Kelly Kapoor, Kindred Spirit

Mindy Kaling plays my secret, inner-self on The Office and is actually one of the writers for the show. She wrote a new book and an excerpt is available online here. This is one the funniest things I've seen since the Tina Fey book I read a couple weeks ago. That's not very long, but it is still very funny. Go women comedians! Also, see Bridesmaids. Just saying.

Stamps!

This is the most beautiful stamping collection, well, probably ever. Geninne's art blog is so inspiring. Her stamp carving class is something I would absolutely love to take. So, so creative.

beautiful story

Oh my god, this story put up on the Smitten Website is so wonderfully cute and touching...yay for openmindedness is RIGHT!

What you really want to say to mom...

“Sorry, Mom!” is a collection of photos with corresponding text, documenting everything you couldn’t, didn’t want to, or never had the chance to say to your mother. Here's the text that goes along with the picture above.

I’m sorry I made you stand in the snowy, Midwest cold. You’re such a pretty moms and I’ve exploited your early morning face before coffee, which isn’t fair at all. And you’re such a stylish moms and I’ve made a mockery of your bedhead. But you did it all for me without question — and would do it again — because you’re the best mom I could ever ask for in the whole wide world.


So, so great. Sappy, I know, but great.

For your viewing pleasure...

Two wonderful reality/documentaries that need to be seen by all. Frontier House, the PBS version of a reality show teaches American history in a competition to survive the Montana wilderness Oregon Trail style. Beautiful and captivating. The 7UP documentaries is an amazing look into the lives of people starting from age seven in 1964, and now they are 49. Amazing and Brilliant.

Pixelation!

I love the dorkiness and radness of the look of pixelation in the "real" world. Don't know why, just a strange obsession. I made this necklace for a 3-d class a year or so ago and wondered about what else I could do with it. This girl did it for halloween, but i would love that shirt for everyday....not so much with the face paint. How cool is that?!
