Can't Let Go

In going through all the crap at my place I am trying like hell to part with things. One that I won't ever toss is my portable cassette tape holder from high school that used to belong to big brother Dave. The stickers were his and I added the lil' pink turtle, naturally. It still holds all of my old Idaho Potato mixtapes plus a couple random ones. Oh how I miss making mixes, on cassette and cd, for friends and crushes...

Here's the best of Steve Keene artwork that I kidnapped off his steve.keene Instagram account.

Amy in Greece!

Amy's jobbie sent her to Greece for ten whole days and she had the best time ever, despite two minor health-related inconveniences (being a woman can be pure hell!) and a cat attack (what the hell!?!). I loved that she kept me in the loop via texting photos and what not. I felt like I lived vicariously through her.

Bella in Louisiana!

Bella texted me the other day from the airport in Charlotte where she was getting a connecting flight into Louisiana. She was going to Shreveport, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans for work. I told her to take a photo on her travels and then text it to me with the message she would write on the back, were it a postcard.

Last Seen

Friday night I caught the first two eps of this Apple TV series from Australia, starring the incredible Patrick Brammall, who I knew previously in Colin from Accounts. I hate that streaming networks are going back to releasing episodes weekly rather than a full drop so that we can binge. I resent it and it makes me not want to watch at all. Imagine my rage at 2AM when I was waiting for episode three to begin and realised I had to wait four whole days. I was livid! Anyway, ranting aside, the series hooked me right away and I am so looking forward to the next four episodes.
