last night while sitting in poetry class the most astounding idea for a fort came to me. my heart started beating very fast! this fort will involve: research at the library, math, warm yellow light, sewing machines, feathers, pockets, poetry, and the golden ratio. it will be sturdy yet portable, like a tipi. the only problem is that this ( Read more... )

the rainy leaky roof goes clink! clink! into the coffecan. drivin around drinking wine out of mason jars. this summer will involve a farm. in the greenhouse i am growing cotton & artichokes all by myself!

my new years' resolution was to sew the button back on my coat but it's starting to look like i was a little over-ambitious with that one. the ballad of jimjones makes my heart hurt. it's rainin in january and the horsemen of the apocalypse are nigh!

1. i am readin "dharma bums" right now and even though it annoys the hell outta me, i still want to name my firstborn japhy and all. i also bought a big jug of wine because i couldn't stand reading it without drinking jugwine for one more second. it is exactly the perfect book for my brain right now ( Read more... )

yesterday i watched this amazing documentary about a bike messenger in nyc and now it's all i can think about. dude was slightly crazy & a lot of the shots were just him holding the camera as he RACED through traffic at the speed of light seriously like he was trying to kill himself. he kept grabbing onto trucks and just barely squeezing between ( Read more... )

the cat who lives across the street spends most of his time at our house. his name is furley and he is nervous pretty much 100% of the time ( Read more... )

our bathroom is broken-down and none of the lights work even when i replaced the lightbulbs. since our landlord is a hobo, i decided that this would be an exciting opportunity to find out what it is like to be blind. i've gotten pretty good at putting in my contacts, except blind people probably wouldn't have to do that one. showering in the ( Read more... )
