A lot like nothing you've ever seen before

They cut down a tree outside my front door/window (it's all made of glass). Neglected to warn me. Or Sebastian. What. A. Fright.
He wouldn't leave my room for about four hours, he was that scared.
Chicken.

You're supposed to take a photo of each of the things on the list. Like a photo diary, or something like it.

1. A girl.
This girl, Emma, is one of my best friends. We did this road trip to the mountains with copious amounts of fur and the intention to take photos and op-shop until we died. We didn't die. We did, however, go onto an old mans property to take photos outside a house that looked like it should have keeled over many, many years ago. That's a leather hat and a vintage wedding dress. I adore her.


2. My CD collection.
As you can see, it's quite a collection. (Side note, I like post-its and colour coding. Just for future reference). I do listen to more music than this. I promise.


3. A friend.
This here is Lord Sebastian Felix Charles Montgomery Flyte. He is my friend. That lizard was his friend. Until Seb ate his tail. Kind of a friendship-killer, don't you think?
I put the lizard outside and restrained Seb until he got away safe. Friends don't let friends eat lizards.


4. Something funny.
I'm telling you now, and I'll tell you again and again, this here is the funniest book I have ever read. It's one of those books that if you're one to frown upon laughing in public places at what seems to be nothing to those around you (which I am not), you should only read this at home. Because you will burst into laughter, and people may not understand why. But you will. And that's the important thing. Most of the time.


5. Something that makes me happy.
Yes, more books. Old books in particular. I collect them. It's kind of an obsession. The large majority of these are 19th century editions (Don't be decieved now, my dears. The 19th Century is the 1800's). Actually, only three here are 20th century, the youngest being 1946, I believe.
You know when you've had a bad day and theres that one thing that always makes you feel better?
Mines coffee and looking over my books.


6. The next meal I eat.
Will be something out of this mug. Because Star Wars makes everything taste better. (And I think there's a high population of tin soup around these parts).


7. A self-portrait.
why, yes, that is a lamp-shade.


8. My favorite pair of shoes.
I couldn't decide. I don't really have many shoes. But I do love the snakeskin ones. They have a brilliant story behind them.


9. My wheels.
Since Betty (My trusty, yet oh-so-old Hyundai Excel which you had to wind down the windows to get out of) died, I've walked everywhere. Or caught buses. But I don't own the buses. In hindsight I could have made it out like I did, or at least took a photo of my bus-ticket, but this seemed like the better idea at the time (Still does, actually). Usually these feet have shoes on them when they travel me places.


10. The view form my window.
Because I ony have three official windows, and they don't actually have a great view, this is from my front glass sliding door. Heckers, isn't it?

And there you go, no more soup.
I liked it so much I'm resolving to do occasional ones on different things. When my brain starts working again.

Cheerios, why don't you try them?
