The Jack White concert was so amazing. 

Stephanie and I are somewhere in that crowd but I'm not going to try too hard to find us. I think it's kind of amazing how many people actually followed their no cell phone rule. They've been asking the audiences throughout the whole tour to not take photos or films and just to relax and enjoy the performance in person. I can agree that so many gigs you go to now, everyone's standing there with their phones and cameras up watching a live stage through a portable screen. You look up at the stage and all you see is a sea of cell phones in front of you and their light kinda messes up your own view. 

Some bands have tried to embrace this (Coldplay for example) but Jack White has gone the other direction and I think it's worked out pretty well actually. I mean, look at that second photo, hardly a phone to be seen, right? I wasn't even tempted to take mine out the whole time. They take photos themselves and put it on his website so that people can just put down the phones for one second and be there. And let's be honest, these photos are a million times better than any of the crappy ones I could have taken. 

Tis the season to complain about moving again. I hate it. I hate packing. I hate having to readjust. I hate getting rid of things. I hate the physical aspect of moving. 

But it can't be helped. 

So instead, let's look at what I did to my mini bookcase! 

Bit drab huh? Well, it was cheap and present, who am I to overlook a bookcase just because it's a bit too plain? After all, those things can change. 

Good thing I was going for crappy vintage look so it doesn't matter if it's got creases and lines right? 

Taaaadaaaaa!

But in all honesty I am beginning to seriously pack. I am sitting amongst a sea of boxes and that's a start right? 

I'm sick, okay? Take pity on me and send me soup. 

EDIT: OH YEAH! 

I forgot to mention, the whole reason I woke up at this horrible time of day (haha 11) was to mention the teas. 

The teas you ask?

You remember those Adventure Time themed teas Kat and I did for Adagio like... two years ago? Oh yeah they are still a thing. Yeah, actually we have like seven of them out (one's out of stock right now though) yeah and for this weekend only they were selected for a fandom blend. Really popular ones gets picked for permanent sampling packages but we'll see how this goes first! Look at iiiiit. 

so pretty.
