so I kindly borrowed a picture I found on google images of a zipper pull for my loverly blog. just a little accent piece. not hurting anyone, but just now I found this in my email box:

which is cool. I mean, I guess I did steal it. but I didn't really think of it as stealing, like today it just seems to be common place to take pictures from anywhere on the internet. and music. and essays. and videos.
never really thought about all this infringement that's going on every second of every day. what does that say about society? ick.
moreover- what does that say about me? yikes.
will I stop? probably not, but it's definitely something to think about.
