There's been a couple of great sightings around here the past couple days.
First one was when I was on the bus yesterday morning. Along the route I look up from my reading, and low and behold, there's a mowhawk on the bus!! Yup, punk on the bus!
I saw this guy once and only once before. He was pretty cool then, but he had short hair then. Had his pretty sweet but cool leather on. Man, it must have weighed a ton because he had tons of spikes all over it. Then, this time has a killer green mohawk. I though about asking him to come to this party tonight, but no guts. Plus the fact that he gets off by the high school. But im sure hed be cool to hang out with. I need more punk friends anyways.
Second great finding was while I was at the Salvation Army looking for crazy 80's clothes (more on that later). As I was walking around I see this small pink scroll sticking up from behind a poster. I moved the photo9, and found this amazing mirror frame, and it was only $5.
Its a vibrant pink, but whoever painted it did a stupid job. It looks like the painted over it (it was silver, gold at first), didn't even wipe it down before spraying. they sprayed over the dust and all. So in lots of areas the paint just falls off.
I don't know where I'm going to put it. That matches what I have going in my bathroom, but I already have so many mirrors in there it would be useless. I can make it into a regular frame and have it in my living room which I think is what Ill do.
I get a catalog from this great company called Brocade which has really ornate style of stuff. Needless to say I love a lot of stuff they have, only their terribly expensive (that mirror goes for $500). But the new mirror I got is a great, and only 1% of the price! Great find.

Cool Mirror! So are you going to leave it pink, paint over the "bad" paint job, or try getting the paint off? I need to go thrift shopping soon to get some things on my walls! ...so did you ask the mo-hawk guy to the party?
