bad hair cut, I felt green with envy to the point where I almost wish I hadn't gone.

After the show we walked to a bar where I ran into an old friend who gave me the scoop on an acquaintance's surprise divorce. They seemed to be a perfect couple, so happy and in love. They had great careers and a cute house in a trendy neighborhood, everything you could possibly want. Turns out the answer for the breakup is quite simple: he met someone hotter.

After last night I have really learned my lesson: looks are everything! Now that I'm out of my 20's it's pretty much futile to hope to find love unless I have expensive plastic surgery and develop an eating disorder. Since those are not options at this point I have my choice of living alone as a cat lady or join a convent. At least now that I know the infinite truth about men I can have the freedom to eat whatever I want, not shave my legs and save money on make-up. You see, there are pro's to this situation. I won't have to agonize about the fidelity of my mate of suffer the heartbreak of a painful divorce either. A fair trade I guess.



These aren't exactly new theories but I was always optimistic about finding true love until last night. Now that I have resolved to stay a single woman for the rest of my life I can fill my time with hobbies and interests I never had time for. Going to play with my cats now...
