So yesterday I hung out with Amber Benson (Tara on BtVS). She did a book reading/signing at a comic book store, and it was PRETTY FANTASTIC. I desperately wanted to kidnap her and take her home with me, she was that adorable. So now I can say say I stalked Daniel Dae Kim and a Bryn Mawr theater production, saw a tiny figure on a stage who I'm told ( Read more... )

amusingly enough, this has been a weird-ass summer. I decided to spend 2 months of it in GA, where through random happenstance I was connected with a woman who helps run a super liberal church that my dad goes to (despite us being a family of agnostics), who was willing to have my volunteer help to redecorate the church. I did some drawings for some banners and everyone loved them and now the are going to be big-ass installations at the front of the church. The end. I have apparently started a career in liturgical design. What the ever loving fuck that is so ironic I can't even deal. So they are obviously rather lacking in the more...macabre...element of my art, bit the head of the church COMPARED ME TO MICHELANGELO so actually I'M OKAY WITH THAT.

AHAHAHAHAHAH OH MY. i am...uncertain as to whether i should laud you or disown you. possibly both? don't all great artists have to be abused and eschewed and all that fun stuff anyway? yes? i will be the first to eschew you then, jesus-fucker. YOU GOD-FEARING HERETIC!!!

(more seriously, that is AWEFUCKINGSOME. FUCKING MICHELANGELO AHAHAHAHA. kfhnsdfkjsdkfd now i want to go visit fuckin' GEORGIA, of all places. i hate you. and adore you. also, i am rather interested in your dad's church-going habits. why does he go, if i may pry? you mean a liberal church WON'T cause a big-ass rift in space and time? whatever, i should be used to living paradoxes by now. this summer at explo i met a gay republican, and my brain imploded.)

And to think I only used to go to Church on Christmas Eve...

But seriously, the email he wrote me was like the best praise I have ever received. From anyone. Ever.

my dad's quote is "there are no 79 year old atheists". the young are comfortable believing in nothing, the old like to think they might be getting togas and harps in the afterlife :D But srsly, this church is far less offensive to my sensibilities than most. Both the head minister man and his father in law have gay daughters, so they are vocal against any anti-gay stuff within the Methodist community. A typical service is pretty much singing non-tradition hymns/Cat Stevens songs then listening to the minister? pastor? (I never know) say smart, socially relevant things and occasionally mention the G word. My dad said he would join only if he was allowed to believe Jesus was just a nice guy, and the minipastor basically agreed with him. I know. In Georgia.
