The super sweet Livi from
Making Everyday Count gave me a blog award. Woohoo!
( Check out her blog to follow her adventures. She's always up to something fun! THANKS, Livi! )
So here's 7 more random things about little ol' me:
I miss spending time in the darkroom. I even
(kinda) miss the stinky fixer smell.

I have a pretty huge fear of feet. I hate them.
(So instead here's a photo of my new favorite boots.)
I'm pretty sure I'm a musical late bloomer. I was always more into movies during those times one is supposed to be all angsty and into music. But now, I can't seem to get enough tune-age.

My lucky number is 4.
"Faerie Glen, limited edition fine art print" by IrishPhotosI've traveled a lot of Europe, but never made it Ireland. I must remedy this!
I was born and raised outside of Detroit. I miss it. I love it. It still has a hold over me.
This is one part of a great positive view of the city.

I like my martinis dirty.
(hee hee.)
I'm passing this award onto all of you, my dears.
You are the most stylish buncha bloggers ever!

It's one of those mornings that can only be described as "moody" outside. Dense fog swirls between stoic pine trees. Traffic and people everywhere, but still seeming...quiet.
Today I am feeling...
Wistful.
Cheerful.
Hopeful.
Curious.
Hungry.

Yesterday was Canada's Thanksgiving Day (or as Robin Cherbotsky calls it "REAL Thanksgiving."). Since feastgiving is one of my favorite holidays (c'mon...food...ALL DAY...what's not to like??), and it never hurts to have a reminder to be thankful....

my dear readers

Plush artists from all over the globe displayed their phenomenal creations, covering every square inch of the shop.
I have my eye on that plaid kitty...
Cheer up, Sooks. It's Schmany -- not the dentist!
So much creativity in such a tiny space!
If I were Rockefeller, you'd be MINE!
If you find yourself in Seattle one day, you MUST stop in and visit
Schmancy. I don't think there is a greater concentration of cuteness per square foot anywhere else in the city.

Things they are a-changing around here, in my "real" job anyways. But never fear -- it's actually a good (even great) thing. But it's upheaval. And change. And DETAILS. blargh.
So today's Fashion Friday is coming to you in easily digested bite size form.
Well it's on
clearance now.
(You're welcome : P .)I am dying dying dying over
these.
Maybe they'd distract from my (now so obviously not intentional) two toned hair color?
Newest nail polish obsession:
I have big plans to get my nails did at their
Seatac airport salon, when I fly out for an upcoming wedding.
(thanks to Katie for indoctrinating me. : P )
Don't forget to start thinking about your Look for our upcoming
Virtual Fashion Show (stiiiiiiill needs a better name! ).

Hi. My name is Kelli. And I'm a paper ephemera addict.
I have dozens of boxes stashed away, filled to the brim with scraps and bits and nonesense that I just can't bear to part with (even though I think the hubbers says he will never, EVER move them again) . The past few days I've been sifting through, amazed at the utter random-ocity of my collection.'
So naturally, I thought I'd share some of that with you.
Receipts, tickets, sugar packets, maps, a phone card, kinder egg leavin's - from Italy, London and Paris. No little detail was too mundane to overlook. Even the sugar seemed happier across the pond.
A high school friend and I used to swap plain folders during the classes we had together, and create complicated doodles for each other. We've since lost touch, but I kept my folders. I wonder if she has hers?
I buy old postcards at flea markets. Boring postcards. I love 'em. (Don't judge me.)
Train tickets from a summer class I took in Orvieto, Italy. Yeah, I went shopping in Florence. A lot.
One of the first photos I've ever taken with a manual SLR. High school beginning photo class!
A random polaroid from freshman year in college. I dont' know who this is, why I shot it or why I've since KEPT it, but there it is. But I do recognize that as the tangled mess of cords beneath my desk.
A page from a scrapbook I have virtually no memory of compiling. I recognize (vaguely) everything inside, but WHEN did I make this?? Creepy.
This is the stuff that makes me really happy. Each little scrap is a memory (if only a partial, fuzzy one....). It probably makes me a weirdo, but I'm comfortable with that. It's my freak flag, and I'll fly it proudly. : P
