The Waves.



Sorrows Grown Fruitful. Rustic Buffalo Teeth Oversized Earrings.Once again, got da pims. Seems like every dang month! So that accounts for why the last 3 days I've been making halloween cards and spending all night up reading Anathem by Neil Stephenson. Which by the way is insanely good and might have to go into my select list of books that have rocked my reality. Also, right now I would kill for a hot fudge brownie sundae....

So my sister is a biology teacher, among other things, and if her children complain about, say, mosquitoes or rain, she always explains that "we need the rain/ mosquitoes/ etc." and goes on to explain why.

It's very cute because her 5 and 3 year olds are growing up very environmentally aware- even if their favorite activity is frog hunting. They always release them after one night. I like to think they are slowing producing the most traumatized population of frogs any lake has ever seen.

Angels of Little Use.
Anyways, the other weekend my folks went out to Wisconsin to visit. My dad- who they call "Belo"for abuelo (grandpa)- was in the kayak with Marcela, the little blond terror. 



There were loads of boats out that day and Dad and Marcela were just bobbing up and down like crazy from all the wakes. So Dad, ever the professor, goes, "Do you know why there's all these waves, Marcela?" She looks at him very seriously. "Belo," she says, "we need the waves!"

Marcela is adorable!!!! What wonderful snippets of stories between your beautiful jewelry. Enki has such beautiful elements and drape.

Generally, first comments from a long-time lurker should be some sort of praise for the created theengs, but what I really felt compelled to say was "I refuse to believe that we need the mosquitoes!"

Also, of course, I'm as usual awed and impressed by the way you continue to be able to make earrings interesting. You inspire me.
