your not allowed to store any animals


Today i went to one of the most fascinating mind boggling places i have ever been to. Today i went to Big Yellow Self Storage. The concept is that you can leave things there, leave alittle bit of your life in a selection of square feet with a lock and take the key that connects you with that space away with you.amazing! -There is surely so much potential there ?! Could you compartmentalise your entire existence? how many could you have? How often and when would you visit your things and what would you do when you were there ?

Out of curiosity i asked the guy that worked there whether there were restrictions on how long you could visit your 'space' and he said "you could get here at 6 and leave at 8 if you liked." Awesome. Studio? Sauna? This has to be investigated further. Whilst talking to Matt he mentioned a BBC documentary where this guy owned a Dalek and he kept it in storage for safety and would then frequently visit and drive it around. Copy and paste the link into an apple T, its utterly worth watching.

This is where I'm going to leave my thoughts when my head gets too full

Day No.1

My intention is to be the new Tavi Grevinson. Only she is a cute child prodigy and this I'll never be. [and i can't even work out how she made her header bar grey not blue] 

I'm not made of code so just in case I'm judged on my blog style here's what I'd have if i could achieve it; it would look like a page in a book, a few creases maybe. My title would be have photocopied buttercups casually next to it. I would have huge tomato-red hand written headings and gray body text. Each image would be subtly textured to look like a print and expand when you clicked on it so that you could see how wonderful it was abit better. That would be nice wouldn't it.
