Monday

sipping




























two things i've sipped today:

[ sencha kyoto cherry blossom rose tea ]
i've never been to japan, but this lovely green tea somehow reminds me of when i was there.  

[ apple juice box ]
i arrived at a meeting this afternoon with one of my graduate advisors and as soon as i got there she handed me a juice box.  i had a little giggle.  talking all serious about thesis stuff and sipping on a juice box like a girl in kindergarden.


what did you sip today?

on a day we biked to the beach ... 

Friday

a grand distraction




























yep.  definitely needing this advice today.  just can't seem to find a way to get the day started ... and it's noon already.   i have two days a week (monday and friday) relatively free to do writing/ design/ art work.  but in the end i usually end up puttering around all day, not really getting anything done.  for example, today i spent an hour or so  shaving my living room sofa.  yes, it tends to get pilly, but no, that did not need to happen today (or ever really, ha ha).

it's almost like i need to go somewhere, get dressed and out the door early each morning in order to kick start things. so my goal in the next little while is to develop a new morning routine for these "work" days.  something random and new, but something that i'll fall in love with and actually want to stick to.  perhaps it's tall grass prairie chocolate croissant and black tea at the forks every morning at 8:30.  or maybe an early quick trip to the gym for a run.  don't quite know yet.  

what do you do to kick start your day?

sou fujimoto: house n


ying, my good friend at school, showed us this house by sou fujimoto in class yesterday and i can't get it out of my mind.  it's a home in japan that is meant to be both inside and outside...
