Clockwork Orange...turquoise, red and more!

My vintage clock died last month. It was such a sweetheart of a clock too--yellowish, with a faux bois display, and the cutest set of constantly flipping numbers. (Sigh)...the sadness...

But then I discovered "Clockwork Universe" on Etsy. This Latvian gem of a shop features a slew of vintage Russian alarm clocks, watches and other time-keeping goodies. Yup, I'm pretty sure my "new" vintage clock is in here somewhere...

Biking!

A few months back, I sold my bike. She was a beauty. And I miss her.

However, my girlfriend has a bike--so lately, I've been "borrowing" hers. And every day this week, I've enjoyed my 2-mile bike ride to our work studio. I still feel like a giant idiot with the bike helmet on, but I realize it's for safety. Couldn't really do much without a brain, I suppose. Anyways, the daily rides have been very relaxing. Pedal left, pedal right, watch out for pedestrians, look out for that car door...it's been fun. And for at least a 10-15 minute stretch, I'm essentially stress-free!

I'm happy with this new regimen--and my girlfriend's bike is just dandy. Almost makes me forget about my old bike too...almost.

The meaning of green...

Not sure why, but for some reason I woke up thinking about green.  Maybe it was seeing all the trees and grass during the walk I took yesterday.  Or maybe it's the kelly green cruiser that rests in my living room.  Perhaps it was simply the Symbicort commercial (the one with that beautiful green and white classic truck) I saw last night, just before venturing off to lala land.  Whatever the reason, here's some green from the scene:
