so sorry edamame

I think I made the wrong decision today. I found a baby bird (we named it Edamame). A cute tiny little thing. Feathers just starting to grow on it. It did not seem it was injured in any way. I wanted to feed it and take care of it. First instinct is to pick it up and take it, I didn't want a cat to get to it. There was no other bird around. Not even a tree. I searched on ways to feed it, and to keep it warm. I decided to call A.W.A.R.E (Atlanta Wild Animal Rescue Effort), and I actually didn't like what this man said to me. First off, I was scolded for receiving this baby bird. All I asked him was what to do with it. He says to go and put it back. If the bird was on the ground, it was probably learning to fly and it's mother is around somewhere, or it fell out of it's nest. I asked "but what about the situation where you touch a baby wildlife animal and it's mother does not want anything to do with it anymore". He says "it's a myth, it is not true". So I thought for a second........ok........now what if it's mother does not come back, then I wouldn't want a cat to get to the bird. He says "If I had to worry about saving a little bird so a cat wouldn't get to it, I'd have over a million birds right now, go and put it back now and just walk away".
W T F. What kind of rescue effort is that? I understand the whole thing of learning to fly and that would be fine if I didn't run into this little bird, but being there are over 100 cats roaming around in my neighborhood, I was stressed out. Being a huge animal lover, you don't want to hear that shit. I pondered on this. For a very long time. Every time I would pick up Edamame, she would stop chirpping and snuggle into my hand and rub her beak on me. When I would put her down, she would chirp away like crazy. I felt like it's mom. It needed protection. I kept thinking to myself to not mess with nature and put Edamame back. So I walked back down the street where it was found. I sat in front of the fence. I found a spot with a bush by a tree. I picked Edamame up out of the box and it snuggled again in my hand. I wished her well and put her back. I sat there for awhile and watched to see if there were any birds around. None. I kind of stuck her next to a fence where there were a few basset hounds, so hopefully no cats came close. Then I turned my head and walked off.

I have felt pretty guilty for about 7 hours now. I wonder if I did wrong. My feelings hurt. This MAN from AWARE really has me pissed off right now. If anything happens to Edamame, I wish for this man to feel pain.

DESIGUAL DESIGUAL DESIGUAL

Who loves harem pants? Well I do. My co-workers hate them. All I hear is "HAMMER PANTS", but you can't touch this. I found these pants and this dress while i was on an adventure in LA this past week. This skirt is still circling around in my mind. This designer makes EVERYTHING that you could possibly need for your wardrobe. I first saw the Desigual collection while at a show in LA a few years ago. Does anyone remember Oilily by any chance? Well it has risen it seems, but in a different form. Although Desigual has been around since 1984, it is starting to make it's powerful appearance here in the USA. We will have the fall line in Squash Blossom soon, and oooohhh yeah, my whole wardrobe will probably be thrown out for these babies. If you love abstract and to be oohhh'd and awww'd when you step out into the street, then just check out this line. It is FREAKISHLY amazing. Full of color, art, shapes, materials, and just dam powerful. I am hooked, and probably will forever be hooked. It's the kind of stuff you just can't let go of. I'll be 70 and still won't let it go. I just don't understand what took them so long to bust out on the scene. If you want a powerful bold look, then go for Desigual.

-- 10 Commandments for Dogs --

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years, any separation from you will be painful for me. Remember that before you buy me.

2. Give me time to understand what you want from me, don't be impatient, short-tempered, or irritable.

3. Place your trust in me and I will always trust you back. Respect is earned not given as an inalieable right.

4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment, I am not capable of understanding why? I only know I have been rejected, you have your work entertainment and friends I only have you.

5. Talk to me sometimes, even if I don't understand your words I understand your voice and your tone, "you only have to look at my tail".

6. Be aware that however you treat me I'll never forget it, and if it's cruel it may affect me forever.

7. Please don't hit me I can't hit back, but I can bite and scratch and I really don't ever want to do that.

8. Before you scold me for being uncooperative, obstinate, or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right foods or I've been out in the sun too long, or my heart is getting old and weak, I may be just dog tired.

9. Take care of me when I get old. You too will grow old and may also need love, care, comfort, and attention.

10. Go with me on difficult journeys, never say, "I can't bear to watch" or "Let it happen in my absence". Everything is easier for me if you are there. Remember, irrespective of what you do I will always love you.

giggly

I'm packing my bags and moving to Sweden. A must have for the summer. Odd Molly - Oh how i LUST thee. My first glance at this line, i couldn't stop looking at it. Everything about it is just, mesmerizing and sweet. Dainty. I feel childish and giggly when I wear their things. Now the look amazes you, but when you get up close and feel the detail, it taunts you. Every stitch, every tie, every detail finely put. I took a trip to Stockholm not long ago, and caught myself starring at the women there. They were tall, gorgeous skin, impeccable taste in shoes, but their clothing was so awesome. I kept catching these tiny "Odd Molly" tags on their sleeves. All different. Another time I was in LA at an apparel show, and as soon as I stepped off the elevator, I look up, and in front of me is this incredible display of Odd Molly right ahead. Check out their site. You'll understand. Granted I only have one piece, but i will have it forever. Not a piece i would ever tire of. I only have one piece because I have not touched another yet. And when I do, come catch me giggling. Everywhere.

Sucker jeans

Sucker Jeans. Seer Sucker Jeans from the South. Ya heard that right. Right out of Charleston SC. I was kind of like "WHAT?" when one of my girlfriends told me about them. It all changed when I ended up with a few samples in my hands. They are truly amazing. I literally put them on, and never wanted to take them off. Being that Joe's Jeans is one of my most favorites, Sucker Jeans is right up there with them. The material is soft to the touch, breathable, bendable, and just plain HOT. They have all different cuts and colors but the Fulton's are the ones I can't seem to take off. Striped on top of that! I also don't have to worry about the whole ass crackin peep show when I bend over. My uniform: striped seer Sucker jeans, a white tee and my chucks. I'm ready to roll out. Check em out. Or just pop by the shop, I'll force you in them!

Ugh Spring! why do you hurt me so? i can't enjoy you during this time of change. your yellow dust is making me insane.

curlology

each one a different story. never imitating another. i find them everywhere. everyone knows them. i can't hide from them. i even try to disguise them, but they appear. they love the coolness, but won't let me appreciate the heat. when i get angry, they bond. they put me in a nasty knot. i do this move ABOVE HERE and ruin our love. i destroy them. i should love them. they are forever with me.

Him

I've never heard her so angry in my life. That is what I thought, but it was more of a sadness. She finally broke down. Acquiring all the things a person loves in their life and being true to oneself. But she gave in. She gave it all to Him. Him, was untrue. Him took with no regards. Now she's alone. The world is cold to her and she needs to shed. Shed that layer and bring yourself back to the world girl. I need you.
Fuck Him.

Happy Pain Process

This was a gift a dear friend gave to me. He found it at an art show one day. Said he thought of me. It made me smile, it seems I feel what this figure is going through at times. The fungus growing out of my head, and my thoughts all array. It's that happy pain process. Tentacles wrapped all around me.

end of a day

Shedding my accessories from this fabulous 12 hour day of Retail Sessions. I spent the day with and met some amazing characters. I highly enjoyed this day I must say. Especially Miss Sunshine.

Hard Tail

One day. I shall try to pull my body into this position. My love for this Yoga line goes way back, but the best part about this line, are their campaigns. I tried a hot yoga class recently. It was amazing. It was an hour of sweet suffering. I started sweating from the first 30 seconds I walked in, and left soaking wet. It was probably the best detox I have ever had in my life.
