there is nothing wrong with being alone

Radishing Fruity

what is in your food

the other christmas martyr

"I can't believe I stayed up all night for YOU!"

"Shit yo, it's no secret, good little boys and girls get gifts made by Chinese good little boys and girls and naughty kids get punched in the neck."

finding the strength to get through the season

don't fuck with me kid, I've killed before. You're old enough to know you can't trust a guy with this much beard.

no lappy

"You can sit on it if you can find it, but I doubt you will get anything you would ever want."

brilliance is blinding

I don't think about telling stories anymore, i think about writing my memoirs (with an accented wa). I am going to call it "HBNW:)", you know, 'has been never was' but acronym-y, to appeal to the internet crowd.

"So Long, Fuckers!"

Tonight at Cravedog in fabulous downtown Portland

Please come show your support for all of those needing supports.

Cravedog Gallery is having a Christmas sale and my work will be part of aforementioned sale.

leave her to heaven

"sometimes he would call me 'the gal with the hole' to kid me about my gardening."

yes, that is a total 'dig'.

i frame my stuff too... it could be me, i can tell by the eyes

Help me, Any advice, Any requests? I'll Make you an original picture, for cheap price. Great for gifts. Like any or have ideas. I like oil pastels, but also do pencil, charcoal, mixed media. I'll put in frames.

isn't married life great?

and then sometimes, when i'm not thinking about my blog, hair, grad school or something equally fascinating to everyone around me, i think about how something as simple as an inch and a half comes between my legacy and a shit. i just count the levels of taint-mazing and then i go and do yoga.

Twilight rummage sale

my obsessive compulsive shopping disorder is your gain!

memberin

not doing a lot of sales around town this season.

busy

i'm not important, just busy, there's a subtle difference that i can't be bothered just now to explain because i am far too busy.

disney usa

i really hate all of those frozen guys for hijacking childhood. why is every day a "princess" moment? i don't even remember princesses from my childhood. i remembered mash, but only because it sucked.

how you know

I can't help thinking about how much i hate peter bogdanovich.

beautiful fall day

trying to figure out what i should do, you know, career wise

it is still sad, ironically

and every day at this time on this day i think about how awesome it would be if it were awesome. i listen to the talking ones talk about the "lost potential" and the bad art tributes that invariably end with a grave. i see the logic, brown is really the easiest color to make, art wise. we all cling to the brilliant sad to make our sad more brilliant. it is a little bright, through the clouds, the dirt, this...but it is never brilliant. i see it coming but i still miss.

"Oh Well, Okay"

Here's the silhouette, the face always turned away
The bleeding color gone to black, dying like a day
Couldn't figure out what made you so unhappy
Shook your head to say no no no
And stopped for a spell
And stayed that way
Oh well, okay

I got pictures, I just don't see it anymore
Climbing hour upon hour through a total bore
With the one I keep, where it never fades
In the safety of a pitch-black mind
An airless cell
That blocks the day
Oh well, okay

If you get a feeling next time you see me
Do me a favor and let me know
'Cos it's hard to tell
It's hard to say
Oh well, okay
Oh well, okay
Oh well, okay

Teddy seemed like a smart kid

falling

one of those beautiful days when i wanted to run or paint or fall in love--instead i started drinking earlier.

Open Studios Weekend TWO

now with more monkey

i just want to thank you for supporting my inability to support myself

and space isn't much better

seems like i'm still sad about the fishies

another great day

i hope this is all as awesome as the unicorn said it would be

i made it cuter, always cuter for stephen colbear

come over and watch me fail!

open studios! buy your guide from me (seriously, i have like ten left...i'm not good at "sales").

Babies eating babies!

i really see a future in this, career-wise; like the next week and a half is totally covered.

yummy yummy yummy yummy...etc

The Betrayal

what's the song???

i hope it's "perfect day" by lou reed, or maybe "kerosene" by big black

Monkeys always disappoint

i guess it's because we have such high expectations from them. shouldn't they always be laughing?

so much to do and i do something worth so little

but it's soo cute!

"cook the dog!"

Worst Birthday Ever!

maybe it would have been better to have saved the money for a really great funeral with a vegetarian option and the chicken dance, but with a corpse to keep it all in perspective.

Happy Birthday Dan!

I'm already wearing shoes, why would I want two pairs of shoes? You think i'm one of those latte drinking greeting card buyers? well, i'm not and i only need one pair of shoes. Now let's go take some pills and laugh at those bitches on HGTV.

although uncomfortable, ava was happy being in the box.
