Hello Seattle

I am a mountaineer, manta ray, cold seahorse, albatross,
and an old light house.








Spent the day in Seattle. Enjoyed various 
stores, such as Marimekko. Love the
new Spring / Summer line.


Beauty in Who's Eye?

But from thine eyes my knowledge I derive,
And, constant stars, in them I read such art 

As truth and beauty shall together thrive,
If from thyself to store thou wouldst convert;




Or else of thee this I prognosticate:
    Thy end is truth's and beauty's doom and date.

~Shakespeare, Sonnet XIV

If It's a Summer Day

Without a cloud in sight,










Then tell me why it feels like it might rain on me.

Welcome to Diverse City!

Modern high end fashion.






Something that I'll never understand.


Wrinkles to Beat

Elders.




Respect them.
I visited my ninety year
old great great uncle and 
his wife yesterday.
The fragrance wasn't
at its best, but the people were.

The Life of a Socialite

Socialite. I'm really not one.






And speaking of socialite, I just love these looks from
The Grand Social.

A Crane for Your Thoughts?

A thousand?

Perusement

Why is that not a word?






Fade into the background. Pretend you aren't there.
Put the car in reverse and try not to care.

There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

I love The Smiths.




Light is such a beautiful toy.




Birthing of Babies

Summer is filled with many of my good friends' birthdays.

It's always fun to buy gifts, especially ones with meaning.

(500) Days of Mood Swings

I finally bought (500) Days of Summer.




Bawled like a baby, laughed like a child, and fell in love
like a hopeless romantic.

Perpetually Writing

Forever and always, a stickler at heart; a writer to the end.






These are some items I covet as a writer.

(That pen is seven hundred and fifty dollars.)

Affectionately Yours,

Oh love.




I love to see people in love. It gives me hope
that someone out there is going to show me that 
true, devoted love exists.

Bird Boy

I don't normally like to promote companies, bands, and singers of the sort
across my chest, but I make an exception for Andrew Bird.
