I'm sort of watching the Oscars and thinking about my forever love of James Franco. It all started with 'Daniel Desario' of course on Freaks and Geeks, one of my favorite things. I just kind of love how he does whatever he wants (which is pretty much...everything?), makes the greatest facial expressions, and always seems like he is in another world. I'm sure you understand! I feel like we've probably shared every Freaks and Geeks clip on here before, but there's always room for more!
I never get tired of this one, as I'm sure you can tell, haha.
Some of my favorites from Edward Hopper: Automat, New York Movie, and Nighthawks. In school I must have done at least three essays and studies of his work, as there is always just so much to talk about and discover in it. I love how so many of his paintings, and not only the famously titled "Nighthawks" have that solitary, 'up all night thinking' feeling to them. It's that exact moment in the night where time seems to stand still, and you can catch up on stringing all of your thoughts together. If this does not make sense I apologize, its only because I have been doing exactly that for a bit too long! photos from here and here
I think that I've always taken a lot of inspiration from 1960's and 1970's country stars, and those who emulate them well. I love the dark hair with curls and extra girly dresses that they always had occasion to wear. Riding boots are another favorite of mine, along with a bit of plaid, two things that I find myself wearing all the time in the Fall and Winter. They always had the best sundresses too, which makes me excited for Summer!

I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned this before, but I'm a grilled cheese enthusiast. Grilled cheese sandwiches are one of my top favorite foods, and I love to spend (waste? noo) lots of time on sites like these two admiring the work of genius grilled cheese artists. Some day I hope to be able to craft such lovely sandwiches! Just thinking about grilled cheese makes me miss Toronto, and the really nice restaurant in Kensington market called 'The Grilled Cheese'. I apologize if this has just made you really hungry...
p.s. Notice Jenna Fischer narrating on Grilled Cheese Academy? Haha!
I have a sort of love/hate relationship with the time of year when it's too cold to go outside. I've been listening to Air a lot lately though, so I'm thinking that maybe I'm ready for Spring.
I suppose today is a good excuse to look at some pretty pictures and watch a funny video with Morrissey and puppies! (As if I don't already do these things everyday...) Happy Valentine's Day!
