today was a busy day

My hands ache though I don't know quite why. Today was busy with lunch with [livejournal.com profile] brienze, a long work meeting at the office, a trip to the grocery store and my regular work schedule. I would just like to soak in a long bath, but I'm still scrubbing blue out of the tub. Fun times.

Two fascinating pieces of art linked today on my LJ list-

Fallen Princesses

Century old color photos from Russia. Yes, color.

Lunch today involved pickled beets and fried catfish. Nom. I also now have the lovely Pink Plastic Flamingo and some Festival of Anuket from the current BPAL limited editions. I smell like a super sweet marshmallow right now.

Yesterday's post and subsequent comments have me thinking long and hard.

The Rapunzel one is so very striking.

Yeah - that one is intense.

I have about four 5ml bottles of the Neil Gaiman collection that I'd love to give you, if you'd like them. They were generously sent to me as a press person, and I have never been able to use them. Plus, this would give us an excuse to see each other in person again!

Whoa! That is a kingly gift of awesome! Perhaps I could trade you a delicious pie?

How could I say no to such a yummy offer?

We're going to Seattle over the weekend, but will be home Monday night, so soon!

The princess images are so neat! I can't help but wonder, tho', if Disney'll drag out the lawyers since their designs for Snow White and Cinderella were used.

Good question - I wonder if there would be a reasonable fair use argument?
