SONG: Temple Songs - “Passed Caring”
I was in another one of my moods when I received a postcard from Andi and Veronika. It instantly cheered me up, and made me realize I need to keep to my promise of swapping art. I’m sort of killing this as a surprise for Andi, but I figure I’m sending it across the ocean. What if it gets lost? So, here you go Andi. It should be arriving in Austria soon.
Now, for your entertainment, here is Andi, Veronika, and Julia frolicking in the Californian surf.
SONG: Plaided - “Hold on Tight”
I went with Kara to a stamp making class at Stitch Lab last Friday. Kat, our teacher, won me over when she told me she met Joe Strummer, AND liked Suburban Lawns.
These faces are not the best, but I wanted to share. I made other faces, a rabbit, and a severed foot. I kept trying to get ink to stick to this one, but it just didn’t seem to want to work. I decided to draw the rest in with a pen.

I pedaled my way to pottery class last night, and when I opened the studio door I was greeted by a cage FULL OF KITTENS. I pushed past people in a deadlock stare on the kittens. “Yeah. Yeah. Good to see you, too. GET OUTTA MY WAY. KITTENS!”
I tried to guilt Goldie into letting me take one home. I even used my upcoming birthday as extra leverage, but I guess as a part of being a GROWN UP you must learn to compromise as well as not force a point when it seems the other party isn’t budging.
But, I realllllllly want one.

Carmen’s egg sac finally opened, and released all her spiderlings out onto the web in my kitchen window. It made me like the world again until driving to work I noticed a dead cat off my highway exit.
(Update: The world righted itself again when I saw Chloe walking down my street carrying library books (sci-fi and Lovecraft). She’s this really intense thinker type who I met at the archery range and whose defense shield was finally broken when I offered her Jelly Bellies. {I often shoot while eating candy.}
If I were back in high school, I would definitely hang out with her.)
SONG: Modern Creatures - “The Inside”
I was happy yesterday to hear that Allie Brosh had returned from a nearly two year absence from her blog Hyperbole and a Half. I don’t know if many of you follow her, but she’s got the knack to capture gestures and tell stories so well that it makes me hum inside knowing that she’s in the world. It’s perplexing because for someone who makes me so happy she’s so very NOT happy in her life, and she’s turning it over slowly…hopefully to fix or rearrange something to be “happy” again.
I hope she figures it out. She’s pretty amazing.
SONG: The Saints - “Stranded”

I don’t even know what you’re implying, if it’s a compliment or a dig.
