Let me just tell you, if I were a man, I would dress in a suit every day. There is nothing hotter than a man in a nice slim fitted tailored suit. No wonder I loved those mod boys in high school. Ooh, suspenders are also hot. And hats, men don't wear enough hats these days. Anyway, more about being a woman - I love being feminine, but really, for some reason, nothing feels more sexy than a tie and a crisp white shirt.

Goldie Hawn: Sexie Time Hero
I was just looking at the blog of lady hotness Nicole, American Jive, and she has reminded me of the extreme radicalicity of Goldie Hawn. Can I get a Hot Damn?!
I think this will become a regular posting, Sexie Time Heroes. So, Goldie, you're #1.
May 26: Happy Memorial Day
This weekend has given me many fond memories. I really do believe that the men and women who serve their country are commendable, but goddamn, I just don't see the point of war - AT ALL. We shouldn't have to have a Memorial Day. I'm not just saying this as free spirited liberal (whatever that is) hippie child, I'm saying this as a daughter of a Veteran, and a lover of America. Fuck Bush, fuck the War, fuck gas, fuck your car, and fuck everyone with an itch for fighting. Happy Memorial Day. I'm going to make some cupcakes.
I felt like a little girl in this outfit:
We brought out the super cheese for Memorial Day:
May 25: Great Long Weekend

May 24: What a Lazy Day
I didn't sleep very well last night, thus, I've had lazy eyes all day long. I made Jose the Cat a plush toy today. It's a flying fish. I think I might go into mass production. 
Here's the toy, flying high:
May 23: Happy Birthday Dad and Bob
Today was my dad's birthday. I really can't remember how old he is, and I'm sure he's happier that I can't remember. Today is also Bob's Birthday. Bob is a good time. however, I went to dinner for Adam's birthday tonight with his parents. It was yummy and I am full.
Happy Birthday Dad:

I Heart the Constantines
A while back, my friend Levi introduced me to the Constantines. I was in love with the band instantly. They released an album this year, and I can say that it's not my favorite, but when a band you love cuts a decent album, you love it anyway. If you're going to buy a Constantines album I recommend their self-titled album, however, Shine a Light received higher acclaim. But, what do I know?
Here is an older video of one of my favorite songs, "Nighttime/Anytime (it's alright)". The levels are blasted a little, but whatever.
This poem I wrote a while back is an aubade influenced by the song in the video above:
If nighttime was a lover, well then, i was a dreamer.
and you were the water and we were everywhere.
Burnished in the lights from town
flashed in the orange glow and the
salmon seduced the sunlight with flashing fins.
If nighttime was a lover, well then, i was a dreamer.
May 22: Things are Looking Up, for Now
I wore blue today. I didn't realize that I wore so much blue until I started posting my outfits. I guess I like blue, who knew?
It rained today. The weather has been so fickle; one minute it's raining the next thing you know, it's 90 degrees. Weird.
With Rain Gear:

May 21: Happy Birthday to The King
King Adam Morrey, that is. He's had the nickname of "King" for some 11 years or so, and let me tell you - he's lived up to the moniker every day of his life. The man is a hard worker, he's creative, he might as well have written Waldon Pond, he's got a heart, a sense of humor, and best of all, he's one of my dearest friends.
Many of my most fearful moments in life have been a result of being with Adam. However, it is also fair to say that usually these fearful moments yield the most amazing and happiest experiences of my life. Here is a list of circumstances King as put me through:
The "Bad":
sub freezing temperatures
extreme hunger
climbing in the dark with a heavy pack
slamming me into the side of mountains while belaying
hiking in places that consequently made me duct tape my toes together
hiking into wilderness that was on fire
climbing really scary climbs that were most likely far surpassed my level of skill
making me eat wild mushrooms
And, after all of this, I still come back for more, adventure after adventure because of all of these "GOOD" things:
hiking through the most beautiful places on earth
knowing my limits of stomach
giving me better night vision
making me tougher
learning DIY field tactic medicine
helping me deal with my fear of fires
learning how to climb way better
trying new foods with the fear of dying because of it is always adrenaline pumping
perpetually teaching me things like how to fly fish better
All in all, Adam is amazing. Here is a short photo story of some of the above adventures:

One of the views from the coldest camping trip I'd ever been on: 
Adam and Heather at the country club party:
Adam finished a Century Ride (100 mi) in 4.5 hours, on a 70s schwinn that probably weighs over 50lbs:
Picture Adam took of one of my near death climbs:
We totally lost at shuffle board, but this photo is a winner:
Happy Birthday, you're not the King for nothing.
Here's the normal Sexie Time:
I was a little angry today:

May 20: Winds of Change, Literally, Figuratively, and All the Rest
Today was a big day of changes. I told my place of work, which I've been employed at for over 3 years, that I have to move for an extended period of time. That was harder than I thought it would be. I really do love my job, at least I don't mind it. It pays me, gives me a flexible schedule, benefits, paid time off, and I work with the best bunch of ladies around. Anyway, duty calls.
Another change is my perception of someone. Everything I thought I knew, I was wrong about. I am so deeply hurt by this person that I couldn't sleep last night. For a while, I thought I was tough as nails, impenetrable by emotions. I was wrong, wrong, wrong. I can't believe some people can be so selfish and self-depreciating. I hope that I can rekindle the friendship I thought I once had, but for now, it seems too wounded to heal.
It was so windy today. I don't have screens in my windows and it was 90 degrees yesterday, so, I had my windows open. There are now a billion little seed pods blanketing my floors. I also woke up with said seed pods stuck to my face and various other parts of my body. What a day.
Also, thank you Annie, my dear friend. 
Megan and Solo (I don't think a post has gone by without at least one dog photo, in weeks):

Doors:
e.e. cummings is one of my all time favorites and today he is who I need to comfort my pains:
what if a much of a which of a wind
gives the truth to summer's lie;
bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun
and yanks immortal stars awry?
Blow king to beggar and queen to seem
(blow friend to fiend: blow space to time)
-when skies are hanged and oceans drowned,
the single secret will still be man
what if a keen of a lean wind flays
screaming hills with sleet and snow:
strangles valleys by ropes of thing
and stifles forests in white ago?
Blow hope to terror; blow seeing to blind
(blow pity to envy and soul to mind)
-whose hearts are mountains, roots are trees,
it's they shall cry hello to the spring
what if a dawn of a doom of a dream
bites this universe in two,
peels forever out of his grave
and sprinkles nowhere with me and you?
Blow soon to never and never to twice
(blow life to isn't:blow death to was)
-all nothing's only our hugest home;
the most who die, the more we live
