When emo meets gansta..........

So I have to admit, I am not a fan of the skinny jeans. Maybe it's because I don't have really skinny legs to go in really skinny jeans.

The check out boy at Giant, does however have the legs to fit the jeans, but no idea who he wants to be. I think you are doing Emo an injustice when you wear your skinny "I'm in a rock band" jeans around your upper thigh. Maybe it's just me, but you have to pick one or the other, rockstar or rapper, you just can't pull off both.

Just my style tip of the day!

Life in a box as we know it......


Most people decorate their homes in art of some form. Whether it be paintings, prints or photography. Those are things of the past, I decorate my home in cardboard boxes....

Roughly a year ago, I started packing for our move from Raleigh. At the time I wasn't sure where we were headed, but knew it would be somewhere in the northeast. This was my once in a lifetime attempt to not do things at the last minute. Sure it seemed like a great idea, go ahead and pack stuff you don't "have to" have first and then there will be less to do the week before we move. Well that's all great, except those very boxes are still packed up. Our plan to only rent this place for a "few" months has turned in to nearly a year.

My life saver......we close on our new home the end of April! At which point I am planning a box burning party.

If it has been in a box for a year, do you really still need it?

I don't have time.....

I found myself telling someone today "you should start a blog". This was in response to a conversation about rambling on the internet. I mentioned that I had a blog, home of my meaningless, yet self entertaining rambling. And then it occurred to me that I haven't blogged in a really long time. Since August 29th to be exact. So here's to the rebirth of this blog........

Time is perspective.....My response to things that I have failed to accomplish is "I don't have time" or "I haven't gotten around to it". Now maybe this is true, but often when I think back to why I haven't settled the task, I can't even remember what I have been doing to avoid it. Obviously, if I don't remember what I have been so "busy" with, have I really been busy at all? Or maybe I have just been lazy in not doing it.......

What have you been "busy" doing?
