sent me a link on my facebook to this website
the cool hunter
which is actually super neat! i've spent a good amount of time checking out all of it's nooks and crannies. i came across designer
as well and wanted to share some of my favourites! i love all of the bright colours; so much fun!!












after my last blog update, i went back to bed until mikey came home for lunch at two and i decided i had napped enough...so now i am exploring the internet, listening to bon iver (OBSESSED!) coming up with ideas for the etsy shop erin and i keep talking about and possibly painting/designing/working on a new notebook for myself as my current journal is finished. isn't it silly that of all the notebooks i've made, i've never made one for myself?? haha, i know i know...

i found this cute photo on this cute girls blog it gets me excited for halloween, especially since as of two nights ago, i have decided to be hello kitty for halloween! it's going be so cute and so much fun! i have the perfect costume planned.
so i have the day off today, i really need to get some laundry and a few orders that i have but unfortunately i'm a little hungover (meg&i went out for drinks last night) and i am also not feeling so great (very runny nose...perhaps it's the change in weather) either way, i don't know how much i'm going to get done. i just feel like sitting in my comfies, drinking tea and sleeping. we'll see...

yesterday i saw two really good movies. mikey and i went to see the matinee screening of inglourious basterds which was really good...a little confusing at times as i'm not much of a history buff but still really good (sidenote: brad pitt is finally/actually starting to look his age) and then at night i hungout with my friend lianne, we got night kitchen pizza (only the best) and watched wristcutters which was such a cute and unexpected love story. girls, if you haven't seen it...you need to! it also has two of my favourite actors; shannon sossamon (who always always always has the BEST style & hair...it's unfair really) & patrick fugit (who is super cute and so good in all of the movies i've seen him in. which reminds me: must watch/buy almost famous soon!)
since mikey & i are done six feet under...does anyone have any recommendations for movies (new or old) or series that we can get into (we don't have cable tv so we watch a lot of movies)

this photo reminds me of fall...and the rainy day we had yesterday
(i don't remember where this photo came from)
yesterday was nice. i worked 8-5 which seems like it would suck cause it's saturday and obviously i'd prefer not working at all...but it's usually quiet & i get off early enough to still enjoy the day/night. after work i got some shoppers drug mart essentials then mikey & i went and got groceries (which we desperately needed) i dyed my hair; freshened up the red as it was getting kinda orangey...then we made lasagna and garlic bread and watched the last two episodes of six feet under which by the way, is my all time favourite series. even though i am SUPER sad that we're done watching it, they ended it sososo well and of course i was crying. i recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it/has the time to watch five seasons.

kyle sent an update email just to let us know that he had arrived in europe okay and that he was drinking wine and enjoying the town; so jealoooous!!

anyway, i hope everyone has a nice relaxing sunday.

x♥
