daydreaming
so in the car on the way home from errands, gallery stuffs and too many conversations, i had wilco cranked and the stream of consciousness began. i was thinking about how glad i am that the gallery colors are red and white and if i would regret that later. kindof like the time when i was 9 years old and i had this whole fantasy about opening the closet door in my room and instead of my pathetic assortment of clothes and stashed goodies, there'd be this amazing purple bathroom, with steps. (because steps in a bathroom are so decadent.) there'd be lavender curtains and a luscious lavender toilet seat cover and the matching rugs.... there'd be white towels with lavender accents.... a two-tone dark purple and lavender patterned shower curtain with a clear liner and beautiful purple ruffles on the top. i always pictured myself on christmas morning rolling around on the pale lavendar carpet after having just been surprized by all my friends and family with the purple bathroom. everyone had read my mind and known how much i loved the bathroom right out of the sears catalog. this was the same bedroom i shared with my sister and i also had an entire alchemy lab on the tip-top shelf of my bookcases. i had to stand on my bed to reach. the shelf had a lip on it to hide what all i had 'cooking' up there. i mixed makeup with powder with cologne with my sister's sea-breeze. all in search of the perfect scent. the great thing about the new bathroom would have been the incredible storage space i would get and access to a sink, right there! perfect! alas. gallery colors. huh, what? yeah, i'm glad about the red. it's my current favorite color.
and now for something completely different, amazing art by eva:
