‘Roid Week

November 5, 2009

Still Life (by pricklypearbloom)

It’s roid week! And I’m a little late to the party cause this week has been BUSY! But I’ve been taking more polaroids this fall than really every before, and I wanted to share a couple that I seem to never have uploaded to flickr. There are these leaves, of course.

And have I ever told you about my love affair with old volkswagons? When I was 16 I almost bought an old baby blue one as my first car. And now, thinking about it, I think it might have been too much trouble for my teenage life. But it would have been cool. Someday I’ll get me one of these vintage beauties. Or a Kaarmen Ghia. Love.

I’m printing and mailing calendars this morning before I head to work, and thinking about holiday gift tags. I can’t wait for the weekend. What are you doing today?

    geez
    my weekend seems so far away at this point.
    but, I look forward to it
    my son’s last football game of the season

    I have pretty much just figured out who’s who and now it is over.


  2. I adore that bug. I want a Microbus. We had one when I was a kid (and a bug before that) and I wish my parents hadn’t sold it. Later, we also had an 80’s VW van, and now I have a 2002 Eurovan. I just wish it were the MV with the table. Bad short term decision on my part. I’d love to find a Karmann Ghia for G when he’s old enough to drive – he’s a Ghia kind of guy.

    I have to run errands today, but if everything works out right, then I get to go see Pioneer Woman tonight, which will be fun.

    I love your calendars. Maybe I need to put people’s calendars in every room of the house this year. Hmm….

    Nice polaroids! My first car was a baby blue bug… a 1971 superbeetle. Cute as a… but not without it’s quirks. I always wanted a red one. Maybe someday. It will be a convertible.

    There’s no school tomorrow, so I’m taking the day off work to go see the Michael Jackson movie with my daughter. My husband’s birthday is this weekend, so we have lots of partying ahead.

    I had a red beetle and then a white one when I was in college. I loved them. The only thing I don’t miss was no heat and snow coming in from the vents.
