I think I may delete this

So I just had a huge discussion with my mom about Facebook & Twitter. 
That is surreal to me. Not the fact that she has one (because lets face it - every adult is trying to hop on the new-age bandwagon) but because these websites, mainly, are for the "-i-have-had-a-website-since-buddypic-was-the-only-site-around" youth. I am one of them. I had a livejournal since i was in middle school, and yes, once had a buddypic (like most of my now un-admitting friends once did). 
Sorry to keep harping on this whole internet craze, but its something the whole world seems to be fixated one right now. 
I never was a part of a site because it was "cool" or it was a "trend". I jumped on long before it - don't worry I am not the type that brags about being one of the "first" users. I am just expressing my frustration with the many that deem themselves savvy by having one, just for the sake of having one. 
I realize I am going nowhere with this because I have had one too many glasses of Shiraz tonight. 
I am going back to my wine, my film Water Lilles (a French film, check it out!), and my dark chocolate covered raisins. 

G'night.

SAY YES! TO POTT.



JULIA POTT is a 23-year-old graduate who has captivated the essence of innocence and enabled it to be carried over into our adulthood without making us feel immature.
Her illustrations of cutesie animals and bizarro people have a playful vibe to them. Just recently I discovered her in my latest issue of NYLON MAGAZINE where they shared her temporary tattoos of unicorns, cats and dogs. Just looking at the little photograph of the tattoos instantly captivated me. I have been googleing her for the past 72 hours only to find her creativity gets more and more intriguing and lovable. 
I am even thinking of getting a tattoo of one of her sketches.

Go Julia go!
