"There is nothing more alone than being in a car at night in the rain. I was in the car. And I was glad of it. Between one point on the map and another point on the map, there was the being alone in the car in the rain. They say you are not you except in terms of relation to other people. If there weren't any other people there wouldn't be any you because what you do which is what you are, only has meaning in relation to other people. That is a very comforting thought when you are in the car in the rain at night alone, for then you aren't you, and not being you or anything, you can really lie back and get some rest. It is a vacation from being you. There is only the flow of the motor under you foot spinning that frail thread of sound out of its metal guy like a spider, that filament, that nexus, which isn't really there, between the you which you have just left in one place and the you which you will be where you get to the other place."
Robert Penn Warren

My First Animation!


OK guys this is my very first Flash animation....I know its not perfect but give me a break its my first one :) This was an assignment for my new media design class. Also when I exported it into a Quicktime movie format it changed a few things...don't really know how to fix it, oh well.

Last.fm

I am a huge fan of Pandora radio...I use it every time I'm online (which is quite often!) But I've discovered the 40 hour monthly cap. yeah that's right I listened to 40 hours in a month! yikes. So thanks to Michael who told me about last.fm it lets you listen to the radio and share music for free without a limit! :) I haven't quite figured it all out yet but so far its pretty cool.

New Favorite Thing!!

So I bought this the other day and I can't stop using it! Its a lip balm from eos (I got the sweet mint) I would say its better than Burts Bees! I can't wait to try the other flavors....hint hint stalking stuffers! :) click here for their page

I totally agree with this guy! I found this to be really interesting.

I love Etsy, but it just got better!

Now there's a new feature on Etsy that helps you find items you might enjoy, its called Taste test http://tastetest.etsy.com/#. They give you a selection of items and you choose your favorites, from there they suggest more items you might like! Happy shopping!
