My birthday was Saturday and I'm STILL feeling a bit sluggish. In my old age it takes me so much longer to recover after a night on the town. My brain feels like liquid swishing around in my head. I hate not feeling productive, even if I don't necessarily have anything I need to do. I think I'm turning into my mother.
Here are a couple flix of birthday madness:
And non-birthday friends being hilarious and insane and awesome:
I decided to start a 365 project on my birthday, so that I can learn to use my new dslr camera and also indulge my inherent narcissism, haha. I'm gonna alternate weekly between using my phone and my camera. I think it'll be interesting to see the 26th year of my life, maybe only to me but who cares!
Today, I'm going on a thrift store/truck stop mini roadtrip with my friend Lis. She also runs a vintage boutique on ebay, which you guys should all check out. I like that technically I suppose we're each other's competition but we still go on "business trips" together. We even have a collaborative photoshoot day in the works because I have a nice camera and she has some nice lights, etc. Female camaraderie, I loves it. Though our aesthetic sensibilities come from a similar place, they are totally different. Hers is so specific and refined, which I admire. I'm kind of all over the place.
That's a pretty good metaphor for my life, actually. I feel so creatively inspired right now, and so capable, but there's a million different things I'm interested in- art, fashion, photography, design, writing. I want my finger in all of those pies, dammit! So sometimes I feel like my energy gets spread a little thin and I don't REALLY do any one thing at 100%.
I guess that's all.
LUVUBYE.
