today & flight 666

We are so blessed to have such an avenue for media at our fingertips.

Here is my morning.

Don't feel good, so decide to get my computer from work and work from home and rest.

Wish I didn't have to do the work part, but that is just how it goes.

So I am home and eating some breakfast, reading through Arkitip's site and I come to

the same you tube trailer, I have below. It is for Iron Maiden's Flight 666 movie on their

tour. Now my morning of rest then work, has turned into FIND this video. Thank you Kyle Blue.

There are certain things about kids that you will never understand. The power of Elmo is one of them. Of course we all heard about the "Tickle me Elmo" craze a few years back, but I was not that frame of mind to pay real attention. When Ella was 6 months old, my brother gave her a "Tickle me Elmo" doll. She was a little scared at first and didn't really get excited until closer to her 1st birthday. She now wimpers ever so softly at Elmo when he isn't turned on to go through his laughing antics. She craves the excitement of trying to decide whether to sit or stand to watch her favorite show.

dream home

How simple would it be to just order a kit for your perfect home. Inside my CASA Voque (yes I am back to that) Is an article about building your perfect dream home. I am sure it is a lovely article on how there are alot more resources out now, of how you can do just that.

Here were some websites that were listed: www.loftcube.net, www.smarthousemabo.com, www.casa.rubner.com and my personal fave: www.shelter-kit.com.

who wants to go in on some land and put loft cubes on it?

we can then make short films reminiscent of CQ :)

casa vogue = love

For Mother's day Nick got me some magazines. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I LOVE magazines. I often wonder why I don't change my path and work for a magazine, maybe I think it would then lose its appeal. I don't know what I would do without this love.

The magazines that Nick got me was Italian and French Vogue. I am not proficient in either of those languages, however there is something about the art direction in european magazines that it is equally as good to just look at the pictures. If I am really itchin to get the scoop, I dig up words in my translation books.

Along with the May issue of Italian Vogue came their CASA Vogue. It states "Unique" at the bottom, so I am guessing it is the antique home issue. Again, this is all a guess and part of the allure. This "Unique" issue of CASA Vogue is fantastic, so I thought I would share.
