I was thinking about it today, and how I'd love to have the courage to move to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere and just exist. So I did some research. Creeped on some websites, and so many flickr accounts that my brain went fuzzy. Here are two of my favorite photos:<br /><a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2128/2157726812_fc382d0882.jpg?v=0"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2128/2157726812_fc382d0882.jpg?v=0" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />By <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/justinparr/2157726812/">Justin Parr.</a><br /><a href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/27/53432553_8140e782a9.jpg?v=0"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/27/53432553_8140e782a9.jpg?v=0" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />By <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/katastrophik/53432553/">katastrophik.</a><br /><br />Marfa is located in the high destert of Western Texas. It's about 200 miles from El Paso, 470 miles from Dallas, and 600 miles from Houston. Ouch.<br />Giant (with Elizabeth Taylor, James Dean, and Rock Hudson) was filmed there in the 1950s. And more recently, There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men. It's a huge art community, well known for it's galleries and soon, it's annual film festival! <br />I'm pretty bummed that I only found out about the film festival today. The very first film festival is being held May 1-5. Tickets are only $200 for a 5 day pass, and they've a limited availability-- only 200 are being sold! Perhaps next year. My only dilemma is convincing Joshua who 1) doesn't like to sweat, and 2) hates Texas, to be my travel buddy.<br />And when I do visit, I only want to stay at the <a href="http://thunderbirdmarfa.com/">Thunderbird Motel</a>. The decor is minimal and clean. The pool is heavenly. And they have a special "Mystery Lights" tour, complete with glow in the dark t-shirts and a coffee mug. <br /><br />And how can I forget? The home that inspired this post!<br /><a href="http://www.unitedartistsltd.com/images/ual.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://www.unitedartistsltd.com/images/ual.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />-Ashleyjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-26330553826737278632008-04-01T10:25:00.000-07:002008-04-01T10:32:14.049-07:00movingI finally got a new apartment, away from the drama and all my own. I'm extremely excited to be moving out on my own again, and even more excited to have Ashley with me for the summer.<br /><br />I am not, however, excited to move. I've realized that I own a lot of big things for a 22 year old male, the most daunting of which being my big ass tv, heavy couch, and 2 refrigerators. Dwelling on this subject for a while, I came to the conclusion that I need to befriend a strongman competitor. <br /><br />Think about how much easier life would be if I could have a friend who would carry both of my fridges at the same time.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R_Jxavl-piI/AAAAAAAAAB0/BSE7sVJPT1M/s1600-h/1c8eee3c7f38527232a56a4ff4752bc9.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R_Jxavl-piI/AAAAAAAAAB0/BSE7sVJPT1M/s200/1c8eee3c7f38527232a56a4ff4752bc9.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184330825323161122" /></a><br /><br />I wonder if he can take it up to the 3rd floor though....<br /><br /><br /><br />I'll update later with photos of the new place.

Basically, I want to live in a Daft Punk video. Or better yet, this video from Kap10Kurt.<br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xuFHu1csfP0&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xuFHu1csfP0&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />The synopsis of the video reads, "<span><span style="font-size:85%;">In a world full of danger, where music is banned by an evil militia, Kap10Kurt, an easy-going hero, helped by his sexy mate Leah, will blow up this Machiavellian conspiracy</span>." Easy-going heroes? Sexy sidekicks? Overthrowing a "Machiavellian conspiracy?" I'm so in.<br /><br />In addition to Kap10Kurt's video, I'm especially fond of the new Justice video for DVNO. So Me, of Ed Banger "fame," is responsible for the visual orgasm. Maybe I'm going a little too far. It's pretty awesome though.<br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/e_XzCR2MbrU&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/e_XzCR2MbrU&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />Continuing on, Bobby over at <a href="http://kitsunenoir.com/blog/dwp/">Kitsune Noir</a> has started a pretty fantastic project, asking his favorite artists and designers to contribute a wallpaper. My favorite, by far, is the one by Dustin Hostetler of UPSO. I highly suggest you all check it out, as new wallpapers are posted every Wednesday morning. <br /><br />And what would <span style="font-style: italic;">robot chic </span>be without fashion. My darling, <a href="http://overthestars.net/">Julez</a> and I have been obsessing over robot sunglasses. You know what I'm talking about. The pre-venetian blinds Kanye glasses. I found my pair at Target for $18. I seriously feel complete with them in my life now. <br /><br />Coming soon... I'll upload a mix for you lovelies. Look out for Treasure Fingers, Justice (of course), a ScenarioRock remix by Sebastian, Danger, and maybe some Earth, Wind, and Fire if you play your cards right.<br /><br /><br />-Ashley<br /><br />PSA: While robots are awesome, robo-tripping is not. Put down the 'tussin. You're not Tara Reid (unless you are, in fact, Tara Reid. Then by all means, keep up the good work.).<br /><br /></span>josh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-47042461339827442752008-02-12T10:15:00.000-08:002008-02-12T10:48:57.769-08:00New York, I love you...It's been a while since an update, but in our defense, Josh and I both go to school and work full time. Blogging has been the furthest thing from our minds lately. However, we cannot pass up the opportunity to jump around and shout into the internetz: WE'RE GOING TO NEW YORK TOMORROW!!! <br />We'll be staying with my bff, Asta, at her amazing apartment in Brooklyn with its huge windows, vaulted ceilings, and probably the biggest kitchen in all of New York City (it's still pretty small, though). <br />While in New York, we plan to be huge tourists and visit as many museums and eat as many Magnolia Cupcakes as one can in 4 short days. I'm especially excited for the <a href="http://www.newmuseum.org">New Museum</a> in the Bowery. I've been buzzing about to just about anyone who'll listen. Gorgeous architecture, brilliant new artists, and only a $6 admission fee for students-- what more could you ask for?<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.worldarchitecturenews.com/project/uploaded_files/1487_Museum%20385.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://www.worldarchitecturenews.com/project/uploaded_files/1487_Museum%20385.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />One exhibit that I'm particularly interested in, and I think Josh will be too, is Young Hae Chang Heavy Industries "Black On White, Gray Ascending." The website describes it as "<span style="font-style:italic;">Using Flash animation techniques, they create fast-moving, text-based artworks that are synchronized with original scores. Using a seemingly simple format—texts on monochromatic backgrounds—YHCHI weaves complex and evocative narratives. Invoking the genre of film noir, and the hard-boiled literary styles of Raymond Chandler and Phillip K. Dick, YHCHI’s imaginative, witty and often politically pointed narratives offer layered and compelling stories in which identities are assumed and discarded, and ideologies of all persuasions are held up and questioned.</span>"<br /><br /><br />This post has been exceedingly text heavy, so I'll just shut up here. I promise lots of pretty photos and videos once we actually get to the Big Apple. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll snow!!<br /><br />-Ashleyjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-18835747531948109462008-02-03T22:11:00.000-08:002008-02-03T22:54:15.160-08:00knobs knobs knobsI found this old dresser in my grandmother's garage that I have had plans to restore for a while. Yet like many of my projects, it took a back seat to work and school, and is currently sitting in the outside patio storage of my current apartment. recently I have finally felt inspired enough to finish. All it really needs is sanding and a paint treatment. I want to find a good way to paint it with a cool distressed look similar to this one, except <span style="font-weight:bold;">not</span> pink.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R6ayFm2d8JI/AAAAAAAAAA8/UFkZxrSKxLU/s1600-h/after_dresser1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R6ayFm2d8JI/AAAAAAAAAA8/UFkZxrSKxLU/s200/after_dresser1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163009832224944274" /></a><br><br><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R6ayQ22d8KI/AAAAAAAAABE/l2DwnX4ywTU/s1600-h/after_dresser2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R6ayQ22d8KI/AAAAAAAAABE/l2DwnX4ywTU/s200/after_dresser2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163010025498472610" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />I've been researching ways to properly paint it to get the look I want, and finding a few solutions.

In doing so, I'll no doubt, have to compromise a lot of my interior design aesthetic. So I figured, as my last chance to deorate how <em>I </em>really want to decorate, and to push my extreme girliness to an all-time high-- I've decided to turn my bathroom into a St. Regis meets French Boudoir bathroom wonderland.<br />I've pulled some images, along with some clips from youtube, to share my inspiration with you.

Essentially, its a band going out and playing as close to acoustic as they can get while walking around and entertaining the masses.

Kelly song "Ignition" that was popular when I was in high school.<br /><br />To learn more on Cody, check out this article on <a href="http://www.fecalface.com/SF/index.php?Itemid=92&id=575&option=com_content&task=view">fecalface.com</a> (yeah, I know).<br />Also, his site <a href="http://www.struggleinc.com/">StruggleInc.</a><br /><br />-Ashleyjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-48409615600460393012008-01-24T16:36:00.000-08:002008-01-24T16:57:00.024-08:00<a href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/23/27538777_e804a9472e.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/23/27538777_e804a9472e.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />(Photo originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/santos/27538777/">chotda</a> on flickr.)<br />For a while now, Joshua and I have been discussing color coordinating our bookshelves. I've always been one to organize my books alphabetically by author, then by title, and so on. Color coordinating our books seems like such a chic, young way for us to organize and draw attention to color in our seemingly colorless homes. I'm just hoping when we do have the chance to organize (105 days according to our Crate and Barrel gift registry!) I'll be able to find my Shopaholics amongst his Bukowskis.<br /><br />-Ashleyjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-43736352038396709522008-01-23T22:41:00.000-08:002008-01-23T22:56:27.715-08:00i usually can understand the apple fan basebut sometimes.....<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g2a22d8II/AAAAAAAAAA0/draYbttaCX0/s1600-h/500xl_648.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g2a22d8II/AAAAAAAAAA0/draYbttaCX0/s400/500xl_648.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158933208181371010" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />i'm just stumped.<br /><br /><br /><br />via <a href="http://www.worldwidefred.com/500xl.htm">world wide fred</a><br /><br />-joshjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-10967153884480298642008-01-19T06:32:00.000-08:002008-01-19T06:33:27.441-08:00<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_SGwDhKTrwU&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_SGwDhKTrwU&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br /><br />-Ashleyjosh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-17485007943709858552008-01-19T01:32:00.001-08:002008-01-23T22:53:24.567-08:00guns guns guns<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g1vG2d8GI/AAAAAAAAAAk/kKNcrwtM7sg/s1600-h/Table-Gun_FL1_l.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g1vG2d8GI/AAAAAAAAAAk/kKNcrwtM7sg/s400/Table-Gun_FL1_l.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158932456562094178" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g1vW2d8HI/AAAAAAAAAAs/uyaYqP1srtc/s1600-h/Picture+2.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Sgw9pEN4gjY/R5g1vW2d8HI/AAAAAAAAAAs/uyaYqP1srtc/s400/Picture+2.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158932460857061490" /></a><br /><div>for some reason i keep finding things that are basically guns restyled into something else.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>and i want them all. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">lamp via </span><a href="http://www.lbclighting.com/TABLE-GUN.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">LBC lighting</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">eggs via </span><a href="http://www.urbantrendhk.com/product_info.php?product_code=30-359&category_id=1"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">UrbanTrend</span></a></div>josh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204756564289709279.post-5480021764490117752008-01-17T23:50:00.000-08:002008-01-17T23:55:15.763-08:00this blogis to discuss our inspiration.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>and our forthcoming dwelling.</div><div><br /></div><div>whenever we finally get there.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>-josh (and ashley)</div>josh and ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14012705028752515763noreply@blogger.com0
