King Crimson - "Court of The Crimson King"
Recently Sean has really been getting into this band. And to be honest, I'm surprised neither of us had given them a good listen before. King Crimson is an amazing English band that started recording music in the late 1960's. I really love this song in particular. When I first heard it, I immediately recognized it from the movie Children of Men. It is such an epic song, all nine minutes of it.

LINKS:
♥ LADY GAGA COOKIES. Oh, lawdy. These are not to be missed. Gingerbread men shaped cookies with famous Gaga outfits!

♥ God, I love the Blythe dolls. I have secretly wanted one for a while, even to the point of wanting to be one of those freaks who sew customized outfits for their dolls, and take them out on photo shoots. Some genius over on the Craftster forums had the idea to make giant replicas of these iconic doll heads, and use them for a fashion show. Loves it!

♥ Decorating Nature, a neat blog featuring fauna graffiti. I really like the idea behind this project. Although the outdoors are obviously beautiful enough on their own, adding color to leaves and placing them back into nature makes for some really beautiful pictures.

♥ Kaleidoscope!

♥ Toy jellyfish for your water bottle. I kind of need one, I think.

♥ Larry Carlson's Weird Worlds Scrolls. Large, complex weird psychedelic collages. Slightly new age/occult and drug culture related. Right up my alley. May I suggest THE OWL LIGHT GROWS AT NIGHT and THE SHAGGY WOODS BEAST .

Come to the edge," he said.
They said, "We are afraid."
"Come to the edge," he said.
They came, he pushed them...
and they flew.

BONES AND SUCH

HELLO THERE FRIEND

Someone please buy me one of these amazingly realistic bear sleeping bags. Kthnx.


I would like one of these even more! 45$ from Bonadrag.


DIY lampshade of sorts. Click picture for instructions.

♥ Read about Ram Bahadur Bomjon. Nicknamed the Buddha Boy, he has spent months in intense meditation. Really interesting read.
♥ Time Warp Wives, an article about women who would prefer to live in different time periods, and go out of their way to dress, decorate their home, and act like wives from their chosen era.



♥ SURPRISE SURPRISE. Another offensive PETA advertising campaign! Read about the controversial Save the Whales billboards that proclaim "Lose the blubber: Go vegetarian". Good job, PETA. Targeting women and reinforcing gender stereotypes about having to be thin to be considered beautiful. Way to be misogynistic and give vegetarians and animal rights activists everywhere a bad reputation. ALSO, DID I MENTION THESE ARE UP IN JACKSONVILLE.

Watch this short psychedelic film while you can; I can almost guarantee YouTube will delete it.

VACAY

Really into the song "Galaxy of the Lost", the original by Lightspeed Champion (Devonte Hynes of Test Icicles fame) and the cover by Florence and the Machine (voice of a fucking angel).

YESTERDAY

(i kinda feel like a tool for posting this, but whatever.)
What I wore to play house wife, cleaning and cooking and whatnot all day. Even though its relatively simple, I am rather fond of the getup, which is why its getting posted.

shirt: thrifted
skirt: target, $10
shoes: thrifted
glasses: zennioptical.com, ~$20 with shipping.


I attempted to clean up the books I salvaged from the garage behind out house. They are college textbooks from the 1960's I think. The one in the middle with the mandala is a psychology book, and my favorite. However, it was in by far the worst shape. Unfortunately, I had to cut off and dispose of the front cover, which is almost identical to the back cover (which is shown) because it was just peeling and falling apart everywhere.


MADE DELICIOUS FOODS.
- Jasmine rice
- Sauteed squash, zucchini, mushrooms, and tempeh in soy sauce with ginger and garlic powder, and i think a touch of cumin
- Sprouts, which I really only included because you get so many in a package, and i never use them all. They were a surprisingly nice touch.
- AND THE BEST PART:

House of Tsang Bangkok Peanut Sauce.
SOOOO GOOOD. It kind of has a bite to it, which is awesome. Buy this, smother your life in it, and thank me.



Also, I have become rather addicted to both searching tumblrs and using StumbleUpon.
Here are some pretty pictures, ya'll:
