Sort of late notice but the Silent Movie Theater on Fairfax is playing the 1949 version of Alice In Wonderland Once at 5PM and again at 7:30PM. If you've never been to this theater here's the perfect reason to go!

Scrapbook Info

I wish my house had a fireplace. It's raining outside and I would LOVE to bundle up by a fire. I made chocolate chip cookies so maybe I'll open up the stove and stand by it. That'll give me a nice bit of warm air. I had so much fun shopping with my mom and Roxy today.....or should I say my mom and Aunt Margaret. Roxy and I are so much alike it's not funny! I got Elyse the DS game she's been dying for - some fashion game. Yea! She's going to be so excited.

Laurence Fishburne filmed Jonathan Ross last night, ohhh if only I'd known! I think he's brilliant on CSI.
At least I can sit and watch it tonight but I wonder how long he's here for and what else he's promoting, if anything.... maybe a film premiere but I thought Armoured wouldn't be out here until next year?

Art update: random doodles

The above two are products of me doodling over wine. I emailed them to Chris as a surprise - but he thought I should share them on here! So here they are. :) I might make stickers of them for my Etsy next week if there is time!







I found some old sketches for the comic I'm putting together, and I decided to do some color tests with them. I probably wont be working on this much more before 2010 - it sounds like instead I might be illustrating a children's book my uncle is trying to publish! Could be fun - I'm very excited! More that later.

Hope you are doing well!

Giving Thanks

  • Nov. 26th, 2009 at 10:39 PM
My Thanksgiving was really good. It gave me the chance to be with my family and just relax, which is something I needed to do.

My aunt is in the hospital post-surgery, so we went to visit her and visit with my other aunt as well. It was good to see her, as I rarely get to see any family outside of my immediate family. Honestly, I find the hospital to be incredibly depressing. But it was still good to see more family.

We came home and had more food and watched that movie "Funny People" which was really good. I really have enjoyed all of Judd Apatow's movies, they aren't just your regular dick/fart joke comedy movies...they actually have some personality and depth which is rare nowadays.

Maybe I'll try and watch some of "The Ugly Truth" before my roommate and her dumb friends come home drunk. It's like now that I know she wants to move out, everything she does annoys me. I really don't wanna feel that way because I still want us to be friends, but it's hard not to take all of this personally. Whatever, I should just get over myself, huh?

I hope everyone's T-Day/Thrusday was awesome!

First of all, I just wanted to wish all my American members a very happy Thanksgiving. As a Canadian I celebrated the holiday around a month ago myself and had a lovely holiday. I hope you eat lots of turkey and stuffing (My personal weakness) and spend time with the ones you love. Best wishes also to those of you brave enough to participate in 'Black Friday'. I don't take part in it myself but I hope everyone stays happy and most importantly - safe!

SNL (Dress Rehearsal) Pictures!

  • Nov. 25th, 2009 at 9:24 PM










We had a fun time at SNL. We got there a bit earlier, hoping that we would get floor seats, but unfortunately we were seated in the balcony. I don't know how people managed to get floor seats! Maybe you have to be there super early, who knows. I was jealous! They were seated right in front of the stage...grrrr lucky bastards lol Anyways, our seats weren't that bad because the studio is small and they do skits in 3 sections - the main stage, the far right (where we were seated), and the far left. So we got some good skits that were done on 'our' side. The Black Eyed Peas were in one of them. They were only a few feet away from us! The short black guy with the mohawk (I don't know his name) was really funny. And I noticed Fergie is looking older (some say it's the effect of crystal meth, which she was addicted to a while back). Anyways, I was hoping to get a glimpse of Andy Samberg but he just appeared in 1 skit and it was all the way on the other side, so we barely saw him =( Instead, Jason Sudeikis appeared in almost EVERY skit. It was a bit frustrating...they should of given more parts to Andy. The good thing about the Dress Rehearsal show is that it's longer than the live show. It was 2 hours long. So we got an extra half hour of skits! And the Black Eyed Peas sang 3 songs...their new song "Meet Me Halfway" is not bad. The only one I dislike is "Boom Boom Pow". It's just annoying! lol Oh & of course, they didn't allow any pictures taken inside the studio, but we did take some while waiting in line downstairs at the lobby:

Hipsters 2

As promised, here is Part 2.

The Incroyables and Merveilleuses are my favorites, gosh I tell ya. What they wore was once a political statement, but then they gave up on making statements, and that was a statement. Or some such.

Mad tea party!

  • Nov. 25th, 2009 at 8:18 PM
Hello fellow Alice lovers!

So I am in the midst of planning a Mad Tea party and I am super excited!!!! I will be dressing up as Alice (of course and why not wear a costume on a day other than halloween?) my friend will be dressed as the queen and I will encourage other invitees to dress up as a cat, mouse, mad hatter etc...

I have an Alice tea set so I will be using that. It's actually not a set per se but it is mismatched Alice cups, mugs etc.. which is perfect. I will have 2 types of teas...maybe 3. I'm thinking Earl grey, English breakfast and not sure of the other.

I will make cupcakes and sugar cookies that say "eat me"

I will have cucumber sandwhiches.

I also have a mini alice tea set which will the center piece

I few bottles that say "drink me"


any other ideas/suggestions? this will only be in a few weeks so I have ample time to make it fun :D

Thanks everyone :D

Cute bookstore + raccoon doodle

  • Nov. 25th, 2009 at 4:44 PM

Today I went to the coolest bookstore: The Little Shop of Stories! I stopped in there on my train ride home because I heard they were giving away tickets for their Neil Gaiman event. (He is speaking at Agnes Scott College in Decatur, Georgia, and then signing books. More here)

Anyhow - They aren't giving out tickets till Monday - but I'm SO excited I stopped in their shop. I knew they were an independent bookstore, but I didn't realize their specialty was children's books! How cool is that?! They had a really good selection and the guys working were very nice. I ended up buying the comic book "Spiral-Bound" by Aaron Renier - which has amazing illustrations and an adorable cover concept... The book is set up to look like it's inside a top secret journal. Eee! How fun!

I can't wait to go back Monday to get my tickets and browse some more books - I really enjoy looking at illustrated children's books. It inspires me a lot :) I also sketched a ton of raccoons today over brunch, but my hand is hurting a little bit so I haven't finalized them yet. Here is my favorite:

Bandit - the sneaky Raccoon!

For those of you celebrating Thanksgiving tomorrow - I hope you have a lovely holiday!

Elyse was in Kindergarten in this picture. It was the pictures that Emily and I took of her class for Mother's Day. It's still up in my house. It's one of my favorite!

Ain't That Just Peachy Fucking Keen?

  • Nov. 24th, 2009 at 5:21 PM
Well. Heather (my roommate, if you live under a rock) announced to me last night that she is going to be moving out when our lease ends in January. She told me it's because she doesn't like our landlady and her ridiculous rule about not having Tibetan prayer flags outside our apartment and the fact that she doesn't provide recycling receptacles (you guys should see the recycle box in our apartment, it's insane!!). I don't like it either, but I hardly think that's reason enough to move out. She says that we're just different people and live differently, which is true, but I can't help thinking that it's something I did. Ugh, just when I think I have it all figured out, life throws me another curve-ball. This is what makes life exciting, right? So my options are either to find another roommate among the thousands of crazy people in town, or move into another apartment where someone needs a roommate and hope they're not crazy either. I would rather move just because living here makes it difficult since it's so far away from everything and I only have my Schwinn. I guess we'll just have to see what happens!!

I did however go on a shopping spree today and got all kinds of goodies to help me forget my troubles. yay for shop-therapy!
