whistle while you work

I awoke to zero water in my apartment this morning. What a harsh way to start Friday. Thank god that I have a tendency to leave half-filled glasses of water lying around, or things could have been much worse (I like to brush my teeth before riding the bus, thankyouverymuch).

I'm half a day away from the weekend, and this is the perfect way to kick it off:

Work Song From Postal Employees in Ghana (MP3)

I first heard a clip of this on an episode of Radio Lab, but it's nice to be able to hear more of it here.

Via the always informative boingboing.

weekend recap

This weekend:

I blantantly copied a great haircut (thanks, Nadyne!) and a diy (I acknowledge that this photo is terrible, but it encapsulates both beautifully. I promise to post better photos later)...



...bought some tasty cured sausage, complete with beautiful packaging, from the market...



...and took some candid shots of snails. They never fail to make my day.



How was your weekend?

this is just how my face looks

This print is so unbelievably perfect.

At least a few times a week, someone in my office asks me if I'm OK, because apparently I wander around looking distraught. I'm so self conscious about it that I make a dedicated effort to fake smile every time I walk by my boss' office.

I'm seriously thinking of buying this and putting it up in my cubicle.

Happy Friday, I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend (how's that for enthusiasm!)!

merci!

Thanks to everyone who came to Puces Pop on the weekend!

I always need a few days to decompress after a big show, but I'm happy to report that there are some exciting things on the horizon, so stay tuned!

today!

I'll be at Puces Pop all day today, so if you're out in the sunshine, swing by and say hi! We're located at the St-Enfant Jésus church on St-Joseph and St-Dominique from 11:00 until 6:00, both today and Sunday.

This is the only sale that I'm planning on doing this summer, so if you want to come and check out a few new goodies, and grab some good deals, now is your chance!

Happy weekend!
