sleepy days behind us

Learn to sleep anywhere when in architecture...

Lu at his desk

I don't know this girl but she seemed to find the entrance to the building as the most suitable napping spot.

are those balls?

This is a photo taken of my tv screen during an episode of "600 Pound Virgin". The poor guy seems to be completely taken advantage of by the reality tv people of TLC just to entertain saps like me. This is his extra skin. Those are his balls? I can't decide. Maybe just another skin flap.

Mushrooms... they're so suggestive?.<..+=+?!!!??  They grow out of feces, dead animals, and apparently the planter outside of my door. They can be magical, delish on pizza, poisonous... you get the point. I like them.

Beautiful, innocent mushrooms growing next to my apartment that inspired me to write this lame-ass blog entry.

haaaa penis

Frank Lloyd Wright's inspiration?

because architecture cannot be sculpture

studies

today's informal learning

Today while sipping on one of those Starbucks lemonadey/passion teay things in the west mall I was entertained by one of those loud, racist, crazy, evangelical christian yellers fit with a large sign about fire and brimstone or some shit. Just a few of the highlights of what he taught me in those precious 36 minutes:


-masturbation is a mortal sin
-pornography leads to child molestation and bestiality
-the devil is most definitely a "faggot"
-the people of New Orleans deserved to die
-the people of Haiti deserved to die
-Obama is a baby killer


Here is a very special baby that escaped Obama's clutches
crazy preaching baby

-it is exactly what it sounds like. 
-its the first video on the site
-many of the other videos might entertain you as well.


O and most importantly....

Why my feather shawl is fashionable.

Yes the feather shawl is a staple to my wardrobe. And for good reason. It is warm. It is stylish. It would be approved by Lady Gaga, Elton John, and David Bowie. I plucked each and every feather from dead crows. 

Drew's take on the feathers

Godly

I think Drew came closest to this particular look.

April is kiln safety month

Tour of ACME brick factory all the way out in good 'ole, sausage lovin Elgin. Complete with a souvenir longhorn brick, cheap dorritos from the vending machine, and intense radiation from the kilns. 

simply spring

It was nice to go to a party in the afternoon. Something we all should do more often! To enjoy the sun and the grass and trees. O and of course fruit bubbles, mixed drinks, and Eames videos.

what is it about gas masks?

So many ways to wear it...

And for me...

bikes I likes (cont)

I don't know how I forgot to include this in my bikes post...

enchanted rock is not so enchanting when it's full...

Monday of spring break, Brad and I woke up suuuuuper early (9:30am was tough) and drove a good 1.5 hours out to Fredericksburg to have an overpriced touristy German lunch fit with a frosty mug of beer. The joys of finally being 21. We strolled the streets, plastic cup of local wine in hand. Yes, drinking on public streets is legal there. Imagine if that was the case on 6th street. Would be a much more dangerous place.

Stumbled upon the most amazing "handmade in Peru" owl hat. It's like wearing my new stuffed animal friend on my head. Only slightly foolish. We never grow out of our childhood attachment to toys.

Theeeeeen we drove another 30 minutes to get to the beautiful enchanted rock only to wait in a line of cars and then turned away because the park was at capacity... apparently outdoor spaces have occupancy laws? Fire hazard?

The older, wiser Harper female (mommy) gave us the great idea of forgetting about stinky old enchanted rock and going out to Pertenales Falls. Good choice. We got there around sunset and walked barefoot on the "beach" and climbed rocks.
