Spreading the Love - TiLT

Just a few of the things that are floating my boat, in this week filled with things to be thankful for:

♥ The first snow of the year, showing up early this past week. Does this mean we'll have an especially cold winter? I don't know but the Floridian in me is still entranced by a snowfall.

♥ I love Amy Mebberson's retro pin-up takes on Disney princess. I love this combination. She's an amazing artist. You really have to check out the whole set!

♥ The uber-hawt 2009 Vogue Paris Le Calendrier. Gorgeous but NSFW. Let's all thank fashionologie for scanning these in for us.

♥ My kitten in his silly penguin t-shirt. Don't yell at me! I'm not dressing up my cats. He's wearing this for medicinal purposes (so he won't mess with an allergy related spot). But he does look hilarious.


♥ Wil Wheaton's conversations with his iTunes on Twitter. Totally worth following him just for conversations like these:
Me: When I say 'classical' I don't mean play Classical Gas. iTunes: But isn't it NICE?! Me: Oh, so I'm Brad, now? iTunes: ASSHOLE! Me: Sigh.

♥ The hime gyaru "Princess Girl" trend. I know the look, a cross between Marie Antoinette and Paris Hilton, is crazy and excessive but I kind of love it. I especially love this video with a whole group of hime gyaru girls. These girls are committed! And I think I need one of those pink fluffy coats. Or maybe that Tiffany blue one.


♥ Putting out seed and water for the birds and seeing the bluejays and cardinals flitter in and out in colorful streaks.

♥ And especially our veggie/vegan, cruelty-free, amazingly delicious Thanksgiving feast. For the first time in my life I won't get completely ill afterwards. I’m not talking "oof I ate too much" ill, I mean all the butter and animal grease and sugar in this meal literally made me "hurl my guts up - Happy F**king Thanksgiving - blah" ill. I didn't eat turkey much before because it always made me sick and now I'm really not eating it. And I'm truly thankful. And feeling happier and more connected than I ever have.
