I'm enjoying some of Snoop Dogg's music lately: Signs (with Justin Timberlake) and Drop it like its Hot. The songs are so catchy and pretty cheesy but good for a breezy summer day.
I listened to Joanna Newsom the other day and was disappointed-I wanted to hear her music after reading the article about her in Venus a while ago. As a fan of the harp, I figured I'd like her, but she sounds like she's trying to be an old woman (I confirmed this suspicion by reading some reviews).

I really enjoy reading Drawn (where I found the link in the previous post). The site is updated all the time which is great.
The newest Bust magazine just came out and I've already perused the music pages and downloaded songs from both Amerie and Scout Niblett who reminds me of Cat Power and Feist-two of my favorites.
Ed and I are moving in much much less than a week and although it should show in the amount of packing we should have done, it doesn't. I'd much rather sit and download music like a lazy thing in front of the computer. I know I will curse myself on Thursday for this.

I've never run across the work of Souther Salazar but I love it. I think of J. Otto Seibold and really crazy children's book illustrations from books my Mom had saved from the 50's and 60's.

I love this pillow (just the right amount of pretty and creepy all in one) found on fabulous Morning Craft. If I happen to run across a spare 80 bucks American I'll buy it.

Ed and I took Farley to have his hair cut today on Main Street and now he looks like Bambi crossed with a terrier, his legs are so long and gangly and sort of fly out to the side when he's running. Anyway, on the way back home after stopping in a few of my favorite clothing stores, we came across a fairly new electric bike store called Voltage Cycles and although not in the market for an electric bike found that they have tons of awesome toys and t-shirts including a bunch of both from Gama-Go. I bought a Gama-Go t-shirt a while back without knowing who they were just because I liked the little ninja cat on it and then was in search for some of their other designs. I was so happy today when I saw them all at this store. I bought a shirt with a big line art dragon breathing fire on it. They also have a bunch of Threadless shirts as well which are hard to find and are all designed by different people competing for best shirt design.

I won't be eating another KFC veggie burger. Word has gotten out through PETA that they torture their chickens. I read both Fast Food Nation and The Food Revolution: How Your Diet can Help Save Your Life and Heal the World a couple of years ago and somehow (naively) thought that because of the exposure that many fast food companies would have changed their practices. Some have, but looks like KFC hasn't and is instead just evil.
