mary in the san fran sky

this is probably my favorite song

by what is undoubtedly my favorite band

helen!

jeepers! the moves! the dedication! the peel-away outfits that reveal flesh-colored mid-sections!

if i could be anything in the world, i would be helen.

Love that Lucy

i made this for my littlest friend. she's only about 20 lbs and doesn't

say much, but the girl's got moxie.

McG

okay. can we talk about ryan mcginley for a sec. i mean. woah. these pictures! i have intense caveaphobia, especially in the nude (i'm pretty much afraid of doing anything nude. what if you fall and get stalagmited?) but this makes the whole proposition seem like a soft-core 70's sci-fi flick where everyone has names like skylar and gryphon and they're in the future... or are they? and i would so watch that.

bit & bob

a practice & a left-over from alex's wedding.

i think i'm going to be a gypsy for, the 7th time this halloween. is this normal?

Gems

when 100% of the light in a room is coming from candles (or candle-like objects) you know it's good. Gemma is on my top-10 list of restaurants-i'd-like-to-flower.

the most

like in the last waltz when neil young is all "it's one of the pleasures of my life to be on stage with these people" – that is the feeling that you feel when alex & alexis ask you to take part in anything they're doing. especially nuptials.

i love these people. majorly.

mama's back

this is how i'm feeling. it's a good feeling to have.

mannequin - a cautionary tale

when we were little, my sister wanted to grow up to be a mannequin.  Jen: thank god you decided to get that degree in graphic design, because the recession would surely have taken its toll had you decided to stick with that career route.  you could have been just another poor cha-cha at the doomed virgin megastore, corralled in the basement, getting grab-assed by the other ladies:

(which i guess doesn't really look that bad, but still)

and remember that twilight zone episode "the after hours?" god it's good.  hint: it's about mannequins. i urge you to watch, and thank your little stars that you didn't go down this road.
