Oh bother.

I really really want to just sit down to draw and create but I can't allow myself to do that until the house is unpacked and settled.

Recents.

The past couple of weeks have definitely been a blur. Between wedding things, packing, moving, and Andrew moving up here I feel like I've had no free time (not that it's a bad thing). Sunday night we had a break from cleaning and unpacking the new place when we went to the Grog Shop with some good friends to see The Octopus Project. In typical Grog Shop fashion, the show started hours late and we didn't get home till 2 am, and even though I was terribly tired at work all day Monday it was worth it.

We're holding off on getting internet at home for the next month or two so my posting may be a little sparse.

I realized I haven't posted any of my collaborative pieces with the other bears lately so below is a little update.

Today is not just another day.

Today is the day before the love of my life and I will finally be living in the same house together, let alone the same state. But there are other things that have made today great even in the few hours that I have been awake. The first being a free chocolate frosted rainbow sprinkled doughnut. The second being the discovery of "my desk" in an alternate universe:

I mean, we've got the iMac, Worf mug (which I'm now going to be on a mission to find), Dunder Mifflin mousepad, owl print, and a cute Kamilba. Perfect. (image via: http://desiretoinspire.blogspot.com)

And third, I got an e-mail from TOMS shoes saying they had new fall styles out and there are two that I really love. Just in time too, I was getting ready to buy a new pair.

Dear J.Crew,

I love this outfit (and I normally don't like pink at all). Please make it affordable.

Sincerely,

Cheryl Andrey

Porch gardening.

I was quite surprised to find this blooming on my porch today. I had no idea I was growing black sunflowers. Listening to the Black Keys, always fitting for a hot summer day.

For our new home?
