Life Lately

I've been doing a bit of work to my room and so far I've gotten 2 walls painted, my desk moved to the corner I want it in, and the first of my movie shelves put up!  It's impossible to tell what color I've chosen for my walls in these photos, after editing them for Instagram, but they're a really pretty eggshell blue.  I'll post real photos once everything is complete!

I'm going to have to start digging out all of my movie related toys and such to help decorate the edges of these shelves!  I love my vintage little ET toy :)  I had no idea how many movies I'd be able to set up on these shelves, but once I got these up it kinda put it into perspective for me.  I've got them all stored in about 6 crates and this was only one and a half crates worth!  Once I paint one of the empty walls I'm going to line the center with these shelves, but double the length.  I can't wait to get everything put up!  I've finally gotten my record player out and can't wait to paint this little table I've got it on.  I'm not sure what color I'm going to go with yet, but it's starting to feel like me.  This Wildewoman record by Lucius has become one of my favorites.  If you haven't heard them before, give them a listen!
If I had known a year ago that Monty Python would be doing a live performance in London, I would have seriously saved all the money I could to buy tickets and fly out there to see the show.  Watching it live from a local theater was the next best thing though, and it was such a great show!  It was sad knowing it was their last performance as a group...like saying goodbye, but I'm so happy I was able to be part of the experience!

What have you been up to lately?

    1. I know it's not the same, but I think they'll be re-airing the Monty Python Live show again in theaters!

  2. Oh, this makes me so impatient to start decorating! It looks great!

    I've always wanted to go see Monty Python live - there used to be really great group in my area that would do it, but I only got the chance to see them do Rocky Horror before the local theater shut down. :(

    1. It was soooo great! There were a few bits that I had never seen before because I haven't seen The Flying Circus in it's entirety, but I laughed so hard throughout the whole thing. I love those guys!
