moving right along

2 days before moving from San Diego, some good friends gave me the best birthday present ever!
...a private viewing of the Muppet Movie after hours in their art theater!!! 
it was so much fun and truly a dream come true. the day after that, we held a massively unsuccessful garage sale (our signs blew down but we didn't figure that out for hours), packed up and moved to our new spectacular Santa Monica home.
as i am now leaving the 40-hour desk job, work week FOREVER, i think this is most fitting for the month's theme:



p.s. the Muppet's Green Album just came out. Covers of all their songs by Weezer, OK Go and the like. I took a listen. ...eh.  at least people are showing appreciation for muppet awesomeness.

Do you have your library card?

You know how sometimes you look at a piece of artwork and say, “I could totally do that”? This is not that kind of art. Brian Dettmer makes crazy intricate scalpel and razorblade-cut paper sculptures that would have me literally in stitches if I tried to replicate. …And so I just enjoy the view (click for flickr amazingness). NYC kids you can too this month at Kinz + Toulou Fine Art. Opening reception is May 19th!

i can't WAIT until they make tails!!!

do i like necromimi because it's got my cat's name in the title, or do i like it because i can now communicate with her on her terms? i don't know and i don't care.
i want neurowear necromimi cat ears!!!

stop go go go!!!

my ears, eyes and toes are having a mini dance party!

LLOVE is only temporary.

Someday, and maybe sometime more details in another post, I will stay in the Lloyd Hotel in Amsterdam but today if wishes made things true…I’d be on a plane to Tokyo before November 23.  And shortly thereafter having a slumber party at the LLOVE Hotel (in the mattress room, if possible). This very Japanese pop-up hotel is an art/architect collaboration between Japanese architect Jo Nagasaka and Lloyd director Suzanne Oxenaar (plus several guest Dutch and Japanese artists) and I really, really want to jump on these beds!

Designed by Richard Hutten, here's just a snippet of this room's description:

As an extra layer, referring to the outdoor, you will find some leaves growing on strange places. The room is not suitable for business men on a business trip, but very suitable for tourists not in a hurry, people in love, and everyone who knows how to enjoy life!

Book your stay (or just check out the rooms) here and here.
