Grand Theft Auto 5000

So I am still up, searching the Internet for eco-friendly baby clothing and rock lullabies. Check out Coldplay's rendition of Don't Panic for little people. One of my dear friends from art class is having a baby shower on Sunday, and I last minute am still looking for gifts. (to be honest I have already got presents, but seriously any excuse to look at baby stuff and I am there. I secretly have a giraffe baby sweater hoarded away in my drawer for my future babes...well not so secretly,I showed my boyfriend today, and miraculously he didn't run away screaming, he's a keeper.)The boy next to me is whispering profanities at the computer, no he doesn't have turrets, he has Grand Theft Auto 4, apparently there were like 2 Grand Theft Auto 3's so is this the fifth? I don't know I am not really a video game girl, except if its Tekkin (sp?)3, the fighting game that you can just randomly press a combo of buttons and stuff happens. The whole hand eye coordination thing I don't have (made obvious in my attempts to play basketball, one of the only 8th graders to still be on JV back in the day, sad I know, but I persevered) So totally uninterested in the whole video game thing, but as a sidenote it is nice to lay on the couch with him not speaking but being totally comfortable.
So today I came home with treasures from the art department. A few weeks ago I worked on the wheel throwing cups in the ceramics room, thinking I would be a natural. And today I picked them up, needless to say they are rather lopsided, but I am a proud mama and will be using them whenever possible. I will post some pictures soon!
Here's to you late night blog reader, sweet dreams!

Summer Solstice Tote by Anthropologie

Summer's here and my weekend in New York is fastly approaching. The boy and I are spending three days and two nights in one of my favorite cities. Obiviously a Yankee's game is a must. I want to see Alice in Central Park and eat a cupcake of yumminess at Magnolia Bakery. Any other suggestions?
