dive into the sleep that's waiting, back at home the stars are fading...

it just became august and i already feel like i'm settling into the fall. i'm starting to get into more of the mopey indie rock (such as the new mirah, notwist, and mates of state), starting to want to cook more wintery foods, and knitting even more than ever (i know, you can hardly believe it). i had this thought as i looked at my pictures of rupert that i rarely post one of pickle. so i got down on the floor this evening with her and managed to get one picture! currently she's cuddled up between me and stewart (stewart's watching betty boop cartoons!! yay!) and undoubtedly snoring loudly and comfortably.

i applied for a number of jobs recently and am literally spending a handful of minutes every day looking for new postings and more job opportunities! thinking about having an "adult" job means that i need adult clothes! my clothes have been all over the place, particularly because we haven't had much money to buy new gear what so ever. i got some summer shoes and they're pretty wrecked already. anyway, what i'm trying to say is that i feel like i don't have anything that expresses how adult, modern, and put together (but not a yuppie) i feel. i think i have enough to do a job interview or two, but to work full time in a cool adult job, that's a whole different story. any suggestions of cool arty professional clothes or styles i should look into?

today i had an urge to go thrifting and scored this tray. it's metal and immaculate! i love big colourful trays for food prep and display! i had to share this one. i'm a little scrambled today, but felt a need to post. (if you're a mirah fan, get the new one. it's classic and amazing mirah).

ohhhh... I too recently had the "Oh fuck I need to dress like a grownup sometimes" epiphany. Its an expensive journey, my friend, wrought with confusion and mistakes. Keep your reciepts, thats my best advice.
