two - your first love

I don't remember his name.

It was kindergarten. My best friend's name was Margaret. She had long dirty-blonde hair. I also knew this other girl named Brooke. (She was the one who whispered swearwords in my ear one day. I remember it vividly.)

I don't remember his name.

But I know it started with an M. He wasn't very nice. Looking back, his face was creepy, and slightly snake-like. But he could DRAW. Such talent! Those are the qualities I remember about my "first love". Mean, snake-like, and artistic. 

Does that count? It's a lame story. But here's a really good song:

perfect for a snowy day

It's a blustery day outside, and this song has been keeping me warm.

oui, oui!

This made me swoon a little bit. I simply adore it. And I want to go to Paris with all my heart.

can I fly?

Lovely.

remember how stop motion thrills me?

Thanks to Al Pal for posting this video...I was overcome with the giggles when I saw it. The dresses, the cultural references, the hair, the glasses, the glory...enjoy.

current obsession[stop motion]

The lovely Alison Sudol, of Fine Frenzy fame.

I met her once.

Stop motion...fascinates me. Once I start watching, I just can't look away. So many pictures to make a one minute video...but it's so beautiful when it's done! Ah.

This video* is true love.

It has such an Alice in Wonderland feel to it -
whimsical and pretty.
