over and out.

oh-so-sorry for the lack of posts! things have been kooky-crazy as i prepare to depart for the UK tomorrow. phew. i can't believe the day has finally come. i have been preparing for my adventure for over a year and a half now. and everything is just about ready. i'm just about ready to *believe* that this is all happening, but first i'll get to celebrate/mourn my leaving with a great last hurrah tonite.

-----just a few things i'm looking forward to:------

*being back in school (as if i need an excuse to buy school/office supplies!)
*NOT driving and instead doing a lot of walking and taking the public transport. i really feel that my driving skills have substantially taken a turn for the worst over the past few months! so this couldn't come at a better time.
*going to topShop for the first time in five or so years; no more needing to lust after the website!
*posting lots of pics from my new (yes!) digiCam.
*and with posting lots of pics, i will be switching my journal over to LiveJournal. blogger has been giving me lots of problems, and i haven't been able to post Fotos in quite some time now. plus! so many people's journals that i read are over there, and now i won't feel so out of the loop! we will have a link to the LiveJournal account here on the flap site for all of you to keep up with my adventures.

as for the site, a few of the pages will be undergoing changes in the next little bit, as soon as i can get some new collages made. i will probably send out an email when this happens.

ok, now back to packing. it's tough squeezing your life for a year into two suitcases!

this saturday i am having a yard sale with my friend danita, since we are both moving away! if you're in or around greensboro THIS saturday, september 10th, come out and see us at 701 n. green st (on the corner of fisher and green) from 7 am - 1pm. we'll have lots of vintage and thrifted goodies, and hopefully some treats for lucky shoppers.

wish you were here.

seeing people with their flap stuff about town or online in fotos keeps me inspired and always brightens my day. and i'd love to have fotos of all of you out there with a flap product for my gallery pages.

so...send 'em over my way. (info@flapbags.net)

also, if you are around greensboro/winston-salem, nc, this weekend, check out the silent art auction at the werehouse in winston to benefit victims of hurricane katrina. it's from 6-8 pm with live music at 7pm. i will be donating at least three pieces of flap clothing for the auction. you can also find more info here.
