Further proof that ?normal' is overrated

From The Metamorph, 1 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I would like to thank the members of the school board of?Granite City?High School for banning William Carruba from wearing a kilt to his prom?because it’s “not normal.” Nevermind that such an outfit is entirely normal in another First World Country, but I digress. While you’re at it, please ensure that students of Middle Eastern descent do not wear saris, and that students of African descent do not wear tribal elements or motifs. In fact, why not have all students attend... Read more

Reenforcing the notion that beauty is pain

From The Metamorph, 2 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I am really loving this style of desk right now, at least, in pictures: I’ve not been out furniture shopping so I haven’t been able to sit down at this kind of desk, but I feel like I would constantly have bruises on my legs from smacking my shins or knees?against that bar running across the bottom, joining the legs from each side together. But perhaps I should be looking at that bar as a built in footrest. ?2012 The Metamorph. All Rights Reserved. No republishing without... Read more

I'm just here to send you somewhere else.

Miss Zoot just wrote a fantastic post that I think every blogger, popular or not, needs to go read right now. Why do I care' Because I really like you and I want you to make a comment directly to me. I'm not sure if you think about it this way, which is why I wanted you to know that your readers do. Maybe we've commented on your blog (Not me, because I never comment anywhere) or maybe we've emailed you. Maybe we've sent you a tweet or ?Liked' something of yours on Facebook. Either way ? we...

Could be ?The One'

From The Metamorph, 4 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

It’s another kitchen post. Completely unrelated to any holiday celebrations or resolutions or retrospectives or anything else. Except, I’ve written a few times about kitchens and inspiration a few times here. So. There’s that. Anyway, I picked up a fat issue of Dream Kitchens and Baths Magazine and in an article titled “Rustic Elegance,” they featured this kitchen from Konstant Architecture: I wish there were more images online but I could only find this one....

The Newest One

I’ve developed a mad obsession for this light fixture, the potential home being above my future dining room table: I am SO madly obsessed with this light fixture that I mistakenly described it to El Fiance as a shiny, brassy gold color when it is, in fact, a more?matte,?old silver. I have The?Awesome today. Anyway…on one hand it surprises me that I love this so much because it doesn’t really seem to fit into my current beach?cottage + farm house + French Country –... Read more

That's ?MS. Internet Writer' to you.

From The Metamorph, 8 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

A message from my spam comments: “Play informative for me, Mr. internet writer.” I don’t know, it really amused me. **** One thing I have wanted to be for a long time is more arts-and-craftsy. The problem is I demand INSTANT GRATIFICATION and don’t generally have the patience to sit down and see a project through to the finish. Case in point: the baby blanket I started to crochet while I was still pregnant with my son. My son is now in college and the baby blanket never... Read more

Feel the silence

From The Metamorph, 8 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Other than the occasional whine from the dog – I’m not sure, but I think he’s doing it to let me know he wants to go outside looking for the fluffy gray Persian-ish type cat that hangs around so he can chase something – it’s pretty darn quiet around here right now. El Fiance (yes, still) is out with some friends; I was invited and encouraged to go along but I’m too tired today, should’ve done yesterday.  My son’s away at his University, although... Read more

Beaches

From The Metamorph, 9 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I’m torn between loving and hating extremely disliking other people who are living my dream. I’ve recently added A Beach Cottage to my Google Reader after discovering her stack of suitcases used as a nightstand on Pinterest. When I do get time to sit down and read, her posts are usually a tiny mental vacation for me. Today, Sarah posted this picture: “Just a quickie,” she says. Like, you know, “Oh, I just stepped off my back porch a second ago and this is what I... Read more

Hi there!

From The Metamorph, 11 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

I’ve written the opening sentence of this post a few different ways, apologizing to myself and whoever may still be reading about the lack of updates. Eh. Sometimes you just have to live life instead of obsessing over when it’s going to get in the blog. Not that I have much of a life, although a lot of things are happening…they feel more like they’re happening around me than to me, but I’m sitting here feeling a little foggy and sleep deprived at the moment for no...

Destin 2011

So I could be a little obsessed. I’m trying to figure out whether my next trip to the beach is going to happen before or after my trip to my latest obsession. France. (Clicking the pic will make it way bigger.) ©2011 The Metamorph. All Rights Reserved. No republishing without permission.. Read more
