Cruel Summer




Dress: Modcloth
Cardigan: Target
Belt: F21

It's sooooo much colder here than in Florida! The days are overcast, there's mist and rain and clouds...it's kind of a bummer. In any case, at least I get to break out my sweaters and tights again.

In any case, I'm really happy to have more time to work on personal art and that kind of thing...even though, ironically, all I feel like doing is watching cable. I'm getting things done, but a lot slower than I thought I would.

Anyway I saw this challenge posted on Kelinda's blog (from Mind Sticker), and it sounded like loads of fun! It's a 30 Day Music Challenge, starting with your favorite song:




When I was a kid, ALL I listened to was KISS. They're still my favorite band, and they were my first concert as well! I used to really like the intro to this song in particular (it's kind of rare to hear it; usually they use it as an intro to "She"). :D

  15. You are too stinkin' cute -- and isn't it weird that when you have a bunch of free time to work, that's the last thing you want to do?? Haha! I hadn't heard that KISS song before, so I'm already liking that this Song Challenge is letting me hear new stuff!

    The intro is really gorgeous -- not at all like something I'd associate with KISS. But then the rest of the song picks up and I'm like, "Ah yes, there's the KISS I'm used to," haha! And it's funny -- if I hadn't seen the title of the song, I'd think they were shouting "ROCK BOTTLE!" (because I am hard of hearing, apparently) Love!
