Snapshot: Listening, Watching, Reading, Wearing, Wanting

+ Kat

Listening: Portishead, Third (yay!); Madonna, Hard Candy (more yay!); No Age, Nouns (even more yay!); and to be honest, that's pretty much all I can handle these days.
Watching: GOSSIP GIRL. OMFG indeed!
Reading: I'm still reading Snow by Orhan Pamuk and it's pretty amazing.
Wearing: Daryl K tank top, J Brand skinny jeans, my trusty brown suede slouchy boots, the grey flannel schoolboy blazer I always wear. Dudes, I'm just trying to get through my week here.
Wanting: A real vacation, like for realz.

+ Liz

Listening: Madonna, Hard Candy; No Age, Nouns; Ver Sacrum, "Coco General Mdse."; a few tracks off Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson; a few tracks off the new Oasis record. And for some reason I keep listening to "New Age Girl" by Deadeye Dick, that reason probably being the line in the chorus that goes "She don't eat meat/But she sure likes the bone" (yay for stupid genius). And this doesn't really make sense to include here, but can I just tell you how WEIRD it is when you walk past Hooters and they're blasting "Possession" by Sarah McLachlan???
Watching: Back to the Beach (BEST MOVIE EVER); the trailer for Pineapple Express
Reading: Rolling Stone's riveting feature on The Hills; The List still
Wearing: I'm pretty much still into that get-up I broke down for yall the other day: superthin green-striped deep-V-necked hooded sweater over Billabong tank + blue jeans + Converse Glitter Skimmer Slip-Ons. The shoes are funny: wicked ridiculous, and wearing them makes adorable English girls strike up conversations with me at traffic lights and adorable skater boys stop me on Vine Street to ask if I like their pants. Kinda fun.
Wanting: a chocolate peanut butter Moonpillow mochi truffle (it's "creamy chocolate-peanut butter ganache enrobed in cocoa mochi" - hello, heaven)

+ Laura

Listening: The Small Faces, Ogden's Nut Gone Flake; Curt Boettcher, Chicken Little was Right; assorted awesomeness and/or total garbage via the sweetest (double entendre!) mp3 blog on the entire Internet, Bubblegum Soup
Watching: Last Year at Marienbad; I rented Walk Hard: the Dewey Cox Story because I wanted to watch the Beatles part. The Beatles part was really good. I am now officially participating in a fantasy relationship with Paul Rudd as John Lennon. Our chemistry is off the chain.
Reading: The Great Gatsby; the RFK issue of Vanity Fair: for the RFK, not the Vanity Fair. VF sucks, but RFK is another fantasy boyfriend of mine, though in actuality I wouldn't want to have much to do with the Kennedy Curse. The Laura Curse is tough enough as it is.
Wearing: Beatle Boots; little boys' brown corduroy blazer (it fits like a dream, except the one downside of wearing so much little boys' clothing is that the sleeves are always too short!); my super cool hearts & keys headscarf from Amerikan Beagle Mousefitters- it's the prettiest raspberry milkshake colour. It really brings out the green in my eyes, in case you're interested.
Wanting: I want my beloved "In Memory of John" pin back. I lost it today, somewhere between Future Shop and the organic food store. I scored it in an aggressive eBay duke out a year ago and have managed to incorporate it into my outfit pretty much every day ever since (I enforce a "two pieces of John Lennon flair MINIMUM" rule within the madcap landscape of my personal style, not counting my Lennon tattoo). It has a lot of sentimental value and it breaks my heart to think that it's dying in a gutter somewhere, although maybe some other Lennon lover will find it and have the score of his or her life. See? The Laura Curse is real.

You know you love me:
