New Job, New endeavors

After being a waitress for over a decade, I'm trying out a new gig.  I'll be working as a sales associate at one of my favorite places to shop ever.  I'm extremely nervous about working in such a tempting environment.  I'm also helping style That Girl Em for her weekly party, Tiger Beats.  I like how I'm dressing her, but eventually I'd like to take some more risks.  So here's a few pics:

Tove Jansson and Per Emanuelsson chain shoes.  I would dress Em in these shoes with a cutout one piece in a neon color.  Of course either she or her feet would hate me after!

That Girl Em in a detachable pearl and bow necklace from yesstyle.com, Kenneth Jay Lane necklace, J Crew bandeau swimsuit top, Topshop tank, her own shoes, leggings, and shorts

some random knee high socks I had, pink Chuck's that you can't see (her own), hello kitty tank top from of all places Hot Topic LOL!, and an urban outfitters faux leather skirt

Bang bang!

Hevisaurus...  Seriously on that next sh-t...  Kind of...  Read about who they are and why they may or may not deserve to be on your radar here.  If you can't read Swedish or Finnish (I can't tell), then try here.  I'd tell you all about them but perhaps it'll be better if you just watch the video eh?

Why I Hate My Cat, Vishnu

He'll try to kill anything that moves. Feet under a blanket. Attack! String hanging from a hoodie. Attack! Piece of trash blowing in the wind. Attack!

Critter in a cage. Attempted attack!

The latter is what I hate the most about Vishnu. I can't have any other pets. I've tried. Former roommates have tried. He gave Taterpuff Jr, a nice little mouse, a heart attack. He nearly burnt down my apartment after knocking over the heat lamp for my roommate's bearded dragon.

I know I should just deal with this companion of mine that will probably live for at least another 10 years but I have a lingering passion that Vishnu just wont let me indulge in...

I love rats.

I grew up with them as pets. My best friend has like 6. They're my favorite animal.

Don't get grossed out. Geeze.

The taboo that rats are plague carrying vermin and filthy creatures to shriek at the sight of makes me mad. Seriously, I'm not going to grab one off the streets and call it my own. That is gross and dangerous. There is a science to choosing the proper rat. And once you have one you will scoff at all other pets.

I bet you didn't know that they are extremely cleanly animals. They can be trained to do all sorts of cool stuff. Think of any trick you can teach a dog and you can train a rat to do it. I've seen a rat and dog become best friends. They napped together, cleaned each other. It was damn cute.

In India they worship them. There is a temple that is dedicated to them. The worshippers drink out of the same milk bowl that hundreds of thousands of rats drink from daily. I'm not that into rats. But that's a fun little fact.

If you don't have a crazy street cat like Vishnu, I highly suggest getting a pet rat. You won't regret it. Promise. If you don't believe me about how amazing these critters are, check it out here for more information.

iPad gets blended

Yeah.. Well...  Let's see if the kindle does this in real life.  Truthfully, books are going out the window within 20 years just like the post office and written checks I think.  Until then these sort of things will be pretty weird..

Dakota...Cherie...Taylor...The Runaways

I haven't seen the Runaways yet, but am pretty weirded out by Dakota Fanning growing up.  I'm wondering if she'll be a lesbonic Jodie Foster type, drug addict, train wreck, arrested, or whatnot.  Any other bets are welcome.  I think she might end up a lesbonic Jodie Foster type...seriously.  I do think that right now she looks like a wholesome tween- maybe too wholesome looking for the Runaways film.  I think Taylor Momsen would have been a better choice, but lately she's annoying me on Gossip Girl too much, so hahaha.  Seriously though, Taylor has a band and likes that whole rock n roll thing.  Maybe the role would have been too similar to the rebellious Jenny Humphrey character she plays...or her own real life persona.  Such as saying crude things and smoking a bunch of cigarettes at sweet 16.  Anyhoo, does anyone remember when people were counting down the days of the Olsen Twins turning "of age"?  I think some perverts are probably going to do the same thing to Dakota Fanning as she gets older.  Anyways here are some pics of Dakota, Cherie, and Taylor...

Also, I am pretty annoyed by all the "Alice in Wonderland" inspired fashion.  Can we get some "Runaways" inspired fashion instead?!  That would be fun...thx.

Terry Richardson exploits and adventures...

Fashion photographer Terry Richardson has come under fire for sexual misconduct, sexual harassment, and being a perv.  Model Rie Rammussen claimed he takes advantage of young girls and model Jamie Peck wrote of how he propositioned her for a hand job. 

Quite frankly, a lot of male photographers are pervy.  Sometimes it seems like male photographers are only photographers because it gives them an excuse to get girls naked and into compromising positions.  Richardson's perv nature is pretty clear if you look at his diary or work.  I'd say he's up there with Dov Charney on the perv scale.  Evidence:  he loves thumbs up, thumb sucking, nudity, and wears nothing but plaid into his mid 40's.  I bet he loves high fives too...It's weird because Richardson and Charney make being a perv look cool.  It's a thin line...

I'm not really sure what to think about all of this.  Peck's story is a bit ridiculous.  I can't tell if she was slightly into it, just being a fame whore, or actually ashamed.  Frankly, I think she should explore her kinky side in a safe environment with someone she trusts...The creative process with a photographer can be untraditional, as is Richardson's.  Overall, potential or current models should take wary of working with photographers they feel sketched out by, always have a consent/ release form, and be vocal about what they feel comfortable with.  There's power in choice and power in voice.

Here's a good article from the Guardian.

Opera gets real dope at MTI

from the set of the Opera^

Death and Powers: A Robot Pageant,  MIT Opera?

If ya'll haven't heard of this, I recommend you google it.  I was reading the American Scholar magazine, from last winter mind you so I'm a bit late, and saw this...  I wish I'd seen it.  Its about time that Opera got remixed..  I'd write the history of it, but truthfully think its easier for ya'll to just watch the video.

Read more on another blog obviously not as good as this one.
