i obsessively eat dry breakfast cereal out of coffee cups. it turns out that i am prone to horrific nightmares when the oven is on. my skin is made of elastic paper, and my veins are disproportionately large for my hands. i once tore an accordion in half because i was so excited about the noises it was making. i love finding people who understand what i mean when i speak in run-on root-system metaphors about yucca plants, wisdom teeth, and dollar weeds. one day i will live in the ocean and filter-feed, but not today.
favorite sounds: high heels on a hard floor in a hallway. descending sneaker footsteps in a stairwell. water dripping on plastic bags. that fish vase at bev's grandmother's house. eyes blinking. scissor noises. broken toy pianos. moo cans. spilling chain. coins falling into a pile. tapping on pipes with a piece of metal. wind through leaves or tall grass. branches breaking. ripping paper. snow falling. rubber bands. springs. breaking glass. coffee beans/dry lentils being poured. squishing mud. splatters. wings flapping. throwing large rocks in a lake.
i really, really love art. i especially love the works of:
the dada period, marcel dzama, beth cavener stichter, joe sorren, joel-peter witkin, jiri barta, stasys eidrigevicius, odd nerdrum, diane arbus, marcel duchamp, man ray, auguste rodin, jonathan weiner, arthur ganson, jay ryan, tim hawkinson, edward gorey, eugenio recuenco, shawn tan, dave mckean, jessica joslin, sarina brewer, richard barnes, mark ryden, helmut newton...
SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION!

contrast and resolution are much better over there, i promise...

people who know the difference between a drawing of a hat and a drawing of a boa constrictor with an elephant inside. i would also like to meet a very nice lemur... or a rock, if the rock liked coffee and good conversation.
tous les noms sont déjà pris... pfff...:

lots and lots.

television is horrifying, and it is not allowed in my house.
books are the greatest.
carmen amaya, crayon, mothra, reishi, and nori. nori will always be more well-read than i.
