Have you ever checked out this site? It’s not nearly as popular as it should be. Reading through all the postings makes me lovesick and sets my heart all aflutter. If you think that’s perfectly lovely, then you will adore Sophie Blackall’s artistic renderings of such lost moments on her blog Missed Connections.
I experienced one myself this past Saturday while shopping for some wedding gifts with my sister:
I know, I know, I can’t draw to save my life. If only you knew how much time went into this :P
While shopping for yarn at a crafts store, I bumped into a display of fall-scented candles and it immediately set me to aching for autumn and cooler weather. I’m so excited, you really have no idea (:
A little while later I saw this:
And now I really want to make pretty pointless things with glass vases, sand, and random knick-knacks. Seriously.
I re-found this awesome t-shirt in my dresser last night before I fell into bed:
I am the thrift store queen.
That’s about all.
Tell me about your missed connections, hmm?

I’ve been
1. Working
This little oatmeal cookie dude met his untimely death one day ):
2. Knitting
Picture found here. As awesome as little sushi would be to knit, I’m working on iPod cases for a Lit. Club fundraiser. I’m coming up with ideas for Christmas ornaments, and I’m thinking some sugar cookies could roll in some sweet, sweet cash.
3. Going to school
… and watching awesome movies.
And more importantly, learning why being stripped of your citizenship is the worst possible punishment for a crime.
4. Enjoying caramel macchiato on the daily
mmmmmmm :3 source
5. Watching Hostel, or rather, I watched Hostel. I was making the ‘I have been…” sentence structure work.
There was gruesomeness, but I was expecting so much worse. The optic nerve goop was nausea-inducing though, blechhhh.
I’m watching the hangover myth on MythBusters right now, oh lolz
Oh, and I played in the snow today:

AdultSwim in 10 minutes, hurrah!
