mad for plaid

back in college i went through a plaid phase. i don't think it was as much a love of plaid as it was a love for old man pants. whenever i'd hit up the thrift store, i'd make sure to peruse the old man polyester plaid pant section for new duds. it lasted a few years (in fact there was one year where i think i wore exclusively plaid old man pants, dumb t-shirts and cardigan sweaters), and then it went away. it wasn't sudden, but one day i realized the plants had all been phased out. my plaid

a few years ago, i found this pair. and they weren't used, or old, and they're actually cut for women. i don't wear them that often, because for some reason people notice when you're in plaid pants. but every time i put them on, i think about being young and hanging around doing nothing in particular.

i heart hearts + horses and technology

originally we thought about heading out to sacramento to see hearts + horses (aka park avenue aka wes + juju), but the show was at 8, and after a long drive yesterday we had to poop out. fortunately, juju treated us to a phone call and (static crappy phone connection line aside) it was like we were there. it was so lovely, we put it on speakerphone and hung around just listening.

while the beautiful sounds were seranading us, i went from room to room looking for a horse figurine, but couldn't find one (for the record there are birds, hippos, dogs, cows, pigs, bears, deers, owls, elephants, and more birds but no horses). when i turned came up empty, i decided to just draw a horse. this is what happened instead.

ps. i really do heart these kids and wish they lived next door.
