I did. Spent a lot of time lazing around having fun, then went to the <a href="http://www.elartfest.com/">East Lansing Art Festiva</a>l. I think I've been spoiled by the Ann Arbor Art Fair my whole life, but I appreciated the brevity of the East Lansing one. MUCH smaller and more bearable, especially in that heat. Wow.<br /><br />Ok, some cool stuff for today.<br /><br />I really like the art of <a href="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/style/p/2010/Apr">Mischief Champion</a>. Some of it is just too funny.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/brian.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 406px; height: 304px;" src="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/brian.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/compromise.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 406px; height: 304px;" src="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/compromise.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/yo-yo_dieting.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 406px; height: 304px;" src="http://www.mischiefchampion.com/images/portfolio/yo-yo_dieting.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Next up, these bags are INSANE.

Worth it? It would get dirty and you'd also have to have the charcoal for it, which is more cumbersome than the grill itself. Still, AWESOME.<br /><br />Speaking of BBQ, I have been spazzing out for the past week about this sangria recipe I saw over at <a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/2010/04/behind-the-bar-jose-joels-mexican-sangria.html">Design Sponge</a>.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/BTB_April_101.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 405px; height: 551px;" src="http://www.designspongeonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/BTB_April_101.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I'm not a fan of red wine OR tequila, and I don't think mixing them would be a good idea, but LOOK how delicious it must be!<br /><br /><br />Speaking of delicious, isn't this just the cleverest <a href="http://decor8blog.com/2010/04/23/weekend-inspiration/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+decor8blog+%28decor8%29">DIY wall art</a>?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p85/decor8blog/friday1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 405px; height: 606px;" src="http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p85/decor8blog/friday1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />It's a lovely image to begin with, but I love those paper flowers.

I keep finding so much inspiration, but I don't have time to even do the stuff I have to do! Story of everyone's lives, eh?<br /><br />Well...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4061/4472682253_4f6c83932b.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 379px; height: 505px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4061/4472682253_4f6c83932b.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Maybe, just maybe...<br /><br /><br />Today I was thinking about how much I love peanut butter. I was surprised to discover <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_washington_carver">George Washington Carver</a> didn't actually invent it, but he did put peanuts in like a billion other things and improve lives. You da man, GWC!<br /><br />So I found some peanut-butter related stuff:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.137254114.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 405px; height: 406px;" src="http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.137254114.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />How adorably silly. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=44758576&amp;ref=sr_gallery_6&amp;&amp;ga_search_query=peanut+butter&amp;ga_search_type=handmade&amp;ga_page=&amp;includes%5B%5D=tags&amp;includes%5B%5D=title">PB&amp;J necklace</a>.<br /><br /><br />Who thought this crap was a good idea?<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.americansweets.co.uk/ekmps/shops/statesidecandy/images/american-smuckers-goober-grape-peanut-butter-jelly-combination--759-p.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 404px; height: 303px;" src="http://www.americansweets.co.uk/ekmps/shops/statesidecandy/images/american-smuckers-goober-grape-peanut-butter-jelly-combination--759-p.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I'd like to meet the guy who greenlighted that one and give him a stern talking-to.<br /><br /><br />I also realized how often people use the phrase "goes together like peanut butter and jelly." Now, if I ever hear someone say that, I think I might have to punch them square in the jaw.<br /><br /><br /><br />Next up, I really dig this room:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.desiretoinspire.net/storage/dining-rooms/romanandwilliams1.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1269896343754"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 404px; height: 298px;" src="http://www.desiretoinspire.net/storage/dining-rooms/romanandwilliams1.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1269896343754" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I often find myself torn between whether I like dark spaces or bright spaces more, but this has a lot of natural light and a LOT of wood, which we know I am in favor of.<br /><br />That may be why I also like this one:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.desiretoinspire.net/storage/living-rooms/romanandwilliams5.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1269896367524"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 403px; height: 320px;" src="http://www.desiretoinspire.net/storage/living-rooms/romanandwilliams5.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1269896367524" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The colors are a little monotonous for my taste, but I see what they did thar.<br /><br />And I've seen this room on nearly every blog I read.

Yes, folks. A funnel cloud was startin' somethin' somewhere around here. I have to say I saw it coming. The sky looked a foul shade of vomit and darkness a bit before we heard the sirens.<br /><br />One good thing that came out of the experience was that I happened across this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=42864989">Etsy gem</a>.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_fullxfull.130805469.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 405px; height: 308px;" src="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_fullxfull.130805469.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Don't worry. It's only TWO-THOUSAND DOLLARS. And I totally submitted it to my favorite site, <a href="http://www.regretsy.com/">Regretsy</a>. I hope it makes it onto the site!<br /><br /><br /><br />This isn't really art-related, but this Tumblr, <a href="http://lesbianswholooklikejustinbieber.tumblr.com/">Lesbians who look like Justin Bieber</a> (and also other folks who just happen to look like him too), has been CRACKING me up.<br /><br />Pahahahahaha!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kz300wu8hA1qbnbfeo1_400.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 600px;" src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kz300wu8hA1qbnbfeo1_400.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />That one is quite the gem. Now let me clarify: I only recently gave enough of a shit to even discover who this kid was, and I have repeatedly made the mistake of listening to several of his songs on Youtube. Each and every time I feel dirty, not because I'm attracted to him, but because I feel like I'm supposed to be and there is a TWELVE-YEAR-OLD CHILD on screen acting like he's some clown down the street at Rick's bar, smarming it up for the ladies.

How about you? I hope you had a good Easter. Instead of celebrating with family or friends, I saw alone in my apartment and let <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTVzJZCVVV4">this</a> eat my soul.<br /><br />But something interesting is going down on the blog today. In my <a href="http://inotherskies.blogspot.com/search/label/Art%20%2B%20Sound">first entry ever</a>, I mentioned something called "Art + Sound," where I choose something artsy and then find an accompanying song. That was supposed to be a regular thing, but guess what? It happened once. Well, it's about to happen again!<br /><br />I couldn't decide on just one photo/piece, so I'm making a triptych for you that captures the song (in my mind).

Things are looking up!<br /><br />I am getting progressively more SUPER excited about my trip to Jersey/New York City. But in more immediate news, I an SUPER excited to see Alice In Wonderland (and to party in its honor) tomorrow night. Check out these <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/44598063.html#cutid1">series of interviews</a> of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton on Jonathon Ross. I've never seen either of these guys give an interview before (I'm probably just not up on the game) but this was so interesting to watch! I'll post the first vid here:<br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HVJvC42U-WQ&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HVJvC42U-WQ&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />It was so cool to hear insight to their work relationship and into both their lives!<br /><br /><br />Next up, I just discovered this online store site called <a href="http://makersmarket.com/">Makers Market</a>.

Yes... indeed. It's Tuesday! Which means Monday is over and we're a day closer to the weekend - namely (in my case) Spring Break! Woooooo!<br /><br />I've found several interesting things over the past day or so, and I've noticed they've all fallen into a nice retro color scheme. I guess I'll comment on that later.<br /><br />By now, I'm sure plenty of you have seen this <a href="http://www.wmagazine.com/celebrities/archive/brad_pitt_angelina_jolie#slide=1">Brangelina shoot from W magazine</a> (2005) via <a href="http://www.whorange.net/whorange/2010/03/brad-and-angelinas-domestic-bliss.html">whorange</a>. Holy cow, is it awesome. So you're gonna look at it again! Except with my favorite photos from the set.<br /><br />The topic was "a crumbling marriage" or something along those lines. Doesn't this just look incredibly awkward? No love. Also reminding me of a scene from <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1315981/">A Single Man</a>, except with a completely different mood.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.wmagazine.com/images/celebrities/archive/2005/07/cess_pitt_jolie_05_h.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 405px; height: 278px;" src="http://www.wmagazine.com/images/celebrities/archive/2005/07/cess_pitt_jolie_05_h.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />What a gorgeous lady, even though I bet you'd be hard pressed to find a woman looking like her in the 60s.

"As a computer engineer, Barbie will show girls that women can turn their ideas into realities that have a direct and positive impact on people's everyday lives in this exciting and rewarding career.'"</blockquote>ORLY, Nora Lin?<br /><br />I have mixed feelings about this. While I fully support Barbie's attempt to be a career woman and expand her horizons, inspiring little girls everywhere to boot up their parents' computer and start coding her first website, I don't know a single self-respecting programmer who would wear sparkly stretch pants. And why does her top have to have stupid digi-graphics on it?

It's a 10-second exposure photo, but I forget we have that kind of nature around here, namely in the UP. Funny how we have colloquialisms unique to the region, eh? Most people out-of-region would have no idea what "the UP" is referring to, and it's rare for other people to say they're "going up north." "Yoopers" is a good one, too. Wtf, Michigan?
