I've been watching you and I've been wondering.

Not much of an update; I haven't really done much since the last entry, however I did complete a drawing that I'd been working solely on at work.

Kurt Vonnegut (I call it "Kurt I" because I plan to do a "Kurt II" with Kurt Cobain if I continue to be slow at work.)

Below are some of my favorite Vonnegut quotes that I hope you'll enjoy:

"Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand."

"I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center."

"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward."

"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before... He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way."

Every post seems to start out about the same, so I've decided to start out this and possibly future posts with something a little different. Probably a little random because it tends to be my style. First, random: Remember Marriedtothesea ? It's been a couple years since I followed this webcomic, but today we reunited, however briefly. Their comics along with the original Toothpastefordinner , range from probably-too-smart-for-me to omg-hilarious. In any case, here's a recent gem: I am still unsure of how to properly give credit to authors of sites and images without "hotlinking". So I have not linked this image. However, I hope it's pretty evident if you've read anything above: this ain't mine, it's Marriedtothesea.com's. Now on with the update.. Another "art scarf" made while I was on vacation.. Yes, it's a little wonky, no judging. That's a geometric interior pocket you're seeing. Finally onto the most recent addition: ...

I’m not what you think I am I’m the king of Siam

Well well, we meet again. I don't have much of an update tonight because I'm moving tomorrow A.M. and almost everything I want to play with is packed. I'm actually quite anxious about this move, though I'm sure it will go fairly smoothly. Utilities are all turned on (new house), the house I'm leaving is in relatively good shape (though I'm sure the panic will set in when I wake up tomorrow..), and I totally fixed the hole I tore in the paint in my bedroom. Still, despite everyone that's helping me and the excitement to move to the new house, I still kind of feel like I'm doing this on my own. Oh, and I haven't heard back from the future landlord yet regarding when I can pick up the key, which scares me a lot little. Think happy thoughts.. In any case, not much crafting or sewing going on right now, I've resigned to playing DS and trying to imagine how much I can fit in that box over there. Have I mentioned how much this moving has consumed me? I...

DC, finally

Here are some photos I took in DC. My camera's getting worse every time I try to use it, and maybe I am too. National Portrait Gallery, from the floor. Renwick Gallery, part of the Smithsonian Museum. Wild Bill, Presidents' exhibit of the National Portrait Gallery. Close up of a silk installation piece at Renwick. It's kind of dumb that I don't remember who the artist is. Perty houses. Virginia has the best welcome sign. But their interstate only goes up to 65. Tiled wall bordering a park in Stacy's neighborhood. Prettiest dessert I ever did have! (Red Rocks) Awesome concrete-writing fail. It looks like it says "fuck everything", but it actually says "luck everything". Rawr! 4 days is not enough. This was my second trip to DC. Not pictured is the Thao and Mirah show we went to for Stacy's birthday. Divine!
