Haecceity

hek-see'i-tee, n (Latin, from haec, this)
   The aspect of existence on which individuality depends; the hereness and nowness of reality. First coined by the philosopher Duns Scotus, haecceity is that sense one gets of being in the present tense, the pure experience of a single moment in time.

Words From Una Bella Vita

"it’s easy to date a girl who reads. Give her books for her birthday, for Christmas and for anniversaries. Give her the gift of words, in poetry, in song. Give her Neruda, Pound, Sexton, Cummings. Let her know that you understand that words are love. Understand that she knows the difference between books and reality but by god, she’s going to try to make her life a little like her favorite book. It will never be your fault if she does." 

I check This Lovely Blog almost every day, and today I just had to "re-tweet" part of her post. It was just that good.

Just discovered these beautiful dresses by Sarah Seven.

I want to wear one and take a walk in all the sunshine outside today.
[who cares that they're wedding dresses, they are beautiful and should be worn quite often]
Alas, I have neither the money nor the time to spend out of doors.
Someone else go soak up some vitamin D for me.
Okay thanks.

Progress

Pantone has released its "Spring Color Prediction"
And in the excitement of springtime, I decided to make a series of little illustrations based on the predicted palette. Nothing brilliant, just fun. I'll post the rest when I've finished.

This Will Be A Waldo Week

I can already feel it. 
Outside of class and coffee dates, I'll be hard to find.
