Oh baby, your time is running out.

12:47 pm
La Roux - Bulletproof



Yesterday, I asked Jayne to drop me off the side of the bridge over the 110 near my apt, cause she really hates driving up my hill, and I wanted to take pics of the Queen Anne's Lace growing on the side of the freeway. I've been meaning to do it for a while, and I'll probably do so again later. They are growing all over LA, and I have a huge crush on them. I even looked up information on them, because I wanted to go cut some flowers and bring them home and make pretty and casual floral arrangements. But apparently, they are considered noxious weeds, and another name for them is Motherdie- a superstition about it is if you picked them and brought them home, your mother will die. I am fairly superstitious, but at the same time, not really-- but I'm not taking chances on this one. Sigh. They are so lovely and happy, though. Again, I identify with them: wildfower and noxious weed- so fitting.




 Then, on my walk up to my apt, I found this thing. Another weed/wildflower!
