Mad Pash for Fash/Reasons to Melt Plastic
☆ Thumbs’ Up to “the imdb”; What I’m Listening To/Things You Should See ☆
First off, thanks to all of you wherever who did whatever, whenever that made my imdb stats jump so high this week. I don’t know if it’s a result of my presence in the *(cough! cough!)* “Celebrity Lifestyle’ issue of Wedding Dresses magazine that came out earlier this month. I mean, I knew that was a mainstream fluke… I just didn’t expect to see it, well, just about everywhere. Especially, say—on a shopping excursion at 3 a.m. for Redi-Whip at Ralph’s.
Then again, I also didn’t anticipate going from having three cameras in my possession to none in the span of a week and a half.
As with anything in my life, it seems I have to learn my lessons the hardest way imaginable. Rather than talk about despair (I mean, please—how many years was I Too Goth To Handle? There’s only so long I can go around having a bad time everywhere!), I’m just gonna “suck it up’ and buy a Canon that’s been recommended.
So…since I don’t have any “exclusive’ photos at the moment, I figured:
Why not post about some of my current obsessions?
Today I’m diggin’ on…

A runway look from a while back that’s haunting me in the best way imaginable…
Somebody. Help me. Please!
Who’s responsible for this stroke of slick black genius?

Then– of course, what’s a little…screen-saver/site-scan shopping?
Granted, I can’t fight off the lyrics that come to mind of someone who truly understands the meaning of the word irony: Lily Allen. Her demo “I Don’t Know” is such a strychnine-soaked smiley-faced commentary on contemporary society; rarely a day goes by that the sardonic lyrics don’t get queued up on the ol’ iPod.
Despite the cadence that resonates through lines like:
“I am a weapon of massive consumption/
It’s not my fault/it’s how I’m programmed to function…”
Here’s where I succumb to that which I
COVET (cause I just plain)
LOVE IT.

However, as for now?
My head aches
and I must sleep…
Besos, baby.
Besos…
