Suprises + Suchlike

Tuesday, August 10, 2010

Surprises of all sorts are abounding in this scorching season. The heat has gotten so intense that the minute you step outside, all the air is sucked out of your lungs. I retreat into the cool, dark cave of my studio and endeavor to respond in kind to some of the very wonderful things I’ve [...]

Magic Windows #1

Wednesday, August 26, 2009

Want to see into my day-to-day? My crazy-ass hyper-power robot celephone records it fairly faithfully for me, and it’s high-time for a magic window party! Jewels from the shop. Sometimes I cannot resist the sparkle. Okay, I admit that I have a problem- my bijoux collection is getting a bit out of hand! Also from [...]

Blueberry Honey

Sunday, May 17, 2009

Good things: I received a surprise parcel this week from my long-lost friend Herr von der Goltz- it contained a disc- Music of the Tatar People and a book from 1903, German Wit and Humor. I love the nouveau cover! So sweet- I am cheered. I can’t describe the joy I feel at wandering around [...]

Birthdee Glee

Friday, January 23, 2009

I am very happy and a tad abashed to admit that my 30th birthday was such a momentous occasion that it has taken me nearly two weeks to recover from the festivities! Our abode may never recover, in fact- we may have decided to keep it as a half-gutted forest covered in glitter confetti and [...]

Happy Hexmas!

The Barbary Coast

Sunday, November 9, 2008

On Tuesday, my sweetheart and my grandfather and I are going to San Francisco for a week! It’s strange to think that it has been nearly a year since I visited San Francisco! So much has happened in that time, and I’ve been so busy that I never even got around to writing more about [...]

O Mais Ko Aprilis

Monday, April 9, 2007

all I want is to be writing and it goes something like… once that wish did land-like a star in my hand- it burned and it burned and it burrowed in- soar through the source searching- hammer and ping-and tapped my virgin spring- and prime the vein with milk of mother- and wet my river [...]

Birthdee Wishes Come True

Monday, January 22, 2007

Woefully, shamefully behind am I in recounting my days- and most other tasks to be honest, me duckies..
