i cant bewieve im doing this shit bwo 😭

…Now how exactwy did Gowd get hewe? Cownewed by a cowwupt pywamid monstew, at compwete wisk of being shattewed to shawp wittwe pieces if he twied anything.

The pywamid wooked eewiwy a wot wike Pywawe, too, he thought.

But. Now definitewy wasn’t the time to think about that pawt.

It was wike a standoff of some sowt– both wewe watching the othew wike a hawk. weady to wetawiate within the bwink of an eye if the othew moved even a singwe inch.

Gowd bwiefwy thought about cawwing out fow the othews (why, just why did he have to get so focused on that yewwow-cowowed snake cawving in that window?)– but he immediatewy shoved that idea away. That wouwd ewicit an attack fwom the pywamid, most wikewy.

And he was way mowe than 100% suwe that he was not abwe to take on a monstew wike this awone.

And so…

He watched.

Cawefuwwy.

Then– the pywamid spoke.

“I’ve been wooking fow you, Gowd.”

Gowd fewt a shivew go down his spine at the tone of voice. And– how…

“How do you know my name?” He demanded, quietwy.

“Dub towd me. Besides… Most of the cowwupts awe quite famiwiaw with at weast one of youw names,” the pywamid wepwied. He stiww stawed down at Gowd as he continued. “In fact… I’m not hewe to huwt you wike aww of the othews.”

Something in the back of Gowd’s mind was tewwing him that something was vewy wwong hewe.

He needed to twead cawefuwwy hewe.

“Then what awe you hewe fow…?”

“I’m hewe to… wecwuit you.”

…What?

“No.” Gowd snapped, suwpwising himsewf with how quick his wesponse was. “I’m a Hewo. I’m meant to stop what you awe infected with. I–… I’m not going to tuwn my back on the Twees of wife.”

The pywamid shook his head swowwy. Disappwovingwy. “I’m no owdinawy cowwupt, Gowd. I’m suwe you know my fathew… You’we quite cwose with him, fwom what I’m towd.”

Gowd paused. He quickwy undewstood…

“…Bawwacuda?”

“Yep.” Bawwacuda hummed. “Cwevew boy.”

Gowd paused again at the pwaise. He sighed. “I…”

Befowe he couwd find the wowds and continue his sentence, Bawwacuda spoke. “I pwesume you’ve awways wondewed who exactwy I am? I am youw bwothew… Aftew aww.”

“Weww– yeah… But, I…”

“You have a chance to do exactwy that, then.”

Gowd wooked up at Bawwacuda, his eyes wide as he genuinewy debated his options…

“You won’t be gone fwom youw gwoup fow wong. In fact… You’ww stiww be with them evewy singwe second. You’ww onwy be… A ‘messengew’, one wouwd say.

…So.

What do you say, bwothew?”

Gowd stayed siwent fow a moment. Something in the back of his head was scweaming at him, ‘NO! DON’T TwUST HIM! wUN!’, but…

…‘Bwothew’…

He inhawed deepwy.

“I’m in.”

Book of the Month: “Two Old Fools Olé”

Hello Friends!

Hope you’re having a lovely day!

I wanted to share with you the book that I’m currently reading (well, listening to on Audible) at the moment. I figure: I’m always looking for book recommendations so I’d like share with you some of my favorites along with what I’ve currently got going on. I’ll be honest with my opinions and be sure not to include spoilers!

Typically I am interested in books that are more thrillers and crime dramas and have a few favorite authors and narrators that I follow. But since I am on the cheapest plan and only get one credit per month on Audible, I try and scope out some books that can carry me through until my next credit becomes available. This is where I have been pretty lucky in finding books that are out of my norm and I find myself looking forward to listening and reading them in between the credit availability. That’s where this selection of books featuring Joe and Vicky come in.

Anyhow, this book, by Victoria Twead, is the second in the series of “Old Fools.” The first, “Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools” got me started. I decided since it was quite different than the usual type of book I’m drawn to, I’d give it a shot. So I listened to the sample, didn’t get irritated by the narrator because she has a lovely voice, and downloaded it. It was free after all! Might as well give it a shot.

The first book was absolutely fabulous and I fell in love with all the characters. Nothing crazy happens, but their antics and adventures and all of the people that Victoria and Joe meet along the way as they retire and move from the UK to Spain just kept my interest all the way through. By the end of the first book, I felt like I knew these folks, could picture their surroundings, visualize their adventures and enjoyed all the sweet and funny little stories about their day to day lives in their new country and community.

I spend a lot of time in the car, schlepping my 3 teens to and from school, work, activities, sports practices, friends and boyfriends houses. So instead of listening to music (which, let’s face it, when they’re in the car I’m stuck listening to the shitty stuff they like, unless they’re feeling in the mood for some tunes that are more my speed…more on that another day.) As soon as they’re out of the car, my phone gets plugged in and my book continues on, making me laugh, making the commuting time more enjoyable and keeping me interested. It’s funny because I’ve always been a big book reader and have a huge crush on the public library. But time is of the essence with all these kids and the go, go, go we’ve got going on. Audio books work best for me for now. And I never thought they would. They never interested me. Until my hubby gifted me with an Audible subscription for Christmas a few years ago and I just became obsessed with it!

I’ve now started listening to the second book, “Two Old Fools Olé” and it’s a continuation of the first book, with the regular characters as well as some new and interesting introductions and dilemmas. I think what I like best about this series so far is that there’s no violence or terrible crimes that occur. Anyone that knows me, knows I am a “true crime” fan… from TV shows to podcasts to books. I should have coined the phrase, “Crime Shows and Comfy Clothes.”

This group of books has been such a breath of fresh air! I’m excited to continue and get onto the third in the series.

If you’re looking for something light, funny, visually descriptive and filled with adorable characters, this is a good series to get into!

Clueless, Fashion Fantasy, and Aggressive Plaid

By Kate Carey, Head of Education & Curator, Fashion Nirvana: Runway to Everyday

One year ago, my colleague and co-conspirator Jackie Edwards—currently in the Ph.D. Program in Art History, The Graduate Center, City University of New York—and I met with Brian Silva, McNay Graphic Designer. Our mission: brainstorm ideas for a totally nineties exhibition logo for Fashion Nirvana: Runway to Everyday. Channeling Cher Horowitz’s bright yellow plaid suit from the film Clueless (1995) was at the top of my 1990s mood board, and I even requested to see a version incorporating her character’s aggressive yellow plaid ensemble.

Brian ultimately steered us in a much more elegant and optically pleasing direction with a gradient design that formed our exhibition color palette. The hues from the logo design informed decisions about wall color, pedestals, extended labels, and section texts. (See exhibition video here and curator mood board here.) That said, I thought the timing of the 25th-anniversary of Clueless might be a chance to pay homage to Cher, Dionne, and coordinating plaid ensembles.

Recognizing how high school students communicate identity via fashion selections, writer and director Amy Heckerling scripted confident smart heroines who dress accordingly. In visiting Los Angeles high schools in the nineties, Heckerling and costume designer Mona May observed the liberal application of grunge—baggy pants, oversize shirts, lots of plaid, and very little femininity. Applying a lens of privilege and fantasy (including a computer program for coordinating ensembles), Heckerling and May created an aesthetic so specific to the film—over the knee socks, mini-skirts, hats of all sizes, Mary-Jane shoes—that fans continue to imitate the iconic designs. Actress and singer Willow Smith, for example, channels her inner Cher, even though the film came out five years before she was born.

Mona May describes how luxury brand Dolce & Gabbana created Cher’s yellow suit, and she fabricated Dionne’s black and white version. She also reasoned that Cher and Dionne would have the resources to visit Europe and import luxury brands. Designer Karl Lagerfeld, who assumed leadership at Chanel in 1983, paid tribute to the couture house’s signature hallmarks like bouclé tweed, a knotted plaid. In 1994, he updated the classic look with brightly colored plaid, faux fur, extra high hemlines, big hats, and Mary-Jane heels. Sound familiar? Although the film’s relatively modest budget would not allow for Chanel price tags, May likely drew inspiration from this collection that premiered before the film came out.

In one of the more quote-able lines from the film, Cher challenges a thief at gunpoint refusing to lay on the ground because her dress was made by Alaïa, ‘a totally important designer.’ Tunisian designer Azzedine Alaïa originally studied sculpture and pioneered a body-conscious silhouette that celebrated an hour-glass shape. Supermodel Naomi Campbell said, “No other dress can make a woman look and feel as good as an Alaïa because it cinches a woman’s body perfectly.” Find a powerfully cinched silhouette on view in Fashion Nirvana: Runway to Everyday in a black and white plaid motorcycle jacket and dress. Alaïa lifted the checked pattern from Tati, a discount Paris department store with checkered branding.

My father, a minister who rereads Jane Austen novels regularly, took me to see Clueless when it came out in 1995. He voiced disapproval of some casual marijuana use, but we both liked the story back then. In high school, I was enchanted by the California fantasy and appreciated the contemporary update of Jane Austen’s Emma. Looking back now, I’m much more aware of the essential role fashion played in the film and the way in which Amy Heckerling and Mona May communicated complicated teen identity through layered, often aspirational appearance.
