1. Love love love this band. Their songs are sickingly sweet in the best possible way. Check out “Later Operator”–my favorite.
2. Can we just talk about how much i dig this picture? I reminds me of a rubix cube or one of those games where you slide the tiles to match them up. Sweet.
3. Thought i didn’t like twee, now i know i totally do.

So I haven’t been making much of anything lately…and it’s making me sad. Heck, I haven’t even unpacked my sewing machines since I’ve gotten home from school =( [over a week ago] I finally did start to make something today, the first piece of clothing for my shop (that’s sewn)
What have I been doing besides crafting? I’ve been playing a lot of guitar. Also listening to & discovering a bunch of new music.
Speaking of good music, everyone needs to listen to the Weakerthans. I’ve had one of their albums Left and Leaving since early high school, I cleaned my room and stumbled across it and just now got around to listening to it. Too bad I hadn’t found it earlier, they’re amazing. Some of the best lyrics i’ve heard…why are these guys not famous?
This song is so beautiful and makes me so happy. Maybe i’ll learn how to play it.
