De Vlinderrevolutie!
Behold! My foray into international television!
I was innocently browsing in Moo Shoes, one of my favorite stores in NYC, when a Dutch camera crew approached me on behalf of Olsen Haus eco-chic footwear!
Moo Shoes only carries vegan shoes and accessories, such as the beautiful creations of Olsen Haus. I even got to meet Elizabeth Olsen, the powerhouse behind the company.
If you care, you can watch Episode 6 of De Vlinder Revolutie, of which my appearance starts at around minute 29 (saving the best for last). They should totally hire me as their spokesperson. I already had their Babylon ballet flats, which are a suede-like material made from fibers of industrial TV waste! I also just bought the Grace ultra suede paint splatter hot pink peep toes with silver streaks (sample sale).
I like to kick, stretch and kick. I’m 50!
Thank you Vulture, for this gem. I love when older women just don’t care.
A few weekends ago I ventured to a deserted garage sale in a wealthy neighborhood usually rife with treasure. This particular sale offered little else other than free entertainment from a woman, I’d guess over the age of 65, who was dancing her heart out for her friend lounging in a weaved metal lawn chair. She claimed that she could kick above her head, and dance much better than she was, if she were on solid, tiled floor. Surrrrrrrrrre. But she was astounding nonetheless.
Best video I could find of Sally O’Malley, Molly Shannon’s brilliant character on SNL. Ignore the lame personalized bits.

Toy Bubble Wall
Even as a kid I thought those little plastic bubble shells for vending machine toys held many more possibilities than just protecting a cheap trinket. This would be great for a kid’s room!

Snotface!
If you haven’t seen this:
I pity you.
It’s hilarious and odd, and it’s no wonder that when it was released in 1991 it didn’t really fare well in theatres. But a cult following has carried it along to be released on DVD, and now there is even talk of a remake with Russell Brand. I’m not sure how I feel about that.
Polly: And the prince took the beautiful young girl in his arms and said, will you marry me?
Yes, she whispered, I will be your princess.
Young Elizabeth: Did they live happily ever after?
Polly: Of course, Elizabeth.
Young Elizabeth: How do you know?
Polly: Because she was a good little girl. If she had been naughty, the prince would have run away.
Young Elizabeth: What a pile of shit!
Every little girl needs a Drop Dead Fred.

Interest
I do not like the idea of happiness – it is too momentary – I would say that I was always busy and interested in something – interest has more meaning to me than the idea of happiness. Georgia O’Keeffe

I should probably just buy a print of this already.
