Insomnia

July 21, 2005

Heirloom
Heirloom tomatoes are now in season – they are divine!  Taken in Venice, CA July 21, 2005.

Once again, I thought I would be able to fall asleep at a decent hour, but here I am wide awake way past my normal bedtime.  So I’m camped out in my living room with my laptop and a Katherine Hepburn movie, getting ready to make some tea, to wait it out and see when I get sleepy.

If you happen to be reading this because you are also suffering from insomnia, here are few goodies to check out:

The PInk Coyote:  The new online journal of a name that is familiar to you if you are a regular reader of my journal, Pixie Campbell.  This woman is wise, creative and hysterically funny.  I am so excited to follow her daily musings.

A Moth Ride Through Tokyo:  When I was in Tokyo last week, I saw a huge, black moth fluttering around the middle of the city.  I was trying to learn what it was, so I googled "moth + Tokyo" and this article was the first link that came up.  The next time I go to Tokyo I am going to rent a bicycle…and follow the light.

Threadbared:  These women are so bad…and so damn funny I can’t believe it.

Knock Knock:  Unique stationery items that are totally hilarious.  A dear waitress friend of mine actually met the owners & designers where she works and said they were totally cool.  I can’t stand it when I hear that an artist/artists I admire are jerks.  I like hearing that they’re nice.  It makes me want to buy more of their stuff.  Because who wants to support jerks, anyway?

Sweet dreams…hopefully mine will come sooner rather than later tonight.
