Purposefully misshaping cutout cookies to make the gingerbread men into dancing gingerbread men.
Tights in bright colors.
Cleaning out my image files.
Deciding I'm done looking at fashion photography.
A mermaid in a martini glass.
The shape of orchids. It's so peculiar and architectural, no?
My current Firefox Persona.
Making a Greek-tragedy-mask face in pictures.
Celtic music. I miss Irish dance. My family went to see Riverdance tonight and it was great, of course, but I'm still not that great at just watching dance; I can't do it without overflowing with schemes to take it up again and maybe get back into competing and that last slip jig I was working on...etc. etc.
Dressing sharply.
Flamenco. Hottest thing I've ever seen.
My hips in a pencil skirt [I put myself on my own inspiration list? Oh my!]
Poppy's tumblr and her absolute astuteness in all matter sociological.
Sleeping pigeons on window ledges and fire escapes.
Sitting on a very steep hillside in a park overlooking my city, with my new headphones on, a little too cold, waiting to get my film from the one-hour photo place.
Pictures from floods.
Pretending to be dispassionate sometimes, just for kicks.
Reevaluating, on a case-by-case basis, the benefits of being inoffensive.
A red-tailed hawk flying right past my face.
The pencil skirt? I know exactly what you mean. It's the kind of thing that makes me dance around in change rooms.
ReplyDeleteSummermoon - Haha YES. A little swivelswivel "my, what a classy broad I am."
ReplyDeleteoooh nice list! I saw a hawk a few days ago, thought it was weird...usually they stay up in the mountains.. but it was nice to see it.
ReplyDeleteI am very humbled by your compliment, I often feel I write too passionately and erratically to make any sense.
ReplyDeleteI too am cleaning out my image files, 8,000 deleted and counting...
Poppy - Nope, you make much sense. And it was your mention of cleaning out image files that got me started. A good house-cleaning for the New Year...
