Snow Day

This morning I set out at about 3:30 am to start shoveling. It's been dumping here since yesterday. And, though I stayed outside until about 6:30, I still couldn't get to work. It's serious enough that they actually just sent a bulldozer out to plow my road with a sander following it. Luckily, work told me to take the day off. A true snow day.

But, before I get to work hacking away at skateboards, I thought I'd share with you a few awesome things that recently caught my attention. A little too cool not to share.

MICROMACHINA by Scott Bain uses real taxidermy beetles and found objects to create some of the most fascinating art I've seen in a long time. Or maybe it's just that I have a thing for bugs.

Then, there's Hello Again Monsters which I learned about through Kill Taupe (one of my favorite artists). She also has an Etsy shop. Her vinyl monsters are insane and as a fan of all things monster and plush, they have been added to my "I need this" list. I also feel that it's important to note that you can play Pacman on her website, which nearly prevented the completion of this blog post.

I must now leave you to oooo and ahhhh before I am sucked back in again by the timelessly addicting Pacman.

Peace out,
