With whimsy. With upside downs, inside outs, tantrums, curls, slip ups, mishaps and baubles. With cakes and ices, creams and salves. With picture drawings, drawing boards, board games and game nights. With words.
"Soon her eye fell on a little glass box that was lying under the table: she opened it, and found in it a very small cake, on which the words 'EAT ME' were beautifully marked in currants. 'Well, I'll eat it,' said Alice"
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Carrol
Burton baby, don't let me me down, down, down.

Badu. Be, do.
If awesomesauce was a drug, Erykah would be the Badu-est dealer in the 'hood. Thirty seconds into her newest, and utterly psychedelic video and I had heart palpitations and cotton-mouth. I was even able to forgive the Lil'Wayne cameo (there are a milli' reasons why I think he should here on out be known as 'ft. Lil' Wayne'), because while I love vintage Erykah, (two of my fave vids after the jump)the woman sure as hell knows how to make a comeback.
The new track is called 'Jump up in the air and stay there' (not actually from EB's much anticipated LP) and features the pair swirling, twirling and tripping through a kaleidoscope.*
You can peep the vid on her site!

I was handled by 'Smooth Operator'.
Magnificently waylaid by 'Kissing You'.
And sublimely humbled by 'By Your Side'
In 2010, I may forget my own name.

A testament to the notion that
sometimes you don't have to look far for inspiration.
You can stand completely still for years.
"I can still actually feel that smell..."
cute.
i hit my first crush in the face with a tetherball.
then held his hand all the way to the nurse's office.
nuit blah
my very first Nuit Blanche was sub par for the following 10 reasons:
1. being totalled by 40-year old men who can't say excuse me.
2. strollers.
3. strollers with children in them.
4. being followed by a hoard of males who only uttered 'bloodclot' ad nauseum.
5. being too vertically challenged to actually see any art from behind huge crowds.
6. huge crowds.
7. waiting in line for public restrooms.
8. public restrooms.
9. running into people you didn't want to see, while missing the ones you did.
10. overhearing this: "I think Nuit Blanche has lost some of its meaning. I mean, it's all about being just for show now."
it wasn't a complete loss due to the following 5:
1. ndeur/duponchel
2. public drunkeness = shadenfraude.
3. watching an elderly couple study an overflowing trash bin as though it were installation art.
4. seeing faces I've missed.
