Yah, so I thought I have a bunch of stuff to say, but I guess I don't.
I came across this painting by a local artist named Melinda Josie in an article. I really like it.

I think I like it 'cuz:
a) We've all felt the way that poor cat looks;
b) But the toy reminds me that there's always comfort when you need it;
c) I like red coats;
d) I like leggings too;
e) I like her Mary Jane shoes; and
f) The cat reminds me a bit the ever fantastic Rilo, who was posing for my pal Mathew again the other night. I can never get good pictures of her.

Actually, now I'm seeing that I could buy a silkscreen print of it. I'm going to email the artist post-haste I think. There was this other painting a saw in Starbucks (of all places) the other day that I really liked. It looked totally abstract, but when you looked at it closely, you could see that beneath the paint, there was a collage of a crowd at a concert. Really perfect for me, but sadly out of my price range.
Anyway, happy weekend everyone! I plan to catch up on sleep, visit with friends, see Neko Case (for the first time ever, I'm so excited), and maybe finally go buy myself a bike. Oh, and then maybe bike rides!

Okay, the first picture, kinda creepy. But that second one, hilarious.
I love the picture of Rilo - and I think the painting is very nice.
That concert one would have been cool too - maybe when I win the lottery, i'll buy you that too!
Good luck finding your bike, it will be a good weekend to go for a bike ride!
I like the sounds of that crowd painting.
Yea for biking, and >10 degree weather!
I cannot lie, I am not a cat person at all! Oh well we can't have everything in common.
Oh man, I want a Rilo badge. :-)

Rilo is a doll! And I love that painting - I'm pretty sure someone kidnapped your cat and had her pose for them.
