my preoccupations copulate
My two obsessions just met and had baby:

Apt hunting in Midtown:
This highrise unit took my breath away on Wednesday.
& my new bike friend:
I came home to this stunning white horse waiting for me in my living room.I couldn't be happier with it, Thanks Keirincycles.
Parker seems to dig it to.
must see: Earthlings
What else could be a perfect follow up to the heart shaped salami than this grotesque displays of human consumption and slaughtering?

On recommendation by a friend I've been watching Earthlings at my desk. I haven't even finished it because there is so much wincing and pausing involved that by the 35 minute mark it's been an eternity. I'm not going to stand on a soap box and make grand declarations but I suggest see it, if you haven't already.

EARTHLINGS is a feature length documentary about humanity's absolute dependence on animals (for pets, food, clothing, entertainment, and scientific research) but also illustrates our complete disrespect for these so-called "non-human providers." The film is narrated by Joaquin Phoenix and features music by the critically acclaimed platinum artist Moby.

links
I've been a bit too preoccupied with apartment hunting to internets browse. I'm not very concerned though, my priority right now is finding a space made out of bread and covered in cakes.

I'm not even going to list what's not making me happy right now. It might crash the blogger server.

85°F with a 0% chance of Fall
I recently picked up the fall issue Martha, as I do every year and I've came to the realization that I really shouldn't . It's still hot as hell here in Miami and we're no where near autumn. I have bookmarked pumpkin recipes, autumn inspired decor (like those pumpkin & squash mushrooms), and Halloween costumes. It's all a little depressing when it's 85°F with 76% humidity. What is it about fall that is so amazing? It's one of the only things I cherished about living in Boston. Miami is the murderer of seasons- all we know of four seasons is: hot, really fucking hot, still sorta hot and slightly bearable.
I absolutely love these dapper wool clad bird folk. This is so far from my current world that I might as well grow feathers.

I blame the taupe.
Why else would an immaculate, encapsulated typewriter collection, taxidermy and crown molding not make sense? Monday, September 21, 2009

must read: The Road
I just finished reading Cormac McCarthy's The Road and I'm totally shook. 
I ripped through this story in less than a week. It's definitely a must read. I've never been one for post apocalyptic tales but the gloom&doom sitting over slivers of hope was consuming. I can't wait to see the film next month.
All morning I've come across work that reminds me of scenes imagined in the novel.
