Earworm of the Day: The Vandals

Whenever I hear "lady killer," I immediately think of this classic by local punk legends The Vandals, and thanks to the throwing around of the word on The Voice tonight, of course now it's in my head lol. Now it could possibly be your turn...enjoy!

Daily Life Through the 20th Century Books

A late addition to the series, some wonderful books that add some more depth to any novels set between 1900 and 1990. And if you love to write as much as I do, they are definitely worth owning. I can't recommend them enough, and own three others from the line. Happy reading!

Sounds of Spring

Spring has sprung! The cold, long nights are getting behind us, nature is waking up and doing its thing, and 16 to 18 year olds across the country turn their thoughts to two things: spring break, and the Junior or Senior prom. Why not set the mood with some songs collected by ITunes?:

New Thing I'm in Love With: Dr. Martens Polina Shoe

The gods know how much I adore clothes...especially shoes. To me, nothing quite pulls an outfit together like an awesome pair of footwear. Yep, I'm a self proclaimed shoe ho lol, and one of my absolute faves is Dr. Martens. Trolling their site not to long ago, I came across a shoe called the Polina

and immediately began to get the vapors...the reason? These two pieces of clothing I already own:



Well, them, and the fact that the two sides of me, the alternative and retro, came together (and beautifully) in one shoe. Instant Nirvana. They also come in soft grey and porcelain and rasberry, off white and blueberry but I like the first ones best. Ah, there's nothing to compare with that feeling of OMGDS that would go SO perfect with that! I just live for those moments. I hope to be making a purchase (and to have that sweet sensation again) soon!
Update: another pair of lovelies to add to the above from T.U.K. shoes!

In yet more shoe love, another pair from T.U.K. I highly covet:

Why? Because of this shirt I own by Tripp;

Sigh, why do I always find things I love in bunches (and usually expensive) when I'm broke lol? It's a vicious cycle I tell you! :-p
