I already miss the tranquility of England. The culture felt very "think before you speak-ish" but that is most likely personal assessment.

New things

I've made a large list of things I need to change, improve on, and get back to. A large part of which is digging into my art more, gaining back my patience, and regaining my sense of control financially - mentally - & physically. How well it will go? No idea BUT you can enjoy this video which I feel describes my epiphany moment pretty well. I don't enjoy the metaphors or symbolism in The Matrix or anything~

Can't get this song out of my head...


Am I the only one who liked them in the 90's? Love it

Grant Wood

Reminds me of my childhood growing up in Wisconsin. Glacial activity in WI is often undermined.

short term bad decisions - i will see you soon. I will blame it on Deadmau5 and Bassnectar...

NEXT STOP: York England!



Travels

I used to be a homebody. I owe my adventurous attitude to someone.

FAQ

Am I an artist or a bored guy with a paintbrush???

bahumbug

i don't think i've felt this much frustration in my entire life these past few months. this lack of control breeds more frustrations and angry assumptions. feels like i dont have much to show for myself despite all the things i do. who knows? I sure as hell don't ;-)

Tamara De Lempicka - Green Turban

Loves me some Art Deco

Balthus - Theresa, 1938

One of my favorites, I'm happy to have seen it in person ;-)

Michael Raedecker - Gloom


Gorgeous piece of art. This picture doesn't do it much justice but most of the brighter colors are actually embroidered with string.

There is a fire inside my head - I can smell the smoke, but I can't tell what's on fire.

Jeremy Bastian - Cursed Pirate Girl

Recently attended the C2E2 comic convention at McCormick center in Chicago and stumbled upon a really talented artist (Jeremy Bastian). I purchased a signed print and comic of "Cursed Pirate Girl." Very cool illustrations and really inspirational. Enjoy. http://www.jeremybastian.com/

Beginning to feel a little overrated. I think I'm right on this one.

"Now you can see yourself"

I've been lazy

Over the past few months a lot has happened and a lot has changed. For better or for worse I'm not sure yet.One thing I do know is I've put my policies and change on hold while recovering - if that's what it can be called. So all in all I've realized I've been dragging my body - mind & "spirit." or as I called it my "weapon." Time for some change ;-)

- thanks Britt <3

WEAR SOMETHING DIFFERENT ASSHOLE!

Pet Peeve

So when your driving a hunk of metal that weighs thousands of pounds one would think simply lifting your finger to flip the stick up or down to signal into another lane would be quite easy. Wrong. It's actually pretty difficult for most. lift your fat ass finger and use your signal. unacceptable.

Pet Peeve

Who else gets pissed when the cap of the toothpaste is left off so the next time you go to brush your teeth you got that rubberized toothpaste at the tip?! No different than the hardened cheese at the tip of cheese-wiz cans. Not acceptable...
