random cool things

I'm recovering, slowly. Just left with some stuffiness to my nose, taste still slightly off and a rattle when I breathe. Lovely, huh?

But to brighten my day, I've come up with a bunch of random cool things...

First off, a gem that makes me think that maybe I could take up bike riding after all...a little beauty called The Betty.

Wishing on a star:

I'm thinking that I really need to get myself a Dream Log to decipher dreams like the one I had the other night, about my parents divorcing and my father taking all three cars and half the pictures off the walls and me trying to convince my sister that if we found an apartment together that we wouldn't kill each other.

LINENS! Yes yes, cool dishtowels:

Keep going...

And it's peach season! Time to try a Peachmolitan!

Or what about a very expensive soccer ball?

And finally, for some really wonderful summer reading, you must check out David Lehman's edited collection of Great American Prose Poems: From Poe to the Present.

I've seen those dishtowels and love them. I thought about buying a couple and framing them. :)

That's awesome! LOL You'll have to tell me how they are when you get them. :)

I love the website with the soccer ball, they have some cool stuff. I love all the lighting options and the hugging salt and pepper shakers.

Did you see the crazy back of the toilet fishtank? I almost want one!!

Verdict: They are not QUITE as pretty as they look online. The colors are stronger (I liked how muted they looked online) and I'm worried that the screen printed color might crack if I wash them. Still happy with them but wouldn't have paid the $28 if I'd seen them in person. Still considering putting one or the other on a canvas, though.
