we are band aids

I watched Almost Famous again recently, and concluded that it had been entirely too long since I'd seen it last. I should make it part of some kind of regular rotation (not that I have a regular rotation of movies...ehm...The Holiday...don't judge me).

Anyway, the movie is friggin' great. (obviously) (which I'm sure you already know)
From the fantastic music(love me some old school rock) to that cast! Talk about stacked. Of course, maybe at the time we didn't realize how stacked it would prove to be. I mean...
Philip Seymour Hoffman. Anna Paquin. Jason Lee (Earl). Frances McDormand. ZOOEY.
Just to name a few.
Heck, even Rainn Wilson was in there.

Oh yeah, and Kate.
So iconic, so untouchably cool, so cute in all her crop top glory...I think we all just fall in love.

(gotta have that shirt)


Watch it. Or watch it again.

today i love:

This is so ridiculously right up my alley.
More here.

today i love:

Erin Wasson's house.
Raaaad.


Also, I cannot stop listening to this song:



Note: I seem to have started this new "Today I Love" feature. It may become the new format for this blog, or it may not. But when you think about it, it's not really like I've changed anything...cause pretty much everything I've ever posted about is what I love at the moment, so now I've just officially titled it. Aha.

today i love:

Layering.

In the home:

On the body:

A combination of the two:

Annnd...the best kind of layering possible:

The facial expressions.
The dog is wearing glasses.
Their hair matches. (almost)
No one else is around.
And I think she's wearing two different denims. And I love that.

Today I also love:
The song "Little Green Bag" (George Baker Selection).
And it's likely that I'll love it tomorrow.

the perfect white tee

Still looking for mine.
Meanwhile, I've accumulated about 4 not-quite-so-perfect white tees.

I have this problem.

I stay up late for no reason. I put off going to bed so that I can...what?
Diddle around on the internet for pretty pictures and new clothes?
Yes.
And here's a pretty picture to prove it:

Thing is, I'm actually really tired. My eyes hurt.
I just have problems actually going to bed, but once I'm there, I have no problem staying. I love sleeping in the morning.
I'm just a little nocturnal. Like a cat.


So there's the only picture of my Halloween costume.
(Obviously I'm doing something very catlike in this picture, and not a wimpy air-punch.)
It was a fun weekend.
My favorite costume that I saw was John Cusack from the movie Say Anything. It was perfect, down to every last detail. The guy actually had attached an extra set of arms to himself to hold up the stereo...SO hilarious. They looked real. Ahh...I wish you could've seen it.

Any favorite costumes from the weekend? What were you?


Good morning. See you in the night.

P.S. Snuggie commercials crack me up. Did you know that you can wear your Snuggie to:
-go to the movies?
-do the wave with a load of other Snuggie-clad patrons at a football game?
-do the 'cabbage patch' dance while watching TV?
-'raise the roof' around the campfire with your family?
