This week's discovery: finding out that the stuff I love to look at and sometimes buy in that overpriced import store is called kawaii. I heart it, especially when it involves deer. That is all. As far as that item goes, anyway.

And via Dioramarama, I found some new tote-ish things to fill my blossoming need for bags for library books, groceries, lunch, etc. I love a couple of totes right now, but I want more! And I want them all to be different. This is typical, I love so many different styles of art and I enjoy new visual experiences so much that the only thing that will make me happy (as far as tote bags go) is a wide array of the suckers in different styles and colors. Plus it makes for a colorful grocery shopping experience. I prefer DIY bags from the thousands of indie shops out there, but they can be a little pricey. (Understandably! I'm not bitching about people charging what their stuff is worth, just for the record.)

I bought a few tiny trinkets today to satisfy my end-of-month shopping urge, since I can't buy anything major for the rest of the month: A zine grab bag from Sweet Candy Distro and a couple of small and cute things from day-lab, a new find which I can't believe I didn't know about before (two words: Little Boots).
