Words of Wisdom... on doing what you love

Publishing books to make money is a little like hanging out in a singles bar if you want to get married. 

It might work, but there are way better ways to accomplish your goal. 

If you love writing or making music or blogging or any sort of performing art, then do it. 

Do it with everything you've got. 

Just don't plan on using it as a shortcut to making a living.

From Seth Godin

Vintage

Absolutely loving these vinatge photos they are posting over at The Sartorialist.

Send me to Bonnaroo.

Just a few of the acts I'm dying to see....

Extraordinary Machine

If there was a better way to go then it would find me

I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me

Be kind to me, or treat me mean

I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

-Fiona Apple, Extraordinary Machine

Just heard this song for the first time last week. Doesn't it sound like it belongs in a musical? Love it!

People online who look like my friends...

I'm hoping this is just one of many posts like this. I've been finding photos online recently (without even looking mind you) that look exactly like my friends.... Enjoy!

I'm starting not to mind rainy days... Thanks to these pretty pictures from Our Labor of Love
