Searching for magic and a singin' that song. She skips and-a frolicks in a non-existent lawn, finding sheer enchantment in a cactus throng...
Tweet tweet, tweet tweeeeet...
Now what are those two conjuring up??? That's what I want to know? Are they planning a take-over? Oh wait, they already have taken over, silly me... Silly ridiculous human. I am only here to serve the bird masters ;)
Speaking of tweets, I plunged. I am officially on Twitter. For some reason I don't come up in a twitter search according to a twitter glitch. But you can find me at http://twitter.com/afancifultwist - We'll see how that goes ;)
Not like I need any more help avoiding my duties. What were they again?
Serving tiny tea???
Playing? Breaking cascarones inside the house?
This is the epitome of avoiding adult duties, which I would rather forget about in total ;) I would rather be doing this...
Can I just tell you, these coral roses are so bright, they almost hurt your eyes. These are non-altered shades of coral. A coral rose bush, as big as a tree, is keeping me perfect delicious company...
I feel rose greedy. Like the Queen of Hearts. Only I don't have anyone, like elves, painting these for me by night. ;)
Sooo many roses. The other huge rose bush with the pink frosting flowers, gives off these dense beyond commercial quality roses that blow my mind. Both smell so rose strong, it is unreal. Positively unreal. (But you already knew that, because I am getting annoying with this subject ;)
But, how can you not swoon over free buckets of roses? I just don't know...
Oh and, did I mention they dry really stunning too?
Anyhow... I am almost ready to package up my deadline and ship it off today, after which I will begin finishing up bunches of little guys for a shop update. Yippeee!
On a random note... You know, in that movie Genghis Blues, there was a lovely lovely boy named, Lemon De George. And I screamed, "hey, he is one of my elves!!" Isn't his name elfin perfect??? He was a charmer...
So let's see, what other randomness have I gotten myself into? Welllll, day before yesterday, I started seeing things, very regularly, out of the corner of my eye. Now, this happens often, but not as often as it has in the last 48 hours.
It was really freaking me out. So, when my friend called while I was painting day before yesterday, and invited me over for dinner, I was inclined to say not today. But between seeing things, and being loopy from isolation, I obliged. I ended up staying for hours, chatting with her parents and siblings about everything under the sun. Her mom tried on my shoes, and we all giggled like teenagers...
I think the conversation got funny when I talked about feeling compelled to invite Mickey Rourke to stay with me and Mister Lovee. I want to bake him cakes and give him hugs, and serve him lemonade, and give him more hugs... Don't you think that might make him happy? He could sleep in the gypsy garden? I can see it now... Hey Mickey, come on over, come on... I mean, what more could he need but a little bit of a fanciful twist in his life?
My sister says I love old weird guys. HAha! She is especially disturbed by my Bryan Ferry love. But why I ask? Why? I'd bake him some desserts too if he came over and sang Is your love strong enough... That's just what a girl needs.
But I veer into madness there.
After I returned home from dinner, it was late and I was tired, and I continued to see things. Do you see her too? On the left there? Tell me you do... (late night photo)
Goodness my eyeball looks huge.
Well, that is enough silliness to fill your silly cup for one day, don't you think?
I best be off. I'd love to stay and play all day, alas, some grown-up duties just can't be avoided...

ps: You know I looooove Bat for Lashes. Well, their new cd is wonderful goodness (Two Suns), I bought all the songs on Itunes. I am listening to it on repeat!! I can't choose a fave, they are all good, Pearl's Dream, Daniel, oh on and on, all good. I felt the same way about the Fur and Gold album. Just wonderful! I watched Rothko's Rooms last weekend. I just love Mark Rothko. I live with a wall size giclee of his in my city house. LOVE HIM!
Okay, Off I go...
pss: Mister Lovee just told me Bryan Ferry was coming to visit his friend in August, and I was going to meet him! I flipped. Then he said "Just kidding hee hee snort snort." Ya real funny Mistah!
