GIBBONS!

I was watching the news tonight when a particular news item struck a chord...a chord about the gibbons!

In my Saddleback anthropology class a couple of years ago we went on an extra credit field trip to the gibbons conservation center up in santa clarita. Once i saw those cute endangered gibbons humping their cages, i knew i was a goner. Since then, I have discovered that you can volunteer to live at the dorms at the Gibbons center (minimum 1 month and you cant leave) and help take care of the gibbons. as soon as i am done with my last semester (fall) that is exactly what i intend on doing. im planning my steez to be jane goodall meets eva gabor in green acres. goodbye city life!


anyway, they are developing new housing projects in santa clarita dangerously close the once isolated gibbons center. the noise is scaring the gibbons and there is a chance they might catch valley fever from the construction. alan (the gibbon man/master/myth) wants to move the center up to ventura where they will have a lot more room and isolation.

they need money to move the gibbons! just $10 buys enough vitamins for one gibbon for one month. imagine a gibbon eating a vitamin that you bought it...adorable!

have a heart, put down your cheeseburgers and throw some pocket change to our primate friends.

in other news, i haven't blogged in quite some time. i was trying to make it a regular thing, but no dice. i'm a busy lady.

i bought a new bathing suit: isn't it gorgeous? i want to carry a black parasol and then drown myself in the ocean. Oh! and I bought this Betsey Johnson one on the right too. i think everyone is going to call me granny with that kind of high waist but i can take the criticism. assholes.









I'm also in a watching frenzy on ebay.

I want this vintage tux jacket so i can put a sneer on my face, howl, and try to look like david johansen. the right moves with this jacket? dangerous

so this luella jacket is totally gauche and im totally in love with it.

karen walker bloomers. adorable! seriously no one is going to want to hang out with me once i throw these babies on. they will feel infinitely threatened by my nonthreatening-adorableness. plus, i only have a couple more years of wearing this kind of stuff. then it just wont be cute anymore. more sad than anything. theyll say, 'look at the poor old crow trying to recapture her youth. sucker.'

and finally, an ivory telephone purse. i dont know why i love these things so much but i have several and im not a big believer in singular things. singular telephone purses, singular bathing suits...

oh.. i also want this too.

it's axl's tattoo. i kind of want to put it on one of my leather jackets.. but im slightly apprehensive. hmm.

wish me luck!
