Stealing Thongs, Hiding Cats

I am SO bored of being cramped up in my bedroom!


When I first taking photos in panties, I swore I'd never appear in my bedroom. Overdone, I thought! I loved the appear of tearing off my clothes on the patio...

I was going to proffer an image here as example, but cannot. My hard drive full of photos is in the living room. 


Which lead me to conclude...


As stated many a time, I live in a sometimes lovely, usually messy live/work space/gallery/venue. A few of my roommates do not approve of my lurid endeavors.




Thankfully, these roommates moved out!


Or...were supposed to move out.


Yesterday.




Instead, they are still here. Prowling around. Cramping my style!


I intended on taking some over-due photos in their supposed to be abandoned rooms. In fact, just yesterday I took a romp through one of these assumed abandoned bedrooms and found a cute cotton thong!


I snatched it right up!


Apparently, it had not been abandoned and I received a stern lecture. The phrase, "who are you?" was included.


Um...the room was occupied my a male. Who, to the best of my knowledge, does not wear a thong. And typically leaves a trail of trash (and tears) in his wake. 


MOVING ON...




The worse of the soon-to-be-former roommates is also, sadly, owner of the best of the house cats. This little girl has appeared with me in such popular photos as:




You can't get a close look at her there...which is a good thing! Because I've been secretly hiding her in my laundry and hoping she's left behind! But my ex-roommates are stomping around the living room and little Viola is not in my room. She's sure to be taken! No thong. No cat.




That's a satin-y bikini in the photo from my personal collection ("personal collection" should be taken to mean, "I own the matching bra and thus, am keeping the panties!")

I do have another cat, however!




I was mildly annoyed at my paramour this morning (the man, not the cat). Admittedly, not for anything he'd actually done but for his behavior in a dream.


I'm (half) kidding.


As usual, I drank too much coffee and wondered what my "talking-to-cute-animals" voice sounds like on video:





Being stuck in my room, I inevitably ended up doing a little online window-shopping (I've oft found myself trying to think of a good portmanteau for surfing online stores without planning on buying anything - since it literally is "window-shopping"). And I came across this necklace in my friend Lisa's Etsy store, Archives Vintage.




For a second, I considered buying it - but remembered my collection of tiny animals and realized I could make it myself! 




 I was all excited to find a drill and get to work...but heard my roommates prowling...




And hid in my room. I don't want to be confronted with thong-gate 2011 a second time.




...which was extra lame because I was hungry! Luckily, I made a grilled cheese earlier. It was cold. I was bored.




Pretend the salt is snow and you have a lovely vignette.

Kammi has a Bad Day

Well, I woke up in a perfectly good mood and everything's been downhill from there. Did you ever have one of those days when you just felt curling up in bed and going back to sleep?

 (I'm embarrassed to admit I don't know if this is a Lichtenstein or not!)

Aside from the usual roommate troubles (one of them treats me like a teenager despite the enormous age gap, another treats me like a parent who will pick up after him), I went to a meeting with my art collective and all of my ideas were basically tossed out the window. And the were great ideas!


And the whole time I was starving! Luckily, I had enough money on my Link card (yes, I get food stamps - I'm not ashamed) to get a few food items - I'm saving up for a big exhibition this Saturday. I really hate complaining about being poor, but the whole grocery-shopping experience was sort of a downer. I live in a neighborhood with a lot of um...young, urban professionals and it's depressing to overhear conversations about goat cheese when you're putting back a 79 cent can of beans! 


And when I got home, all excited to hang out with my friend, Mike, he not only cancelled, but got pissed off and hung up on me! I had to stop myself from crying!

 (in case you hadn't guessed, I'm picking out my "sad-face" photos)

On the upside, my new computer (a graduation present) will be arriving on Friday! And I'm really excited for the exhibition! I'm designing the fliers myself and working on a video project for it - not to mention, doing all the catering! Does any of this look mouth-watering...?



 That's jalapeno-cheddar cornbread, lemon cream tarts and succotash! Ask me for the recipes!

I guess it's not all bad! I'm sure I'll wake up in the morning, good as new! Keep your fingers crossed!
