I took the picture in crap-tacular light so of course it ends up looking all weird... The bottom line is: I HAVE A DESK JUST FOR SEWING OMG! The sewing machine used to be on the kitchen table downstairs but not anymore! And yes, I am addicted to RTS games... they aren't really related to sewing but they are in my sewing space *blush*
dear friends!! on these early january days, we can find gardens everywhere... today, let us enjoy cups of steaming masala chai in the teahouse, as we contemplate the words of the poet:
"there are always flowers for those who want to see them."

(a digital photo taken in my neighborhood yesterday - a storefront wonderland)
He could've tuned in, tuned in
But he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, power, oh
He's.. flying
Whole
High.. wide, oh
He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well, fuckers
He still stands
And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly
