so what are you trying to tell us?



i may not be from an ivy league school but i know that's a run on sentence!!

Twin love


So my sister came to visit yesterday. We basically consumed every food imaginable in a 24 hour period. Sushi, hot chocolate, red mango, calamari, roast beef, crab cakes, chai tea lattes, five guys burgers, fries, and soda. One word: phat. See picture above and our permanently food-caked mouths.

Also, my sis commuted two hours with her own comforter so that she didn't have to share my blankets. We certainly are the most tender of twins.

Le Roadtrip!



S & A are driving home to their Podunk villages together today for Turkey Ingestion!
Wahoo!


*DISCLAIMER: This is NOT S&A in this picture, and A's town isn't really podunk. S's town is though. I would know.
Winky face emoticon.

For All Your Lies You're Still Very Loveable

I love Bon Iver so hard. His songs are so beautiful. I came across this a capella video of "For Emma" -- I guess it was spontaneously sung in a Paris hallway right before a show. I can't stop watching it. The best is at 1:35 when the guy comes in w/ "go find another lover"...



Bon Iver means "good winter" from the French "bon hiver." I read that he spent 3 months in solitude during the winter in a cabin in Wisconsin, not planning to make music or write an album or anything, but left with For Emma, Forever Ago , which is just so... lovely.

Here's another good one, Skinny Love: (no video)
