III – Because the internet is made of

CATS!

II – My office and general environs.

A reminder of New Orleans.

My office.  A strange and barely productive place, but it’s home.

Decoration.

Plant/paint.

I.

Some small friends and a favorite hat.

Dresses!

The gold table and a hint of Paris.

From the shrine.

And a diorama I made today, called “Witchy.”

Saturday!

The photography bug caught me big-time today, starting with the beautiful trees visible from our living room window:

At a yard sale today, I found a super-sweet electric Smith Corona, with white-out capabilities.  It’s my new favorite toy.

I felt that pictures must be taken of the work done today at Hoard Antiques , which included framing some never-before-used pharmacy labels from the 1940′s

and making a rack for the earrings out of a picture frame and some wire.

Also, regarding antiques……..I am still not sure where Mark got this, but it is damn worth sharing with the world.  This record – a remix album of The Wizard of Oz – contains some of the craziest sounds ever heard or created by humans.  Luckily, the cover is almost just as insane.

And the back cover, in which Glinda is most likely on shrooms and the outfits are really quite slutty for the Emerald City:

Wow.

Last but not least, is the pretty boxes I picked up at the thrift store for ninety cents each,

and a pretty Lily in the window.

Kitty party.

Mercury in Retrograde began today, so why not start a photo-blog?  It sure as hell won’t be a Daily, because nobody’s got that kind of time, and really, who the hell would care about my picture postings every damn day?  Over time, I wouldn’t.  So let’s take it as it comes.  Today was a trip to the Field Museum, where it turns out the exhibit I had missed most of all, was the Gift Shop.  So many cool Egyptian things.  On top of various scarabs and stones and such things, I got some very pretty things, the first being these two small but absolutely beautiful papyrus…es?  Papyri?  Meh.

Along with those, I got a beautiful scarab jewelry box, which I figure will work well as a keeper of trinkets on the Isis shrine.

Upon returning home and working on packing for the move, I found my Beatles lunch box…

and discovered that my super-sweet pink tool kit fits perfectly inside.

Life is just cool like that sometimes.
