these texts are an archive of my life in the San Francisco Bay Area from march 2007 - march 2015. it stands as a record of close to a decade of my life, charting the struggles i faced as an artist, daughter, and lover. messy and chaotic at times, eloquent and poetic at others, these texts are an index i am proud of. it was here in this electric box that i learned how to be honest about my experiences and the person i needed to become. it was here that i first learned the truism that words make the world and how to trust such a beautiful, rife, hard fact.

thank you for meeting me here in such tall grass.


my artist website is here.

ugg...

christmas day my sweetie and i both woke up sick. the kind of sick that gets worse as you go forward through the day. and it's pretty much the same way today. we got out and did the grocery shopping. we needed orange juice and NyQuil. and i don't know where the last two days went... somewhere lost in the fog of mental congestion that seems to come along for the ride when one gets the flu... i suppose there was a holiday somewhere in there. ha! all this to say, i am currently shirking all responsibilities to lay around in footie pajamas and whine and eat carrot cake instead of fruit and i really want to watch Donnie Darko tonight and be lazy in front of the television and not do a damn thing at all other than that. maybe i'll make popcorn. greasy butter-loaded heart-clogging popcorn.

counting today, there are only 6 days left in the year. geez. too fast, kids. way too fast.

heather, i'm so happy you're cruising through the links! lots of good writing and reading there. i'm inspired every time i turn around by all the wonderful artists in the world, working away for the love of it, in "relative obscurity" as they say. i like the humble little web we are all building. it is quite a comfort to me.

i haven't seen Eraserhead yet! ahhhhh!!! i am jealous!!! i need to buy it. it sounds like you had a damn good holiday! yay!!!!
