Carnivals are fun

So, we visited a parking lot carnival, for those of you who know not of this phenomenon, a traveling carnival sets up in a large parking lot, taa da! And I loved taking photographs from the top of the Paratrouper ride! sooo i found this website and it transformed my image into an old-time photo! how fun! Warning though, on the public album of this website are many unsuitable photos for youngsters or nuns.

Throwing Caution to the wind...

Another silly photograph in my attempt to find random things on the street. While I was taking this photo, I got stopped by some junkies trying to get money "for the bus" ahhh, the city! This was taken in University City, somewhere near Drexel...

A Shop i heart...

ThePaperAbbey is an amazing person to deal with! She sells scarves, original artwork, and AWESOME notecards!
Take a look into her Etsy shop, here is a preview...



This is way too many postings for one day.

I want this.

This Bathing Suit is gorgeous... but there are so many cute ones out there! I just cannot decide!




These are available from FablesByBarrie, MissBrache, and LAdramaQueen on Etsy.com.

What are you reading now?

...I am reading "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen. I also tend to start multiple books at once, so in addition to that, "Haunted" by Chuck Palahniuk. But I haven't had much time to read lately, maybe it's because YOU need a Bookmark.

More random sidewalk findings...

so here is yet another photo of one of the many random things i have found on the sidewalk... and an example of my killer photo editing skills :)
This was found on 15th street. some poor dog lost its toy, or else a really random location for a game of tennis?
