Ordinary Is Extraordinary...Friday, June 15, 2012

Pardon my French, but Holy Shit!
As I type the date to this entry, I can't help but think back
to when I was a little girl imagining what the future would be like....
2012.
Sometimes I'm just in awe of the times we live in.....

Sorry, that was a tangent.....

So...back to ordinary is extraordinary-one thing that has not changed about yours truly-
my love for cute, furry living things- especially one in particular named Hunter,
to whom I refer to lovingly as chaton......

Yea I know, another drawing of me and my cat, whatever, I'm unemployed, okay????

As for the wide gaps between posts, well, you can see other pencil markings on my instagram.....

...Over the weekend, I had a little accident...

Actually, it felt like more than a little accident, especially to someone like me,

I'm pretty good at avoiding injuries I must say...

Anywhoot, I got hit by a car on Friday as I was coming home from a jog.

I was pretty rattled, it could've been worse, but the damage (see below)

makes me look tough, in my opinion....

In addition to my bruises and abrasions,

I must say, I'm pretty fortunate to have such caring people in my life...

You know who you are, and thank you....

So, how was your weekend....?

A day in the life of yours truly....

Hello stranger,

Quite the gap, I know....

These daily existential crises take quite the toll, 

not to mention all my time trying to figure myself out

and whatnot...

here's what I've come to realize thus far....

As for what I do with that, well, I'm working on that....

I know it's been a while....

I've really no excuse especially since I'm not employed....

I did take a break from coffee and that's probably one reason I slowed down a bit...

...but,  here's what's new with me.....

With all this time to think and self-reflect, 

I can't help but think about the way we put ourselves together 

every day...

our elements of our personal styles....

how style isn't really something you learn, but rather something inherent...

style, you got-ta have style...

That's what Mr. Maxwell used to say.

He was one of my English teachers in high school, 

probably the best one ever...

and obviously very cool and stylish....

That was his maxim and he reminded us of it regularly, 

by taking the pose below....

And these, well, these are my elements of style....

So I've decided to take a break from coffee,

not caffeine,

so tea has been my morning and afternoon beverage of choice....

And then I thought I'd read this book by Leonard Cohen,

and it was soooooo awful

I had to put it down....

Sorry Mr. Cohen......
