ello gypsy!

my new fave swim suit...i may or may not have broken it...but it will be fixed and worn much next summer.


some of my faaaavorite shorts from this summer--plaid, loose, and perfect. also, the necklace is a creation of my own, made from some suede thread, an old peacock feather earring and a heart-shaped charm. i wear this necklace everywhere with everything (almost).


a shift dress i bough a few summers back that is amazingly vintage looking in its shape and print. also, some amazing vintage blue wedge heels (which you've seen in a previous post) that i absolutely adore. (and of course, my ever-present--so it seems anyway--denim vest).


some rather old outfit photos today/tonight. i am finding myself unable to sleep tonight.


going for more of a sailor-meets-army look with this outfit i wore to church one sunday. it was lovely.
a more recent photo from last week. this is my end-of-the-summer-but-how-i-wish-it-would-stick-around outfit. *sigh* i miss summertime already.




*i greet the dawn
to sleep
the deep sleep
of one
who sleep does not know
or acknowledge
it flits upon unknown
words
glancing off the
lashes
of i
who it cannot
lay victim to
and undoes in its
brief alightment
what has been so hard
wrought and never
accomplished*

good night! good morning! hope you slept tighter than i!

Ginger Peach

I feel like today didn't really happen. Do you ever get that feeling? Nothing much was accomplished because a) I woke up very late, b) it was rainy and cold, and c) I am still crutching around due to a sprained ankle. So, I'm sitting downstairs, watching a CSI: Miami rerun and drinking ginger peach tea, feeling exhausted for (I think) absolutely no reason. I did nothing today that deserves exhaustion as a side effect. But yet, my eyes are watery and I keep blinking--the kind of blinking you do when you're too tired to keep your eyes open for very long.

In the tradition of this very eclectic post, I suppose I should mention how weird it feels to be writing to unknown people who may or may not read this blog. Perhaps it's simply sleepy-talk, but I like to think of it as me writing anonymously for myself, just other people might happen to stumble across an entry and read it as well. I'm sure that made lots of sense. Haha! Oh my. I do need some sort of sleep tonight...church in the morning...and sadly, the thing I look forward to the most is what I'm going to wear. How terrible is that? Don't get me wrong, I love church--the fellowship, Sunday school, even the sermons--but when you're an insomniac and every day feels sort of like a dream, paying attention becomes a bit of a problem. Too bad, so sad, eh?

I have no outfit pictures yet, so the pictures I post tonight will be rather random; just a necklace I made out of old buttons and some pictures to show off some favorite wooden-beaded and shell bracelets, and a pair of shoes that I love.


On that note, I leave you, and go off to finish my ginger peach tea, my episode of CSI: Miami, and perhaps do a little surfing for music on Limewire (suggestions welcome). 'Night all!
