see? art is everywhere! :) i love this and yet...if someone handed me a latte that looked like this, i don't know if i would be able to drink it. :/

mom and i watched 'howl's moving castle' at thanksgiving. yes, it came out, what 8000 years ago, but i just now got around to renting it and falling in love with it. oh well. it's funny. the older i've grown, the more i see my mom for who she really is--she has become such a kindred spirit. i'm constantly inspired by her perspective on life and how honest she is with who she is. she's not the kind of person to put up a front or act one way around some people and another way around others. she's completely and wholy herself. i love it.
