In between hunting down great vintage, listing on eBay and etsy, taking photos, shipping out packages, and learning CSS as I redesign my website (that last one is taking a while), I’ve also been:
^Meeting (and by meeting I mean having beer with): Patrick Corrigan, who is designing a new logo for me.
^Entertaining: houseguests
^Reading: Nuala O’Faolain
^Watching: Madmen, Swingtown, and Project Runway (it’s research!)
^Also watching: Secret Diary of a Call Girl, Weeds, The Venture Brothers, and Trailer Park Boys (not research, necessarily).
^Listening to: podcasts of This American Life, Selected Shorts, and Radiolab.
^Also listening to: Brown Bird (and all the artists on the Peapod label), Kinski, Scissorfight, and The Who.
^Riding: My BMW and sometimes a 1957 Triumph T100.
^Also riding: My mountain bike (though not very well).
^Obsessing over: This…..
Rush on the TV!

But early advertising for BMW motorcycles is the coolest. Love that teutonic Deco industrial look!

Though I’m impressed with her beauty, I’m even more impressed by the fact that she got through Ulysses!

Hand made wooden Kewpie plant holder? ash tray? peanut dish?
From a yard sale in Western Maine.
The look on his face cracks me up – as if someone just pinched his little bottom.

A few other cool things from the North:
Trailer Park Boys: (warning – bad language and drug use)
My associate does an eerily good imitation of Bubbles. I even bought him a pair of thick large framed glasses and chase him around the house with them, begging him to put them on and sing “Liquor and Whores.”
Margaret Atwood (Oryx and Crake is one of my most beloved books)
Jonathan Walford (smart, adorable, and author of The Seductive Shoe)
Vintage cafe racer jackets (not sure why, but most offered sale on eBay are from Canada).
Tourists at Old Orchard Beach in their tiny swimsuits (okay – not necessarily awesome, but always entertaining)
And of course….RUSH: (Double neck guitar, double neck bass, played [gloriously] by bare chested men in satin kimonos! How awesome is that?!)
