Blue Monday

It's Monday. The gods in all of their infinite wisdom have decided to bless me with a filthy house, no food in the fridge, and a computer in revolt. Also we leave for Hawaii in two days. The gods be crazy, yo. I may have to take matters into my own hands. white living room

I'm working on my serenity now pose. It looks a little something like Mike Myers' fantasy sequences in Wayne's World, but maybe a little more like this room.

If this is back to school day for you or your little person, then you need a steaming dose of serenity even more than me. Let's hold hands and sing kumbaya and try to survive this day, friends. Or we could just take this post to its logical conclusion.

Happy Monday. Try not to die.

Vincent Leroux

There is nothing sweeter than an interesting room seen through the eyes of a fantastic photographer. Ok, perhaps world peace, equal rights, and true love might give a pretty picture a run for its money -- but not much else. So it is with much whiz bang shazam that I present the work of Vincent Leroux, whose photographs strike a perfect balance between edgy and sophisticated, all seen through the glory of natural and ambient light. Overdone photography is the devil's work. Thanks the lords of the internets for showering us with some good stuff.

Later, y'alluns. Gotta go run errands before it gets face meltingly hot.
