probably going to be cloudy with a chance of some of my favourite childhood paperback memories tumbling down. dithering/nostalgia ahead. My whirligig slanty shanty home (and now studio/beatnik professoress office!) pumpkin-grin in oranges of my playroom, inadvertently recreated, ever-nested on a couch, reading. A penchant for juiceboxes, paperbacks, lava lamped, construction paper crazy. i’m the oddity collector i always knew i’d ‘grow up’— continuing to be. Glimpses of the kooky adults that ‘got away with it’ were too few and far between. You would believe in ghosts, and wait for dust signs. Aww, a reading guide.

oh Alice. / i didn’t quite know what to do with the idea a friend tried to put in my head back in summer04— i was despairing not ‘having a place’ in the world of obvious careers/job-decisions and freaking out about temp work and making it in this world (i was between frosh/soph year of college, so—) anyhoo, this friend told me that i didn’t need to choose the right path, that i just needed to have decided on one for the moment. so that i cld easily answer with it in interviews or conversations with people that wouldn’t ‘get’ the big art fag picture of my life. my brain has meshed this ‘path of the moment’/one stepping stone on the way to one’s ultimate path— with the Emersonian (? misremembered education?) idea that life can be accomplished by sailing metaphor— always tacking and re-adjusting to the winds. criss-crossing across the sea. i’d say there’s something to it. one foot in front of another. eventually we make our own cattle paths, typhoons, trade winds, pirate ships, Venetian canals and worlds to explore and roles to live in them. i have rarely seen a life that rings entirely true as what i want (to be/to be doing), so i seek every day to expand on what i do want to be doing. words from/to the girl frantically setting up her first actual art studio to do all the art/writerly/life things i’ve always wanted to. gah. blerg. art. oh Alice.

“ Lovers are not at their best when it matters. Mouths dry up, palms sweat, conversation flags and all the time the heart is threatening to fly from the body once and for all. Lovers have been known to have heart attacks. Lovers drink too much from nervousness and cannot perform. They eat too little and faint during their fervently wished consummation. They do not stroke the favoured cat and their face-paint comes loose.This is not all. Whatever you have set store by, your dress, your dinner, your poetry, will go wrong.

jojo Lazar - Ukulele Lady (by DeDaBadaddy)

Thanks again for all your documentations Andy!!! i emcee’d Walter Sickert’s 2012: An Army of TOys Odyssey at Boston First Night— the other night. here i am before the 2nd of 3 TOys sets, in my “Batman & The Choc. Factory” get-up (Harley Salt!) i’m spooky nonlit, hat decisions shld be influenced for next time. but anyhoo, i had the pleasure of using Craig Robertson’s De Chirico uke as my emcee station uke. (oh yeah, pix of me with my bouquet of ukes from the night comin’ up next!) My (whole fam damily) family was in the audience, so i was makin’ a joke at mon pere, the chef d’orchestre/orchestral conductor at the end there. Aren’t you so proud of your Suzuki drop-out daughter?! i am silly Boop filler.

2012pocalypse. Yesuary!
