Things I Love Thursday
Hello my darlings! I know it has been quiet around here, I have been setting up my new life as well as dealing with a wicked case of jetlag! Things will be back to normal as soon as possible — thank you for your patience & for bearing with me! Now, without further ado, here are some of the things I’m loving this Thursday…
Having Antipodeans to talk to when I’m awake at 4am on the other side of the world dreaming about really blue water & flowers made from snow
Hank Williams snoring in my lap while I work
dressing Hank up as Pocahontas
harnessing the power of the Moon & Venus in Virgo & obsessively cleaning/organising/setting up my new office & wardrobe room
the fact that One Lucky Duck now does home delivery
drinking green tea that The Dish made me (tea & coffee always tastes better when it is made for you by someone who loves you, fact)
finding a voucher for Forever 21 amongst all my things & going on a much-needed shopping trip
madly trolling Ebay for winter must-haves
telepathic dream sharing
S Factor by Tigi Body Booster Plumping Spray (it smells like strawberry bubble gum & gives rad volume)
Cuban food with Stef aka POS (see also, he was nominated for an mtvU performing award & you should vote for him because he really does deserve it)
using Hank as an impromptu hot water bottle
delicious breakfast & laughter with Philip
my new hooded faux fur coat
cozy couchness
furniture shopping
sweet unnecessary compliments (even better: totally weird ones that people don’t expect you to hear)
vintage Playboy centrefolds as my desktop wallpaper
my new indigo desk
all the bunny ears for sale at Ricky’s
watching Greek in the bathtub while surrounded by pink glittery bubbles (Lush I love you!)
jingly bracelets
Silversun Pickups
this purple, life-size, glitter-covered skull that I bought
cuddling with my two favourite boys
when people say “Welcome home”
napping
plotting new stuff to put on bulletin boards
Jane from Sea of Shoes (she is a sweetheart)
being reunited with all my clothes
…& even though I am exhausted, the thing I am most pleased about is being home — in my new, real, actual home — with my little family unit. Love love love.
“So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, & demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long & its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people & grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food & for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one & no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools & robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep & pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song & die like a hero going home.” — Tecumseh
Best thing I’ve read in ages.
